Additionally, the box includes an inner lining that can be used as a background for showcasing the model.

The inner lining features a city nightscape with a cyberpunk aesthetic, reminiscent of the visuals showcased in the official promotional PV. This design enhances the model's presentation, providing an immersive backdrop that complements the futuristic theme.

The back of each box features an illustrated diagram showing the components included inside. These diagrams provide a clear overview of the parts, making it easier for builders to identify and organize the pieces during assembly. This thoughtful design adds convenience and enhances the overall user experience.

The color pages of the instruction manual include detailed lore and background about Tastier. They explain how Tastier transitioned from a human body to a fully mechanical prosthetic form. This backstory adds depth to the model, immersing builders in the narrative and enhancing the connection to the character during the assembly process.

The set includes a first-edition bonus: a fabric cloak. This exclusive accessory adds an extra layer of customization and flair to the model, making it even more appealing for early buyers.

Opening the main body box reveals a thin plastic blueprint. This blueprint not only serves as a thematic addition to the set but also provides a detailed schematic of the Tastier mecha, further immersing builders in its futuristic design and backstory.

After removing the blueprint, the sprues, instruction manual, and other contents are neatly arranged underneath. The organized layout ensures that builders can easily access all the necessary parts and materials for assembly.
