Slightly tangential to dinosaur toys, but I've ordered my first Kaiyodo DinoTales figure (series 5 Protoceratops). I've seen in a few places that series 5 came as a promotional item with a lemon drink.

Telling a friend about it, she got really interested in the drink; she lived in Japan for a few years and was fond of a lemon drink while she was there, and was curious as to whether it was the same drink.

Does anyone have any more details about what drink the series 5 DinoTales figures were packaged with? And were other series packaged with the same drink, or with other products?
"The most popular exhibits in any natural history museum are, without doubt, the dinosaurs. These creatures' popularity grows each year, partly because of the recent resurgence of dinosaur movies, but also because a skeleton of a full-sized Tyrannosaurus rex still has the ability, even 65 million years after its death, to chill us to the bone." - Ray Harryhausen

The drink was C.C. Lemon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.C._Lemon

As far as I know, only Series 5 was sold that way. Series 1 at least was sold with chocolates; I'm not sure about the others. Series 6 and 7 were exclusive to Lawson convenience stores.

Thank you! CC Lemon was the drink she's a fan of, though she wasn't in Japan at the right time to have gotten any dinosaurs with hers.
