About

The key to success for toy companies is their product but also their IP. Bandai Co. excels in both, as they have some of the best-known characters in their roster. Characters that you can now meet.

The head office of the toy company is mostly serious business, but in this case they have a large museum in their lobby showing the evolution of their toys, as well as their most popular products. Outside of the building is a row of characters including Godzilla, Goku, and Shin Chan, exhibited as life-sized polymer statues.
