Unboxing Redux

Over the years I have changed how I had unboxed my items through the Normanic Vault, and every time I unbox a title I think to myself that “this is the best way I could represent this particular set”. Eventually every time I upgrade tech, this is not necessarily the case.

As I have been unboxing the likes of anime, films and video games since 2013, these sort of posts can age and when they age, they age pretty badly. Which is why when I upgraded to my latest phone and utilised its camera, I was shocked by how well it represented the items. I have gone back and updated unboxings in the past, but this has taken the look to the next level.

Therefore since late 2019 I introduced a new section to my Normanic Vault called Unboxing Redux, which remasters many unboxings I had done back when the blog was through Blogger and adds a number of adjustments; from new/more accurate photos, better information of the product and any misc. pieces of detail that I might add.

Most of the items unboxed during the 2013 to 2018 period will return to this part of the hood, but it can take time and effort to get it done right. I should also clarify that many of them are no longer in print due to running out of stock or licensing restrictions.

Below is the list of every item that had received the Redux treatment, enjoy!
