Japan's BellFine company, known for releasing numerous video game characters, is re-releasing the classic video game character "Pac-Man" from its soft vinyl series "Soft B". This revised and improved version will be part of the smaller-sized "SoftB Half" series, priced at 6,930 JPY, and is scheduled for release in September 2024.
Created and released by NAMCO in 1980, "Pac-Man" achieved immense popularity and unprecedented success upon its debut during an era when video games were not yet widespread. It is widely recognized by the gaming industry as one of the world's most classic games. The appearance of its protagonist is often used as a symbol representing video games, and even as a mascot. Pac-Man remains highly popular to this day, frequently appearing in promotions and events.
The SoftB Half Pac-Man, released this time, stands approximately 15 cm tall. Compared to the regular-sized version released in 2023, it is about half the size, making it easier to carry or display. You can pose it with other video game-related objects or backgrounds for a more atmospheric display, allowing Pac-Man's playful pose, with one hand on his hip, to bring you a full sense of gaming joy.
