New Gatchaman Merchandise Coming In August Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

Hi all!

A small pile of new Gatchaman merchandise featuring the classic versions of the characters is coming this August -- perhaps not too surprising, since this will coincide with the promotion for the live action movie. Regardless, it's nice to see the original versions of our heroes getting some attention as well. What all is coming? Well, we have the following:

Smart Card Sticker Set

(893 yen per set of two)

 


Hand-Held Fan

(1,200 yen)

 


Mug

(1,200 yen)

 


Button Set

(1,000 yen for a set of 5 buttons)

 


Bird Head Pin

(1,300 yen)

 


Golden Stickers

(2 types, 500 yen apiece)

Bird Head

 

Silhouette

 


Clear File

(2 types, 368 yen apiece)

Type A

 

Type B

 


All of these items are coming from the good folks at Chara-Ani (http://www.chara-ani.com/). They're only available for preorder in Japan, but I'm sure that they will eventually turn up for sale on either Yahoo! Japan Auctions (Where they can be purchased through any of the various proxy services) or eBay.

Cool stuff! I'm with you, TJ...numbered shirts would be nice! I'd love to have a nice wristband replica, too...one that lights up and makes the little beeping sound (you know the one)...LOL!

I like the pin and the mug.

I wish they'd think about the international audience. (Americans are always getting in trouble for not thinking globally, after all.)

You're right, Ame. On one hand, we're told we live in a global economy, but on the other hand, we can't get globally produced products.

Hi all!

It turns out that CD Japan, a Japan-based company that has an English language website for ease of use by non-Japanese fans, is going to be carrying all of the new Gatchaman goodies that Chara-Ani is releasing. You can easily find them all by searching "Gatchaman" from the CD Japan homepage.

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/

I've ordered from CD Japan many times before, and I can vouch for their being a reliable and trustworthy business. So, if there's any of these items you would like to get, this will likely be the easiest way for you to do so!

So glad to hear about CD Japan! If things work out, this might be my first purchase sine moving into the new place!

Thank you! Thank you! Oh, thank you!

Yes, I did. I ordered one of each of these items when they were announced, and received them at the end of August. With CD Japan being an English language site, there was no difficulty in placing an order.

Goodness James--you really cleaned up! Smile thumbsup2

Unfortunately, I didn't see these listings until fairly recently (go-figure!). I can see that you need to order early, as most of the items sold out during the pre-order process. Lesson learned!

Also, what exactly are those "clear files"? (i.e. what are they printed on, etc). I've not heard that term before.

EDIT: Answered my own question, I see it's printed on PVC. Guess it's like a decal.

Yes, they're printed on plastic, but they're not decal. The clear files are two sheets of plastic sealed together on two edges. The other two edges are left open so you can put sheets of paper inside them, like a file folder.

Very interesting! (It's kind of like a sleeve then, I would think). I never would have guessed that! Smile

shows there is still a lot of demand for Gatch products out there, if they sell out in pre-orders!

Well, actually that was just my assumption as to what happened. LOL. (i.e.: Probably only so many of each item was made and once pre-orders were taken, that was it.)

A lot of the items James listed are sold out (even though they were only released at the end of August). Frown
