Bandai revealed that it will release new acrylic stands featuring heroines from Konami’s Tokimeki Memorial via its Gashapon vending machines. The former has also opened early bird sales for the products via the Gashapon Online website.
This collection will feature a total of 14 heroines from the first-ever Tokimeki Memorial entry. Even though Konami is already working on the Nintendo Switch remaster Forever With You Emotional which will include a more modern art style option, these stands will use the pixel art used in the original PC Engine release in 1994 and the PlayStation 1 port in 1995.
People can spend 400 yen to obtain a random item in the early bird sales. While most of the characters will have the same drop rate of 7.2%, Yoshio Saotome will have a slightly lower rate at just 6.4%.
Here is the full list of Tokimeki Memorial characters featured in this lineup:
- Shiori Fujisaki
- Mio Kisaragi
- Yuina Himoo
- Ayako Katagiri
- Saki Nijino
- Yukari Koshiki
- Nozomi Kiyokawa
- Mira Kagami
- Yuko Asahina
- Megumi Mikihara
- Yumi Saotome
- Miharu Tatebayashi
- Rei Ijuin
- Yoshio Saotome
The early purchases for Tokimeki Memorial acrylic stands are available until December 1, 2024. Bandai will ship the products in late February 2025. The company will also release physical Gashapon machines featuring the lineup in late January 2025.
