Taiko merchandise....including underwear?


Just some of the weird and wonderful things with Taiko no Tatsujin plastered on it available for sale on Namco's website.
Alongside other more sensible things like the DS accessories, clay anime DVDs and soundtrack albums are a whole list of random things which wouldn't seem out of place in a Pokemon store (which by the way still holds the record for most number of random merchandise items ever made for a gaming franchise).

Even I had no idea there were Taiko-based snacks for sale! I thought that stuff was limited to just Pokemon.


Taiko-yaki snacks (filled with custard cream)

Not a tatacon. Well, it looks like one, but it plays standalone with built-in games.


Tubes of candy






Another Taiko electronic toy. You can actually see some of these on eBay too if you look hard enough. Turn it on and Don-chan will tap his legs. Tap along to him!

These and more can be found on this page. Thanks crystalsuicune and arien666 for finding this!
