BANDAI SPIRITS has announced the release of **”Ichiban Kuji Hoshi no Kirby ~Pupupu Riemikkusu~”**.
The 2018 “Ichiban Kuji Hoshi no Kirby ~Pupupu Riemikkusu~” is Making a Comeback!
This delightful product is a rerun of the popular Ichiban Kuji originally launched in April 2018. Drawing inspiration from the beloved Hoshi no Kirby series, this collection features a fantastic array of groovy, music-themed merchandise that fans won’t want to miss. The A Prize, “Gokigen na Kirby Nuigurumi” (Happy Kirby Plushie), captures a wonderfully cheerful Kirby enjoying some tunes with his headphones on, perfectly translated into a cuddly plushie.
The B Prize offers a charming diorama-style alarm clock featuring Kirby and Wispy Woods, which plays an arranged version of the iconic “GREEN GREENS” theme. For this special rerelease, both the background music arrangement and the time display have been updated from the 2018 version, now showing time in a 24-hour format instead of 12-hour.
Step up to the C Prize and discover the “Pupupu na Headphone,” an undeniably cute set of headphones where the ear cups are playfully shaped like Kirby himself! Moving on to the D Prize, you’ll find “Poppu na Kozara” (Pop Small Plates), available in four stylish designs. These feature Kirby and Waddle Dee sporting their own headphones, alongside other elegant record-inspired patterns.
The E Prize presents a simple yet captivating “Rock na Glass” (Rock Glass). Compared to its initial release in 2018, both the glass shape and the printing method have received a fresh update. And for the F Prize, fans can grab “Kurasikku na Taoru” (Classic Towel), boasting a diverse lineup of six unique designs, including cool album jacket-style art and nostalgic dot-pixel game screen motifs.
And for those lucky enough to draw the very last ticket, the special Last One Prize is the “Gokigen na Kirby Nuigurumi Monokuro ver.” (Happy Kirby Plushie Monochrome ver.).
