Despite Daft Punk’s music being on hold indefinitely, the nostalgia surrounding the legendary duo continues to thrive. Fans are being transported back into the anime sci-fi realm of Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem, now airing in 4K in theaters worldwide. To celebrate this global cinematic event, Tokyo’s GEEKS RULE has launched a special capsule collection inspired by the 2003 film and its renowned supervisor, Leiji Matsumoto.
The collection features five limited edition t-shirts, three of which showcase imagery from Interstella 5555, including the iconic blue characters and biographical details about the late Matsumoto, who was a significant influence on Daft Punk. One shirt displays the band’s logo from the Discovery era, while another highlights the artwork from the “Drumless” edition of Random Access Memories, the duo’s final album.
Due to the high demand for this exclusive release, purchasing options are limited for fans outside of Tokyo. The merchandise will be available for sale on Saturday, December 14th at physical stores in the Japanese capital. Additionally, an online lottery will be held on Sunday for fans to potentially acquire one of these unique items.
