JALECO's Famikase & Snipers Lurking in Various Places are Gacha! Wacky Kaiyama's Latest Gacha Exploration No. 88

The other day, I had the opportunity to participate in Koshiro Matsumoto's TV program "Koshiro Matsumoto ga Numaru" (BS Shochiku), in which we had a showdown project at a gacha specialty store.

The item that came up was the "Q-B-B Baby Cheese Ring Collection," which was the first item we tried. Koshiro-san laughed hysterically! I was able to win over Mr. Matsumoto with this move.

One month after that ....... I received a thank you from a person who saw the show. The sender was Peanut Club! To my surprise, it was the maker of "Q-B-B Baby Cheese Ring Collection". They had recently entered the capsule toy industry with a main focus on selling prize products for crane games. We also had a chance to talk with them about various other things.

We thought this was a good opportunity for us, so we would like to take a deeper look into the wonderful items of the Peanuts Club.

And due to popular demand, we have decided to resell them again! We will also be digging deeper into the Sniper, released by Panda's Hole, which is rapidly gaining fans. So, here we go! Bakyuu!

JALECO Game Cassette Mascot Peanuts Club: 400 yen, 5 kinds in total

I remember JALECO, a game maker, releasing some pretty sharp games back in the days of the Famicom (NES). There were a few games that were so sharp that they were treated as crap games. In a good way, this game maker left a traumatic impression on many game kids and is still very popular today.

Unfortunately, JALECO itself ceased to exist in 2014, but the rights have been acquired by City Connection, which is now vigorously developing remade games and related goods.

This time, the NES cartridge of such classic game software has been made into a palm-sized mascot measuring 3.5 x 5.5 cm! The stickers on the front and back of the cartridge have also been meticulously reproduced. Even the logo stamped on the top of the cartridge and the terminal where everyone blew on it have been faithfully reproduced. The coloring of the cartridge has also been perfectly reproduced, and the attention to detail and attention to detail is sure to make your tear gland collapse.

The ball key chain also comes with an acrylic charm featuring a flyer or key visual from the game, which I think is a high point for fans of the game.

Let's check them out one by one.

1 Ninja Jajamaru-kun

Oh yeah! This deep purple cassette! I played it! I shuriken shuffled! I also played a lot of his brother "Ninja-kun" ("Ninja-kun" was released by UPL). The illustration of the cassette is quite fanny, but I vividly remember that I felt a gap between the game and the 2-headed character.

2 Burn! Professional Baseball (red/black)

At the time, I went to Ameyoko in Ueno, Tokyo, on a high school excursion and bought it in a bundle with other software! It was a game where a player with a super batting average hit a home run with a bunt. I remember how moved I was when I heard the player's voice on TV. I was also impressed by the particularity of the red cartridge in the early stages of its release and the black cartridge in the later stages!

3 Exelion

This is the only software in the lineup that I had not played at the time. It was a very advanced vertical shooter at the time of its release, with a 3D feel, and it also featured a unique inertial control feel.

4 City Connection

The stylish illustrations, which look like city pop record jackets, are emo and full of 80's taste. The Honda City, the model for the Clarisse car, was the subject of a popular commercial that used the words "City, City, City. The Clarisse car, controlled by the player, was moving around and collecting items as if it were alive.

The illustrations of the girls were so cute! Was she in the game? I don't remember.

At the time, I was often scolded for "playing games all the time. Various memories come back to me. You want to remember the thrill of that time again! Attach it to your bag, keys, or anywhere you like, and enjoy the fun of wearing it around your neck.

Miniature Sniper 3 Takara Tomy Arts (Panda's Hole) 300 yen, 6 kinds in total

The sniper ...... lurks in various places because of his job. This time, too, they are mixed in with various scenes of daily life. In this reprinted part 3, you can ask yourself, "How did he get in there? "Why are you there?" "No, no, no, if we hide in a place like this, we'll make ourselves look tight!" The lineup is one of the biggest ever. It's a hard world ...... that we have to carry out such tough requests.

Snow Dome Sniper.


Where do you get in there? Perhaps inadvertently mixed in during the manufacturing process? Did he sneak in with his magician-like skills? Kneeling next to the Eiffel Tower in sniper pose. I'm sure the bullets I shot would definitely ricochet back to me. ...... The way he still faithfully carries out his mission, combined with the handwritten "PARIS" on the base painted in the style of the French flag, makes us feel a sense of melancholy.

Shichimi Sniper

The sniper appears from the overflowing container of shichimi! It is so spicy that it has almost no fighting ability. Let's think about where to hide out a little more!

Mamalade Sniper

Poking his head out of a jar of marmalade, he strikes a sniper's pose. The marmalade goo makes the gun almost useless. I'm too naive to think that way. Only marmalade.

Proposal Sniper.

From the ring case, boom, right into your chest. The person expecting an engagement ring is going to give you a slap in the face as vigorous as a shotgun. After that, I have a feeling that there's no pun intended waiting for you. ...... Never a bright future for the two of you? Burn!

Shell sniper.

Cicada shells can be found quite often in the neighborhood park. Nice color and texture.

He peeks his face out of it and poses as a sniper. If you look closely, it looks like a special vehicle that snipers ride in. All the snipers are performing their missions in harsh environments, but I think this sniper is the best of them all.

As the series goes on, you'll find yourself saying, "From there? Why the hell not? I can't help but to say, "Why? Is this the magic of the panda hole? It's a joke, yet it is not at all elaborate. This modeling ability is remarkable. Seriously goofing around. I love capsule toys like this!
