Adults 18+ only. This is a factual catalogue comparison for Australian adult customers of Melvixa. It does not recommend tobacco use, rank products, or make health, safety or cessation claims. Prices and stock are live conditions, so the linked product pages remain the authoritative records at the time you order.
Two Marlboro cartons in the Melvixa catalogue carry flavour-style names that can look alike in a search result: Marlboro Vista Tropical Splash KS Box Cigarettes and Marlboro Ice Blast Mega 8mg (Japan) Cigarettes. They are separate listings with different SKUs, different prices and different product URLs. If you are trying to tell them apart before ordering, this guide shows the exact identity fields to compare.
The quick answer
When checked on 7 August 2026, both listings were marked in stock and sold as one carton containing 10 packs. Their current sale prices differed by A$16.00:
- Marlboro Vista Tropical Splash (SKU SS-330): A$224.00 on sale, regular price A$280.00.
- Marlboro Ice Blast Mega 8mg (Japan) (SKU SS-278): A$240.00 on sale, regular price A$300.00.
Because both products are adult tobacco catalogue records, only the complete listing name together with the SKU confirms which one you are looking at. The word “Marlboro” alone, or a shared flavour-style word, is not enough to identify a carton.

How to tell the two listings apart
Three identity fields separate these cartons reliably:
- Complete title wording: Vista Tropical Splash uses “KS Box” in the listing name, while the other listing records “8mg (Japan)” in its title. Neither phrase is a style rating or a quality claim; it is simply how Melvixa records each catalogue entry.
- SKU: SS-330 belongs to the Vista Tropical Splash listing; SS-278 belongs to the Ice Blast Mega (Japan) listing. The SKU is the decisive identifier when a shortened name or an old price is all you have.
- Current price: at the 7 August 2026 check, Vista Tropical Splash was A$224.00 on sale and Ice Blast Mega (Japan) was A$240.00 on sale. A matching price alone never proves two records are the same product.
Which carton should you open first?
If your search matches one exact product name, open that Vista Tropical Splash product page or the Ice Blast Mega (Japan) product page directly. If you are comparing the whole Marlboro range, browse the Marlboro category. For the full adult tobacco catalogue, use the Melvixa shop and the brand catalogue page.
