Bandai's Gashapon division is set to release a hilarious new product line based on the classic anime "Sgt. Frog" (also known as "Keroro Gunso" in Japan). The new "Sgt. Frog Flocked Afro Character Figures" capsule toys will be available for 400 JPY per turn, with a planned release in the third week of September 2026.
These "Sgt. Frog Flocked Afro Character Figures" bring to life the absurd afro hairstyles often seen in the anime. The collection features all five members of the Keroro Platoon: Sergeant Keroro, Private Second Class Tamama, Corporal Giroro, Sergeant Major Kururu, and Lance Corporal Dororo, each sporting a wild afro. Standing approximately 5.7 cm tall, the figures capture the characters in dynamic dancing poses. Star-shaped clear stands are included to ensure stable display, even for their off-balance, lively dance moves. The standout feature of this series is the flocked material used for the afros, providing a fuzzy visual effect and a soft, tactile feel. Furthermore, the heads are designed with ball joints, allowing collectors to adjust their gaze and create a variety of comical expressions. These figures are incredibly fun and ridiculous—you'll definitely want to collect the entire set!
