Digimon_Ivory_Version2

Bandai Digimon Tamagotchi Virtual Pet, Japanese Version 2, in what is now... 'Ivory White'.

 

My first version 2 and perhaps my most prized digimon (with the exception of my first version 1). Arriving tightly packed via mail order in the fall of 1999, she became my pride and joy and the envy of my friends. Up until then, the oceanic region of the world had only ever heard about version 2 and 3 digimon on the internet with many enthusiasts claiming that they were a hoax. However, upon the arrival of my brand new boxed authentic Japanese version 2 digimon, she and I became the topic of discussion of all digimon-owning clicks at school with many having to see to believe.

 

To this day she has brought me countless fond memories and nostalgia. Her once pristine Himalayan white finish has now been left tainted with a somewhat stucco appearance from having to endure numerous battles - some victorious, and some humbly defeated.

 

Today, she remains untouched, a fallen warrior, a relic even. Perched proudly at the top of my bookshelf, she remains with her slightly yellowed and worn features giving her a somewhat antique appearance that will remind me of an era that once was… and is never to return.
