Two pieces of merch news from the
@taiko_team Twitter feed: First is an interactive picture book titled
Taiko no Tatsujin Taiko-playing Picture Book (太鼓の達人 たいこあそびえほん). The book itself can play a total of 20 songs including Yokai Watch (Geragerapo no Uta, Dun Dun Doobie Zubah!) and Frozen (Let It Go) origins, and kids can play Taiko sounds from an extended panel with the melody, stress-free unlike normal Taiko games.
Next is a Namco-commission to character merch producer
Cospa, to produce two designs of Taiko no Tatsujin T-shirt: a grey design with a headphoned Don-chan face (that also has a kids size), and a white design with large text of "DON DOKODON" and little Don-chan faces (that doesn't have kids size). The T-shirts will be exclusively on preview sale at the Tokyo Game Show 2015 at the Cospa Booth later this month, and is opening pre-orders in before the official public release.
