Apa Hotel is set to release amusement prizes featuring its President, Fumiko Motoya (77), known as “Apa President,” through Banpresto. Starting in August, the line-up will include items such as the “Apa President Amulet-Style Acrylic Plate Keyholders” (6 varieties), the travel-friendly “Apa President Clip Collection” (6 varieties), and the big visual towels featuring signboards and curry designs (4 varieties). From September, they will also offer “Apa President Positive Message Hologram Can Badges” (10 varieties) and the “Apa President Star-Shaped Carabiner Clear Pouches” (4 varieties), which can also be used as coin cases.
Featuring the instantly recognizable Apa President, who often appears on large billboards and advertisements saying, “I am the president,” wearing a large green hat and sparkling attire, the five kinds of items are designed to potentially bring the “good luck” associated with the Apa President just by wearing them.
A BANDAI SPIRITS planner conceived the idea after feeling a passionate gaze from the portrait of Apa President printed on a bottle of “Apa Hotel’s Natural Water” during a stay at an Apa Hotel. The straight gaze from the Apa Hotel signboards featuring the President in various locations also inspired the product line.
