Overview edit · view history

MegaHouse Corporation is a major Japanese toy manufacturer, and part of the Bandai group of companies. Originally established in March 1962 as Kagaku Giken Co., Ltd. (often shortened to "Kaken"), the company was acquired by Bandai in March 1996. In March 1997, it was merged with two other Bandai subsidiaries, Angel and B-AI, and rebranded under its current name four months later.

Though the company published a small number of PlayStation and Wonderswan titles, its primary business has shifted to children's toys, puzzles, and anime figures.
