Japan's Bandai Co., Ltd.'s GASHAPON division has announced a new product based on the popular anime "Bocchi the Rock!" — the "Bocchi the Rock! Capsule Figure Collection" (tentative title). The suggested retail price is 500 JPY per capsule, with an anticipated release in late July 2024!
The Kessoku Band (結束バンド), formed by the four protagonists, means "cable tie" in Japanese. The "結束 (kessoku)" part means "unity" or "bond," while "バンド (bando)" from "cable tie" is pronounced the same as "band" (as in a musical group). Thus, Nijika chose this name, full of puns and positive connotations, for the band!
This Gashapon series features the protagonists in the outfits from Kessoku Band's first official stage performance in episode 8 of the anime! All band members wear Kessoku Band T-shirts designed by leader Nijika, each with their own unique touches, and are presented in super cute two-head-tall proportions, showcasing Kessoku Band's adorable energy! Four designs are available: "Hitori Gotoh," "Nijika Ijichi," "Ryo Yamada," and "Ikuyo Kita," all with equal distribution rates, giving collectors a chance to try their luck and bring the entire band home!
