May 7th, 2015 | Merchandise, MOTHER 1
Takara Tomy has been releasing all sorts of MOTHER 2-related merchandise over the past year or two, including MOTHER 2 figurines and MOTHER 2 straps.
Well, the time has come at last for MOTHER 1 to get some capsule toy love – starting this August in Japan, you’ll be able to get MOTHER 1 figure straps too!
There’s not much info on these yet, except that they’ll be available starting in August in Japan and will have six different types to collect:
- Ninten
- Ana
- Lloyd
- Teddy
- Pippi
- Starman
Since this news is still very early – I think the info releases yesterday – there aren’t any import shops that offer to sell them to fans overseas, but as I find out more I’ll share info here on EarthBound Central.
Here’s also hoping that if they’re going to do MOTHER 2 and MOTHER 1 stuff, that they’ll do MOTHER 3 stuff too someday!

They look good, except for Pippi which is oddly creepy.
Hmm, oh well, it’s not like I’ll be getting any anyway :p

What does the kana under Ninten read?
If I remember correctly, we weren’t sure if Ninten is his actuall name.

It says “Ninten”
The name has been used in guides and also in Smash bros.

Pippi’s model is based off an unused enemy sprite, so it makes sense that it’s creepy. Eeeh…

They’re scheduled to be released in the latter half of August, so nothing new to report yet.

- rg12: I prefer the gba verison, everything doesn’t look good by today’s standarts. The gba’s grafhics are good, and more fitting...
- 4am: Dear Tomato, Why are the forums still down?
- 4am: Sometimes I wonder why after N64 mother 3 was permanently shelved, it ended up on GBA and not Gamecube.
- asdf: I don’t think it looks better than the GBA game we got, but I’m definitely curious how different it would’ve turned out....
Hoping HLJ will have them since they had the other MOTHER 2 stuff
