Bandai has announced the release of an exciting new prop replica from the popular anime Detective Conan: the Kaito Kid Card Gun. This highly detailed replica allows fans to experience one of Kaito Kid’s signature gadgets, with the added fun of firing cards like the iconic phantom thief. Priced at ¥7,290 (Approximately $49), the item will be released in March 2025.
Kaito Kid, a fan-favorite character from Detective Conan, is the alter ego of Kaito Kuroba. After discovering that his father, Toichi Kuroba, was the original Kaito Kid, Kaito takes on his father’s legacy as the elusive master thief. Known for his magic tricks, disguise skills, and his ability to outsmart even the sharpest detectives, Kaito Kid frequently targets precious gems and jewels, leaving behind mysterious advance notices to taunt the police.
The Kaito Kid Card Gun prop replica faithfully brings one of Kaito Kid’s famous tools to life. Measuring approximately 26 cm in length (Approximately 10.2 inches), the gun features a sleek silver finish that mimics the metal look. It comes equipped with two accessories: a special Kaito Kid-themed playing card (Ace of Spades) and a replica of one of his iconic calling cards, the “advance notice.” Both can be loaded into the gun and fired, replicating the thrilling card-shooting scenes from the series. Whether or not you can make the card spin and curve like Kaito Kid is up to your skill!
