I would totally get if the release date was early 2015 instead.

It weighs 6kg not 7kg (~13.2 lb is correct, though). This is actually an important detail since Pikachu's official weight in the Pokedex is 6.0kg. It is not only the same size but the same weight as Pikachu as well!

Oh, the irony.

They're including the special Team Rocket holding cage for Pikachu hence the extra kg. Very Happy

Ah, Red & Blue, the time when Pikachu had his rounder appearance before becoming thinner...
As cute as this plush is, I just don't see myself spending $170+ for it, even with all the detail put into it.

You too can now feel what Ash's shoulder goes through having a Pikachu sat there on a daily basis.

Coming next, a life sized Misty who scolds you for a new bike!

Otaku won't be able to handle that extra kg!

Ikr?
I'm a oldies Pokemon fan and so is my uncle and we always say how 'Fat Pikachu is the real and only Pikachu'. (:

I would love one of these, but not @ that price, thats just too high priced for my wallet sadly.

Lucky to all you people who are getting one. Laughing
