That's a lot of toy packaging! Japanese toy companies used to be known for their more flexible price points and gorgeous box art; this was even the case when I was collecting Transformers. Sadly, this just isn't the case anymore; when Takara became Takaratomy, the MBA disease turned their local market releases mostly into Hasbro-releases as-is.
Lots of disaster imagery; the highway-as-a-boat is new to me. The "Ark of Space" with people being held back at gunpoint was particularly entertaining.
