Bandai Namco dominated a large section of the show floor at NYCC this year. One area was almost entirely dedicated to fans getting an early chance to play the upcoming RPG One Piece Odyssey ahead of its January 2023 release. A limited edition bundle for the game featuring a Luffy statue was showcased at the booth. The other half was full of toys from various franchises and vendors.
Convention exclusives included a gold Shenron statue from Dragon Ball Super and a Naruto Sage of Six Paths figure from Naruto Shippuden. Figures from Bleach, Demon Slayer, and Yu-Gi-Oh! were all on display as well. Fun and easy to build models were on sale for price points under $20.
Stranger Things had a large presence at the booth — and I’m not just talking about the life-sized Demogorgon statue. Plushies, actions figures, and retro toys were all on display. Pokemon Nanoblocks covered one of the walls, and in front of it stood a three-foot-tall Pikachu statue.
My favorites, of course, were the statues of Malenia and Ranni from Elden Ring. They also displayed shirts, a gaming mousepad, and a fantastic looking artbook from From Software’s hit. Check everything out in the gallery below!
