The Pokémon Company International has just announced an exciting new line of soda pop plushies that were once exclusive to Japan, but are now making their way to the West for the first time. This collaboration with Japanese illustrator and graphic designer F*Kaori brings us three adorable plushies based on the original starter Pokémon: Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle.
These plushies are available for purchase at a price of £16.99 / $19.99 each and stand just over 6 inches in height (Bulbasaur is slightly smaller at about 5.5 inches). The announcement also hints at more variants to come in the future, potentially including fan favorites like Mew, Togepi, and Eevee. The anticipation for these new releases is building among Pokémon fans worldwide.
Cindy Ruppenthal, the senior director of Pokémon Center and e-commerce at The Pokémon Company, expressed the company’s excitement for launching this unique collection outside of Japan. The Pokémon Soda Pop Plush line is expected to resonate with fans globally, offering a special and collectible range of merchandise that fans have been eagerly awaiting.
As more plushies are added to the collection, fans can look forward to even more adorable and charming designs being made available. The company aims to make the Pokémon Center a premier destination for premium Pokémon merchandise, with the soda pop plushies being just the beginning of what’s to come.
