Experience Your Childhood Dream: Become a Mazinger Z Pilot with Custom Figures!

Become a Mazinger Z Pilot: A Reality from a Dream

Have you ever dreamt of piloting your favorite giant robot from childhood anime? Now, thanks to Castem Co., a leading manufacturer based in Fukuyama, Hiroshima, you can turn that dream into reality. Starting December 3, 2025, Castem's gift shop, meta mate located in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, will offer a unique specialization and limited service, allowing fans to create their very own customized pilot figure of Mazinger Z at an affordable price of ¥33,000 (tax included).

Cutting-Edge Technology

Thanks to advanced digital technology and a state-of-the-art 3D scanner installed in the store, customers can have their entire body meticulously scanned to create an ultra-realistic figure. The unique service utilizes high-precision 3D data to capture body shape and color, which experienced digital sculptors will further refine. The figures are then produced using the top-of-the-line full-color 3D printer Stratasys J850. Notably, Castem is the only company in Japan to own three of these high-spec machines, allowing for unprecedented realism.

What's more, even Go Nagai, the original creator of Mazinger Z, has experienced this firsthand!

Unique Expertise

Since 2017, Castem has operated a brand named History Maker, specializing in creating realistic figures of celebrities and athletes. Through years of collaboration with famous personalities, they have honed their skill in product creation, which now translates into the incredible lifelike figures they offer today.

Pricing and Delivery

For this unique offering, the figures will start at ¥33,000 (tax included), with an estimated delivery time of 1.5 to 2 months—since each figure is made to order. This means customers will have to undergo the 3D scanning process at the store.

Gift Certificates: The Perfect Present

Looking for a unique gift for friends, family, or colleagues? Castem provides a special figurine voucher for those who wish to gift this extraordinary experience. Crafted from shining brass, the voucher adds a touch of elegance and uniqueness to any gift. Rest assured, the recipient will cherish this figurine for a lifetime. You can also purchase these vouchers through the official sales site.
