Just picked up this variant of the Pentel Smash. Does anyone know when it was released and when they will stop making it?

Hello Kenzo, nice pencil you got there
Oh I think you’re asking about this specific model, right?

Post a picture of the back of the package. The model number is towards the bottom and will start with Q1005-****. This will help. But usually the limited versions only last a short time on the market, especially if it was a store collab. I think this one is a Tsutaya collaboration due to the kanji down the side of the packaging.

Do you have the link to the listing?
Unfortunately, I do not. I bought this pencil in person. However I did try looking up something like “black and silver Pentel Smash”, but I could not find any that looked like this one.
I thought this might have been it. But at a closer glance, the font that shows the lead hardness is actually in white. Mine is in black.
The model number is not one that I have seen. The combination of component colors is basically a repeat from several past iterations. I will keep an eye for it so I can purchase.

FWIW, I only have 1 Smash limited that came with a ‘Z’ as the first identifier. Mine was a Q1005Z-Z Korea limited silver
