If there’s one character that’s always guaranteed to make me laugh it’s Kirby, as the pink puffball’s ability to transform into pretty much anything creates so many fun ideas. Here’s some of the most unique shopping picks I could find, plus Emma spotted the Hankyu Kirby Train in Japan!
Kirby’s floating skills come in handy through the games and you can recreate this in real life with a Giant Kirby Balloon! This is just one of hundreds of amazing Kirby arcade prizes available through Aitai*Kuji (JP) so it’s worth having a browse.
Make breakfast so much cuter with a Kirby Hot Sandwich Maker from Japan Trend Shop (US). As well as the main hot plate to make one big toastie, there’s an additional one to swap in for 5 mini pancakes.
They also have this adorable heated plush that looks very round and huggable, though I’m not sure I’d get much work done with Kirby staring at me like that!
You don’t see a lot of Kirby collabs but look at this themed Licca-chan doll at Plaza Japan (JP)! Her outfit is so kawaii, complete with a Kirby hood and Waddle Dee bag.
If you can’t make it to a Kirby Cafe in Japan, you can still enjoy the iconic car cake in plush form, thanks to Meccha Japan (JP). It has all the cute cake details, plus Waddle Dee is hanging on for a bite. Emma did visit the cafe recently so look out for a post about that soon.
YumeTwins (JP) also let you experience the cafe experience at home with their current Pink Hero Dream Café subscription box. It’s packed full of Japan-exclusive Kirby goodies including a plush, mug, clear file and keychain. Don’t forget, SCK readers get $5 off your first box with the code SCKAWAII
Emma also spotted the Hankyu Kirby Train! It’s operating around Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe until mid-March so look out for it if you’re visiting Japan. There’s cute merch, food & drinks, photo spots and a stamp rally too.
Meccha Japan (JP) has the plush and gachapon in stock, while Aitai*Kuji (JP) has even more merch including stationery & accessories. Follow @sckawaii on Instagram as we’ll share more photos and video of the train later today.
