If you are one of the lucky ones and can play Mother 3, you might remember a scene where Lucas and his trusty canine companion Boney had to enter a club. When they arrived at the club, the couple was turned away because the venue had a strict “no animals” policy. So how do you sneak your four-legged friend in a club? Obviously put him in human clothes.
That’s a good gag, isn’t it? Seen in countless media and video games over the years. Of course, all it ends up with is making us laugh and maybe getting some “wait” from us. But the only way to make this more adorable is to make it a toy, right!?
Hobonichi – a lifestyle brand best known for creating notebooks among other things – has launched US project with series creator Shigesato Itoi back in 2020. This project will continue to celebrate the Mother series over the years by releasing new merchandise, and two years later, it looks like this has been a hit. They are producing Boney plush toys for good sake, which is of course a success!
He even got his own little watch and the Mother logo printed on his feet!
However, Boney isn’t the only introduction to the Mother 3 toy family. The clay masons – who you meet in some of the game’s factories – are also getting their own little soft toy. himself, with his lifeless eyes and cute antenna. It’s like a cushion!
These plush toys will be available online from The official store of Hobonichi from May 25th. Of course, if you live in Japan or know how to deliver those Japanese gifts to you.
If you live in Japan, near Shinjuku, there will also be a US department store opening as part of the Hobonichi Lifestyle Enjoyment Exhibition from April 29 to May 4, you can find information detailed information about Watch the game. Can we get some more of the Mother series merchandise in the West, Nintendo? We think we at least have that Notebook in Europe.
