Tenkuu no Shiro Laputa - Souzou Galleria - Flaptter (Bandai)Bandai

Bandai's Souzou Galleria line brings the Flaptter to life from Studio Ghibli's beloved film Castle in the Sky (Tenkuu no Shiro Laputa). Standing approximately 421mm tall, this detailed model kit is constructed from ABS, LED, PET, and PVC materials. In Castle in the Sky, the Flaptter is an autonomous flying machine used by the military forces led by Colonel Muska in their pursuit of the floating island of Laputa. These mechanical craft are central to the film's climactic sequences, representing the technological might of the government forces seeking to harness Laputa's ancient power. The film follows young protagonists Pazu and Sheeta as they race to protect the legendary floating castle from those who would misuse its destructive capabilities. The Souzou Galleria line is known for its detailed recreations of Ghibli mechanical designs, and this Flaptter model continues that tradition with impressive scale and LED integration.
