New AirPods Pro with ‘Year of the Dragon’ engraving are here. But there’s a catch.

Apple is selling some really cool-looking AirPods Pro right now, but you may not be able to buy them.

According to MacRumors, there’s a swanky new AirPods Pro model made to celebrate the imminent Lunar New Year in February, which will kick off the Year of the Dragon. There’s no functional difference between these AirPods Pro and the ones you may have bought last year, but there is an important aesthetic difference: There’s a cool dragon engraving on the charging case.

And now for the bad news. These AirPods are only on sale in east and southeast Asia, specifically in China, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Macao, Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea.

Maybe you can find a way to import them to the U.S., or maybe you already live in one of those places and can buy them the regular way. If not, though, you may have to just admire them from afar. It’s one unfortunate thing (on a very long list) about living in the U.S.: We don’t always get the coolest time-limited merch.
