Banpresto showers Gundam fans with gadgetry, doodads

Banpresto-Bandai-Gundam-White-Base-USB.jpg

Pictured above is the iconic SCV-70 White Base from the wildly popular Gundam series of Japanese anime. While you might expect such a cool looking ship to do something like fire missiles or hold a few toy mechs, the White Base is actually taking on the rather mundane roll of USB air ionizer this time around.

There's also a few regular offerings like a USB hub in the shape of a futuristic remote control-looking thing, and a pot for plants fashioned after the head of a giant robot for the gardener in you. Last on the list of Gundam-themed odds and ends are pens shaped like space modules, a relaxing mask that doesn't look relaxing at all and, of course, a few mugs.

We probably won't see these doodads in any of our stores, but if you've got a giant mecha fan in the family and you're due for a trip to Japan, the gallery below will help you get a start on a gift list.
