SuperGroupies x "Metaphor: ReFantazio" Merch Revealed: Resonant Vessel AirPods Case Limited to 500 Worldwide

ATLUS RPG Metaphor: ReFantazio is getting a fresh wave of collaboration merch. Japanese brand SuperGroupies has transformed the Resonant Vessel, the key item associated with awakening Archetypes in the game, into an AirPods Pro 2 case limited to just 500 units worldwide. A second item, a themed pocket watch, draws inspiration from a familiar sight on the protagonist’s journey. Both products opened for preorder on November 11, 2026.

The Resonant Vessel case recreates the in-game item with a semi-three-dimensional design, turning one of the game’s signature awakening visuals into an everyday accessory. Each case includes a limited-edition collector card printed with a unique serial number. It is priced at ¥5,500 and does not include the AirPods Pro 2 earbuds.

The pocket watch takes its cues from the Gauntlet Runner, the party’s mobile base. Its antique-gold cover features a frame resembling the vehicle’s window, with the protagonist pictured inside reading a book. A miniature charm representing his fairy companion, Gallica, hangs beside it. Open the cover and the dial reveals a map of the United Kingdom of Euchronia. The hour markers use the game’s distinctive typeface, while the hour and minute hands reference its on-screen interface, capturing the party’s journey across the kingdom.


SuperGroupies previously released a protagonist-inspired trench coat, shoulder bag, and a book-shaped light modeled after the Fantasy Novel. This new collection shifts the spotlight to in-game artifacts and travel motifs, reimagining them as portable accessories and collectibles. The pocket watch can also be attached to a bag using its chain.

The pocket watch is priced at ¥20,900. Preorders for both items close at 12:00 p.m. on December 7, 2026, with shipping scheduled for early May 2027. They will be available through the SuperGroupies website, the animate Online Shop, and animate stores across Japan. Physical samples are also on display at the animate Ikebukuro Flagship Store, giving shoppers a closer look at the designs.
