The TOHO theater STORE, an e-commerce site that sells theater merchandise, is now selling two limited edition color Middle Size Gamera figures by manufacturer CCP JAPAN Co., This is the first limited edition collaboration product between the Middle Size Gamera Series and TOHO theater STORE.
Based on the concept of “an old-school/new-school, yet slightly old-fashioned soft vinyl monster series,” the popular Middle Size figure line measure an average 12 cm in height and fits in the palm of a hand, making them easy to collect. This is a collector's series by CCPJAPAN for soft vinyl and monster lovers, with a retro-style deformation that gives a nostalgic and somewhat “Showa-era retro” feel to the figures.

The clear blue paint job on the torso and the balance of the limbs that still have transparent molding give the coloring a vague atmosphere. The silver paint job applied from above further enhances the glittering texture.
The sharp-angled shell, head, and other characteristics of Gamera (1999) are incorporated into the design. Be sure to enjoy the special and beautiful coloring of Gamera that is only available at TOHO theater STORE!

About CCPJAPAN
CCPJAPAN's Unique Realism with Soft Vinyl
Soft vinyl is a half-century old technique in Japan. It is a hollow molded product obtained by polymerizing vinyl chloride monomer by pouring it into a mold and heating it, and the doll made through this process is called soft vinyl.
Hollow, lightweight, and unbreakable are the greatest characteristics of soft vinyl. The production speed is fast, and the cost of molds is inexpensive, making it a molding method that can produce a relatively small number of products for a small number of needs.
CCP has continued to produce works of manga, anime, and special effects, representative of Japanese POP culture, under the theme of “preserving them for posterity as three-dimensional materials. CCPJAPAN has continued to produce works based on the theme of “preserving Japanese pop culture, manga, anime, and special effects works as three-dimensional materials for posterity. Compared to fragile ceramics, CCPJAPAN produces mainly soft vinyl works that will last for hundreds or even thousands of years.
About 20 years ago, CCPJAPAN established a method of expressing realistic details and molding techniques for soft vinyl, and through its advanced coloring techniques, CCPJAPAN's works aim for greater realism. We hope you will experience the realism and unique sensibility of CCPJAPAN through our works.
