With growing attention to the series, new merchandise has been announced.
Five characters from the series are joining the Nuipal collection! Nuipal is a series of gentle, warm plushies approximately 12cm in size that fit in the palm of your hand. The delicate skin and hair are finished with fluffy boa fabric. Bangs that tend to lift up are held down with embroidery to maintain their shape. Welcome them as your pal (friend)!
