Let’s go with the “Gundam” x “Poteco” collaboration! Comes with stickers depicting Zaku and Z’Gok♪
Welcome back to the I Am Anime website
A new product “Gundam Poteco” is now available, a collaboration between “Mobile Suit Gundam” and Tohato’s sweets “Poteco”. It will go on sale in sweets departments of mass retailers nationwide from February 3, 2025.
“Mobile Suit Gundam” is a robot anime that has been broadcast since 1979. As a TV series, a total of 43 episodes were produced, and in addition, it is a masterpiece that continues to be developed and created in various ways, including a movie version and OVA (original video animation), and the anime series is celebrating its 45th anniversary.
Set in Universal Century 0079, it deals with a variety of themes such as realistic human drama and war, revolutionizing robot anime and becoming a monumental figure in Japanese anime.
Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX has been announced as the latest work in the Gundam series. Prior to the broadcast of the TV series, a theatrical advance version of “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-”, with some episodes reconstructed for theatrical screening, will be released on January 17, 2025. This is a new Gundam series created by the first collaboration between Studio Color, which is responsible for the “Evangelion” series, and Sunrise (a production brand of Bandai Namco Film Works), which is responsible for the “Gundam” series.
A collaboration between “Mobile Suit Gundam” and “Poteco”, which has been on the market since 1973 and continues to be loved as a national sweet. A dream collaboration between two major brands from the same era has been realized as “Gundam Poteco”.
The flavor I’m curious about is the black pepper flavor, which is also popular as a snack. The result is a highly fragrant dish.
In addition, an original sticker drawn specifically for this product is included, and an explanation of the mobile suit is printed on the back. There are 24 types in total, and rare metallic stickers with different sparkles may be included.
In addition, to commemorate the release, the “Gundam Poteco Special Seal File Present Project” will begin on the release date, in which you will receive a special sticker file if the item contains an “Atari Seal”. This is a special sticker file limited to this project, and it is an item that can store 48 stickers in one book like an illustrated book. You can also enjoy collecting stickers while aiming for Atari stickers.
“Gundam Poteco” will be on sale from February 3, 2025 in the candy departments of mass retailers nationwide. It is an open price.
