Bandai launches Hololive wafer and Kamen Rider gashapon collectibles in Japan

Bandai announced the release of two new collectible product lines in Japan. The company will sell the "Hololive Production Wafer vol. 7" through national retailers in November 2026. The snack includes a cocoa‑cream wafer and a metallic card featuring one of 32 Hololive VTubers such as Usada Pekora, Houshou Marine and Laplace Darkness, each card bearing a handwritten comment from the talent. The pack is priced at ¥176 (tax included) and a bulk 20‑piece version is available for pre‑order.

In addition, Bandai will launch the "Ultimate Luminous Premium Kamen Rider" gashapon series in the fifth week of August 2026. The set contains five figures – the classic Kamen Rider Old 1 and Old 2 with light‑up eye units, and three Shocker soldier figures with rotating wrist joints. Each capsule costs ¥1,000 (tax included) and the figures are designed to recreate the iconic glowing eye effect from the series.
