Hi all!

Yes, it’s a real shame that they’ve never made figures of Katse. Except for all those times when they did.

Yujin Gashapon figure

 


Banpresto keychain

 


Bullmark Soft Vinyl

 


Banpresto plush

 


Lawsons Tatsunoko Hero

 


Pokka Coffee Giveaway Figure

 


Circle K Gatchaman Figures

 


Diamond Select Battle of the Planets Figures

 

 


Bootleg Fuerza G Figures from Mexico

 


Musashiya Gatchaman Garage Kits

 

 

 


These are just the ones that came to me off the top of my head, so there are probably a few I’ve missed. And this doesn’t even get into non-figure items like the charm, the bust, the cosplay outfit, and the ton of Katse-themed items that came as a result of his popularity in Good Morning Gatchaman. So, if you want Katse items, they’re certainly out there to find!

If anyone has a right to complain, it would be the fans of Gel Sadra and Egobossler. Even Nambu and Red Impulse have more merchandise than they do!

I misread it first as figures too, James, but she said figmas. Smile I've never seen some of those so that was educational, though!

I'd give my entire monthly wage to get that one (seriously), but I know it's not going to happen. -_- And not only that. It's difficult to live in the boonies completely out of reach of couriers.


You know about the Diamond Select figure, right?

Note that the version with the interchangeable heads was never officially released. But the regular one (with the Turtle King) is available on EBay.

Me too, in fact I missed out on winning a bid for one when the auction ended about half an hour before I got home from work one evening......

I have got the Turtle King Katse BNIB instead though Smile

Ahh, you are correct, of course. My mistake. Of course, since Figma hasn't released any Gatchaman figures, not even of Ken, it's doubtful that they'll be dong a Katse anytime soon.

As others have noted, the Katse with interchangeable heads was indeed released. The only figure that was never released was the helmetless version of Tiny.

On the keychain, Katse looks like he's/she's singing opera.

Hi all!

Sentinel has released a short promotional video for their Ken figure, with a small mention of the Joe figure at the end. It can be seen here:

I like that a lot of the poses they show echo poses in the actual series. Smile

I agree with Chris, they certainly worked to get some in-character poses! I find it interesting that the wings can apparently shift position,
