The International Collectibles Manufacturer Rockets Into The WAX Blockchain

(Osaka, Japan) – April 21, 2022 – Today, X PLUS announced that they will be releasing their very first NFT collection exclusively on April 28th on the Worldwide Asset eXchange (WAX).  The debut digital collectibles launch features X PLUS’s original fictional character called Space Cyclop, a mysterious kaiju mascot that crash landed in the streets of Tokyo years ago.  X PLUS have long been recognized as a globally prominent producer of soft vinyl, hyper realistic toys and figures.

This drop marks X PLUS’s first endeavor into the world of digital collectibles on WAX. The Space Cyclop NFT Collection Series 1 will be available exclusively on the WAX blockchain starting April 28th at 9 AM PT.  A presale stress test will take place the day prior on April 27th on the X PLUS NFT Online Shop.

A total of 3,000 packs featuring different variations of the quirky Space Cyclop monster will be available with two different packs to choose from: a Standard pack consists of 5 cards and a Premium pack consists of 10 cards.  “Precious” cards can be utilized for redemption of physical soft vinyl Space Cyclop figures plus “Special” physical acrylic cards; a certain number of other unique NFTs can only be acquired by participating in crafting challenges. 

The Space Cyclop NFT Collection Series 1 drop includes “Common”, “Uncommon”, “Rare”, “Epic”, “Legendary”, “Special”, “Precious” and “Premium” rarities.  Six different Space Cyclop will be featured amongst the kaiju characters and are named Pinky, Jungle, Deep Sea, Corny, Toxic and Rainbow.  Avid collectors familiar with the loveable Space Cyclop can vie for different colored cards, monster poses, motion effects and holographic finishes.

For their new NFT collections, X PLUS has begun developing a mobile application which will allow users to view the 3D models, which they get access to via NFTs, on their phone.  On smartphones that support augmented reality (AR), the app will also provide a way to view the 3D models via AR.  The app will be released in Q4 2022, for Android and iOS.
