The Hunt is On: Our 7 Favorite Newly Released Gachapon of February 2026
If you’ve been following the streets of Akihabara or scrolling through the latest Bandai drops this month, you already know: February 2026 is officially the month of the "weird and wonderful." The gachapon scene in Japan is currently going through a massive creative boom. We’re seeing a perfect mix of high-stakes anime collaborations, retro tech nostalgia, and that signature "bizarre" humor that only Japan can pull off. Whether you’re a hardcore collector looking for the next rare chase figure or just someone who wants a tiny, pixelated dog for your desk, there is something in the machines right now for everyone.
We’ve spent the last week turning dials and hunting down the best of the best to see which capsules are actually worth your 500 yen. From legendary gaming icons to interactive gadgets you can actually use, here are our 7 favorite newly released gachapon for February 2026!
7. Mosaic Dog
While the competition this month was stiff, this series is undoubtedly the most unique—and hilarious—release we’ve seen yet. Taking "dog-walking" to a surreal new level, these miniature pups feature a clever pixelated mosaic effect placed strategically over their "private" areas, mimicking the classic Japanese TV censorship style.
6. Dragon Quest Monsters Collectible Figurines
the Dragon Quest Monsters series. This set features an incredible lineup of iconic creatures, including several variations of the world-famous Slime, a towering Giant, and other fan-favorite monsters from the franchise.
Each figure captures the classic Akira Toriyama art style perfectly, bringing these pixelated memories into the palm of your hand. Whether you’re looking to build your own miniature army or just want a "Blue Slime" to hide on your bookshelf, this collection is an absolute must-have for any Dragon Quest enthusiast.
5. Itchy Dog Gacha Toy
Next up is another treat for the canine enthusiasts—a heartwarming collection of dogs scratching their ears. There is something so incredibly lifelike and charming about the poses in this series. Each miniature captures that perfectly relatable moment of a dog mid-scratch, complete with the tilted head and blissful expression.
4. Link Breath of The Wild Gacha Toy Figurine
This one is personally one of my favorites from the February lineup: the Legend of Zelda: Link gacha keychains. This series features Link in a charming, high-quality "chibi" style, with one version featuring him ready for action with his iconic bow in hand.
For the collectors who want something a bit more classic, there is also a Master Sword version that looks incredible dangling from a bag or set of keys. Given how massive the Zelda fanbase is, I can see these selling out quickly. If you see these in a machine, don't hesitate—grab them before they’re gone!
3. One Piece World Collectible Figures
Next in the lineup is a heavy hitter: the One Piece World Collectable Figure (WCF) Mini Tour series. This collection is a dream for Straw Hat fans, featuring Monkey D. Luffy in five iconic poses that capture his journey perfectly.
The real star of the show, however, is the rare figure of Luffy in his legendary "Gear 5" form. With its distinct white hair and "Joyboy" energy, this is the one everyone is going to be chasing. Whether you're a lifelong fan or just started the voyage, this set is a perfect way to bring the world of One Piece to your shelf
2. Minatare Boom Box Recorder
Next up is one of the coolest functional finds this month: the Mini Boombox collection. These tiny, retro-style players come in a vibrant variety of colors, but the real magic is the built-in "voice memo" feature.
You can actually record a short message and play it back at the touch of a button! It’s the perfect blend of nostalgic 80s design and modern interactive tech. Whether you want to leave a cute note for a friend or use it as a quirky desk accessory, this is a unique gift idea that definitely stands out from the usual capsule toys.
1. Monster Hunter Palico Collection
Last up for our 2026 gachapon update is a fan-favorite from the gaming world: the Monster Hunter Palico. These "Felyne" companions are legendary for supporting hunters in the field, and this capsule series captures them in all their armored glory.
We get it—if you aren’t a Monster Hunter fan, a cat in full plate armor might seem a bit specific. But honestly? If you like cats, these are still undeniably cute. With their determined expressions and high-detail tiny armor sets (like the iconic Rathalos or Zinogre gear), they make for perfect desk mascots. Whether you’re a veteran hunter or just a fan of "battle-ready" kittens, this Palico set is a high-quality finish to this month’s releases!
That's all for this update.
That’s a wrap on our February 2026 gachapon highlights! From retro tech to battle-ready cats, this month really delivered on the 'weird and wonderful' side of Japan. Whether you’re hunting for that rare Gear 5 Luffy or just want a tiny boombox for your desk, there’s no shortage of treasures to find.
