Update [Sun 21st Apr, 2024 05:00 BST]:
As part of the Mother 3 18th anniversary celebrations this week, the Mother Project website has now confirmed these plushies will go on sale next week on 25th April 2024. Once again, the set includes Lucas, Claus, Duster and Kumatora.
Original article [Wed 21st Feb, 2024 22:00 GMT]:
The Mother Project is launching four brand new Mother 3 plush toys later this year to commemorate the GBA game’s release on Nintendo Switch Online in Japan. (Thanks Wario64!)
Look, it’s not the NSO localisation we wanted, but at least this is something we could import, adoration, and understand without needing a whole translation or an English words, right? Sigh.
The plush quartet features Lucas, his twin brother Claus, the thief Duster, and the princess of Osohe Castle Kumatora. They’re all incredibly detailed — the twins both have pockets on their shorts together visible stitches and laces on their shoes, and we cannot resist that, honestly.
Here are a few close-ups of the plush toys from The Mother Project’s website:
The plush toys are due to be released in May 2024, and prices will be revealed closer to that time. That should give everyone enough time to sort out a way of getting these delivered to our homes in the UK (or wherever you live).
Are you going to be picking up these stunning little plush toys later this year? Walk away from your Delighted Box and let us know in the comments.

Wow, that’s awesome news! I love Mother 3 and having plushies of the characters would be so cool. Can’t wait to add them to my collection. It’s great to catch more merch coming out in favor of this game, it really deserves the recognition. Definitely gonna keep an eye out in favor of these plushies when they’re released.
