Gatchaman is one of the most influential animes ever, and the new Ken the Eagle statue from Prime 1 Studio is everything we’ve ever wanted.
Prime 1 Studio has gone deep into the history of anime and picked up a license to produce a Ken the Eagle statue from Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, or Battle of the Planets as it was known in some parts of the world.
