Here is a list of all known ISC Phoenix related paraphernalia that has appeared or been referenced in the Kikyo Sector.

Captain Phoenix (AKA: Phoenix Man!¹⁾) is a cleaned-up and romanticised version of Luca Pavone prior to the Delsauria Incident, retaining the weaponry, skillset and cadre of the current iteration of the ISC Phoenix. It is made and distributed by Origin Industries in Yamatai and 'dirtied up' and distributed for Nepleslian audiences by Argent Entertainment.

This is a cartoon series popular amongst teenagers and young adults, made and dubbed for Yamataian and Nepleslian audiences. The show recounts the adventures of Captain Phoenix and his team as they go from job to job in the Kikyo Sector.

The episodes are not meant to be watched in any particular order, as they were intended to be episodes that you could watch at any time without having to worry about continuity. However, Season starts and Season finales will have two or three episodes, effectively able to combine into a special that can be watched all at once if one chooses to.

• S1E01/2 - Look Around You, Part 1 and Part 2 - The season's premiere episode that goes in two parts; in this episode, they go looking for a prototype Mishhuvurthyar weapon in a facility to destroy it, until it turns out at the end of Episode 1 that they were standing in it all along, and its actually a giant transforming Frame that can disguise itself as a facility. Most of the animation budget was put here.
• S1E07 - The Amazing Flying Palace - The one where the Mishhu attempt to steal the Empress' Palace and everyone in it by cutting it out of the ground by its foundations and lifting it away. Notable for introducing a character based off of Hanako, who was able to rescue herself even though the team were trying to save her along with the rest of the palace. This episode was also notable for when the palace grounds are visited in later episodes they're still repairing the damage to the grounds, implying a loose continuity.
• S1E11 - The Drunken Bet - The one where Captain Phoenix gets into a drinking contest with a caricature of Flint Vanderhuge. They are interrupted by a conspiracy, and they decide to tell that conspiracy exactly what they think of conspiracies with their fists while blind drunk. They never figure out who can hold their drink better in the end.
• S1E14 - This is Not Enough Seirens - Seiren gets involved in an insane Lazgrus Conglomeration (A thin parody of the Lazarus Consortium) testing trial to get himself cloned, but the trouble is that the clones get the same idea, and things quickly get out of hand as the rest of the team attempts to figure out which Seiren is the real one. This episode is notable for being a 'bottle' episode, only having a limited number of the voice actors and characters appearing.
• S1E19 - Don't Muck with the Mailman - Packages are delivered between criminal rings in Funky City, and a big shipment is on its way. The Phoenix team attempt to intercept it but they discover that the package is delivered via ballistic missile, and somehow nullified when it reaches its location. To further complicate things, there's a fireworks festival on in Funky City and other missiles are flying around.
• S1E25/26 - Fighting Fire…/…with Thunder - Captain Phoenix and his team attempt to fight a foe that claims that he can neutralise the Phoenix Punch's powers. The team is soundly defeated one by one with mind games, misdirection, technological prowess and pure skill as they try to prove the bad guy wrong and the Captain is fought last during a thunderstorm. Captain Phoenix gets an idea and holds up his arm to catch a lightning bolt with the Grapple Stunner - and he vaporises the antagonist in one punch as they fall down a building in chase. Most audiences agree that this is one of the most awesome moments in the series, despite the fact that there's no lesson learned aside from 'lightning can solve any problem'!

This is currently in progress of being written. Here's the first verse. Will figure the rest soon. -L!

The music for the Captain Phoenix franchise is composed primarily by String Smasher and Aoi Tanaka.

The opening theme to the Phoenix Man! cartoons is performed by String Smasher, a Nepleslian thrash and synth metal band.

PHOENIX MAN! He don't let the odds, stop him doin' right. PHOENIX MAN! He don't care for danger, its the way he fights. Rising from the ashes, burning like a comet in the sky, he'll never give up the fight Coming down from high with his team flying by-y his side THE EVIL DIES!

The closing is performed by Aoi Tanaka and her band, intended to calm the user after the dust has settled in the cartoons.

There's just to much, now The day has passed by The world spins onwards We've settled down for now…

One of the first items to appear from the TV show was the action figures, which uses the character and weapon designs from the Cartoon. They are modelled to be solid and robust in all areas, in addition to looking good and being a collectable for any good fan.

• Captain Phoenix - With Phoenix Punch action, all of his iconic weapons intact and the Grapple Stunner. The Grapple Stunner shoots a magnetic disc on a tether, and reels itself and the figure into whatever its hit. The figure comes with removable hands, fuzzy sideburns and interchangeable faceplates including neutral expression, grinning, yelling and cheeky. The cheeky face, in particular has gotten a lot of attention from collectors, and there is an unusual amount of photos of the figurine with the face doing perverted acts with or to other action figures.
• Mel - Comes with her iconic rifle, a large wrench for hitting people and an assault rifle. Has eight pre-determined swears to choose from, and two different face plates. The rifle has a button on it that spring-fires a plastic dart, so Melissa's figurine is one of the only ones that can fire a projectile.
• Zeta - With Piston Punch action, changeable hands, three different weapons, three faceplates and 6 different phrases. The Piston Punch has been noted to knock other toys over or break weaker ones, and fans of her have concluded that Zeta's right arm can destroy anything after the toy was seen breaking apart unofficial merchandise in a series of photos.
• Enzo - With Chain Smoking and Cursing action, with 10 pre-determined phrases said by Enzo himself.
• Seiren - Equipped with gadgets like the wrist-tracks, cryowatch, spice bomb, shotknuckle and the ENGpack, Seiren has everything to remain awesome in play. He comes with two bowls of candies, three different faces, six pre-determined lines and a work bench based upon photos of the real counterpart's work area.

Large A1 sized posters of Captain Phoenix's characters and scenes from the cartoons are available on request. One of the most famous images is of the first promo image used for the franchise - a black silhouette of Captain Phoenix standing up against a white background that's riddled with bullet holes, as though someone had just strafed a machinegun through it. Captain Phoenix is unharmed.

The faces of his crew are visible and painted into the silhouette alongside the Crimson Kestrel and some of the locations that appear in the cartoon. Captain Phoenix's eyes, teeth and the right side of face is visible. He appears to be making a slasher smile whilst his right eye glows with power, arcing with energy from the Grapple Stunner. The words “IMPOSSIBLE MISSION? MUST BE SATURDAY” are thickly printed above his head. At his feet, there was a date for when the cartoon's first episode was released, which was on a Saturday.

Similar posters exist for other characters, each with their own choice quote.

The comic books strike off on a continuity somewhat different to the television show and incorporate larger arcs and themes that can go for several issues at a time rather than being standalone, save for the pair of Yonkoma that appear on the inside back cover, usually depicting a lighthearted scenario to cleanse the reader's palette after reading the comic.

An energy drink that comes in an black can with a white and orange lightning bolt streaking down one side, with the Phoenix pentagram in the middle. It tastes like an artificially flavoured orange drink, containing barely Yamatai-legal stimulants that have been known to make people stay awake for at least three hours. It is rumoured that the manufacturing process may contain lightning, “REAL LIGHTNING!” based upon a leaked company memo.

An amusing warning on the can tells imbibers that this drink does not enable them to Phoenix Punch, despite what the adverts say. An experimental version does indeed contain real lightning, and is only distributed to Nepleslians willing to risk electric shock.

Non-combat ready replicas of the Mark III - "Legend" Jacket have been made for customers by Godfrey & Morrison Clothing Company. Practical, armoured sets are only made for high paying customers, as getting a hold of the materials is costly for them.
