Sold only in convenience stores like 7-11 and Lawson, the compete set is kinda hard to find as most people are buying these for their morning caffeine jolts, and could give two hoots about the free figure attached to the top of the can.
My nephews were searching high and low for these everyday for the past few week for me and really hooked me up this time! The figs are highly detailed and made of a flexible rubber material.
Lots of neato can pics and other wacky Kinnikuman Coffee stuff at http://www.pokka.co..../090416_02.html

So did they come seperated in pieces like gashapon?

Man... I wish we had such amazing premiums in the states. Can you imagine if Kelloggs had taken advantage of the Pokemon craze 10 years ago? All they would have had to do was drop a mini Poke fig in every bag of cereal, and they would have made billions!

I am with you there mate. I would seriously buy just about any product if there was a neato premium included. The manufacturing infrastructure is already in place for Japanese premiums for properties like Pokemon etc, so ya... what in the hell are US food companies thinking?
If there are US premiums, they are usually pretty lame and cheaply made. Why not piggyback off Japanese premiums for Japanese cartoons that are mega hits over here?
Yup, the figures are gashapon - most are comprised of four different pieces.

At least Nestle's Quik had a random chance of over 200 MUSCLE figures per container. (now that would be a rare flesh set to have)
I've always been partial to the neato Soft drink cap collectibles Japan has. They are always super cool, and they each have their own stand.

Pop Tarts had some very nice metallic repaints of the 2" Tomy line, including a different Charmander sculpt than the main line had.Man... I wish we had such amazing premiums in the states.

Seriously, almost as good as Yajima Uso, and he was a G1/G2 fan art god.

If only there were Sunkus stores on every corner around here I would keep an eye out on Yahoo or Rakuten auctions.the ashuraman, kinnikuman, and sunigator are the ones i really want! in that order!!! man, (exasperated sigh) any place where these are sold? traded? i would buy them off people
Here is an auction I found for you: http://page13.auctio...ction/r70264836
Here is the official name of the line if you want to do some of your own searches in Japanese: ポッカコーヒー キン肉マン 悪魔六騎士編 (Pokka Coffee, Kinnikuman, Six Devil Knights)

Those containers have awesome anime artwork. I DEMAND TO KNOW WHO DRAWS THOSE AWESOME PICTURES.
Seriously, almost as good as Yajima Uso, and he was a G1/G2 fan art god.oh eff now i want him back again.
All the pic is marked with is 東映アニメーション/Toei Animation - not a specific artist name...

I have never used Rinkya, so I am not sure how it works
Here is a whole search thread with lots of auctions:

I got the best results with just "ポッカ キン肉マン," Pokka Kinnikuman

According to the Pokka website there are three series. While I cannot find an official checklist, here are the other two sets:I got this noobish question. How many sets were made? Is there like a checklist of these figures?

http://page4.auction...tion/d111478335
Additional info: I do have the checklist insert for the latest line - they are the 8 figures shown in my pic above.

in the first link above i have the mongolman, black kinnikuman, sunshine, terryman. anyone have the other three for sale/trade? i would love the second link too. i really want the ashuraman from the first link the most.
i guess i need to consider getting a rinkya acct
I would email Yutaka at Kaikodo and ask him if they have any of those in stock. He speaks a fair amount of English, but I would include pics or links to pics just to be safe. Take a look at this link for some recent pics of their store - as you can see they have a lot of Kinnikuman gashapon in their Kinniku sections.

He takes PayPal and is sooo easy to buy from.

cool thanks!
I am communicating with Kaiko right now to pre-order a Kaikodo Romando Tileman figure and will ask them about the figs you are looking for. Let you know what I hear back. If they happen to have them and you wanted to save on shipping, they could hitch a ride with my figure and then I could just mail them to you.
