Bandai Namco has a series of gashapon figures in capsule machines in Japan called “Still Waiting for You” (Machiboke) that features original characters and ones from famous IP, and Danganronpa 2 is about to join that lineup. The five-figure collection is already available on Gashapon Online ahead of a debut in machines in Japan, and ones ordered from there arrive in February 2026. As this series of figures do end up appearing in Bandai Namco Gashapon storefronts worldwide, since it happened with the Inuyasha and Kinnikuman ones, we should see these in the US and Canada eventually too. For example, the Danganronpa 1 and 2 Reload Capsule Rubber Mascot keychains appeared everywhere.
Each of the characters in the Still Waiting for You Danganronpa 2 figure line is about an inch and a half tall (four centimeters). They are posed in such a way that they are sitting with their hands holding their knees, looking up at a person and waiting for them to respond or notice them. There are five possible options to randomly get, and there’s no “secret” character.
Here’s the list of options:
- Chiaki Nanami
- Hajime Hinata
- Mikan Tsumiki
- Monokuma
- Nagito Komaeda
And here’s a better look at the promotional image for them:
In addition to this, other new Danganronpa 2 character merchandise appeared in Japan. Village Vanguard offered a new collection with original designs.
This also happens ahead of Danganronpa 2 x 2. That’s the Switch and Switch 2 remake of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair. A new Monokuma voice actress was even revealed for that already.
The Still Waiting for You Danganronpa 2 figures are in Gashapon Online in Japan and are scheduled to ship in February 2026. They will also appear in capsule machines.
