Description

This listing is for a Japanese gashapon figurine of Funassy, the popular mascot of Funabashi City in Japan. The item is visible in its original transparent bag, accompanied by its illustrated paper leaflet, which is also stamped Bandai, a leading manufacturer in the world of Japanese toys and figurines.

The figurine has a compact and rounded shape, true to Funassy's distinctive design: an anthropomorphic yellow character, dressed in a blue tunic adorned with a small red heart on the side. The face features large round eyes, a smiling mouth, and slightly rosy cheeks, typical details of the character.

The piece shown here is fully visible from a side angle and partially from the front, revealing the entire tunic, arms and legs, as well as the facial expression. The leaflet provided in the background includes illustrations of the same character in different poses and Japanese inscriptions, with the Bandai brand clearly legible.

The set is presented in its original plastic packaging, sealed with a reference label. No additional accessories are visible in the photo. The figurine's finish shows vibrant paint and careful molding, typical of officially licensed Bandai productions.

Used item, sold as is. The figurine is kept in its original bag, never opened according to its visible appearance. The reference label is intact. No major defects are apparent on the visible side; the whole presents a beautiful general appearance.
