Prize Fair 2012 Summer: Banpresto - Plush

10:00 AM on 02.21.2012   |   Natalie Kipper

Banpresto's plush offerings at Prize Fair 2012 Summer focused on stuffed things of the anime and video game variety. On the anime side, Crayon Shin-chan's dog, Shiro, is cosplaying as other characters from the show. The cartoonish organisms of Moyashimon take the form of keychains and regular sized plushes. I am especially digging the large Yogurt one (the blue guy with the topknot). Goma-chan, the adorable white seal from Shounen Ashibe, comes in variety of plush sizes, some holding accessories, along with his young friend. Nastume Yuujin-cho's mascot of sorts, Nyanko-sensei, takes the form of plush tissue holders along with straight-up plushes. Rounding out the anime section are plush versions of some of the cast of Ao no Exorcist. 

The gaming portion is represented solely by plushes of some of the more cuddly characters in Capcom's Monster Hunter series. Three differently dressed Airu and a Naked King Poogie? Sign me up! I could be wrong but judging by the pig-like Poogie's form, I'd say he is one of the plushes that can walk. I have two of the other walking Poogie plushes and they have that similar look to their legs. There is definitely a lot more detail in the hooves than mine though. 

Show of hands, who saw something they now desperately want? Just so you know, I raised both of my hands.
