Heya! In the video, you can see that the Rabacchi (or rabatchi, however you prefer to spell it) are little rubber mascots with clips safety pinned on the back. It seems like some sort of blind box--although when you buy it online, youāre sure to get all six. It comes with 12 pieces...meaning that itās going to be kind of (really) expensive... ^^; Worth it? Thatās up to you.
HOWEVER, it seems there is only ONE site to buy them from online (other thank auction sites). It also happens to be Japanese, so youāll most likely need a proxy or forwarding service--which you can find out about in the FAQs!
Check out these super cute, kisscut sticker sets for each of the Matsu bros! (That Karamatsu one has me cackling, I love it so much!) Now you can get your favorite NEETs and stickĀ āem wherever you want! (Theyāre not waterproof though, so be careful!)
Size: Approx. A5

Osomatsu-san Nyantical Finger-Puppet Keychains up for Pre-Order!
Arenāt they just the cutest?! Each brother as a little kitty--the two oldest are white, the middle children are black, the youngest duo are a nice creamy-tan color--and each has their corresponding colors! And if you look, the kitty faces vary for each Matsu. ^w^ Along with that, Oso, Ichi, and Jyushi have bell collars, Kara has a dashingĀ bowtie, Choro has a very professionalĀ tie, and Totty has a cute frilly bow~
On top of that, they look super soft!

I was just scrolling through this blog and idk how old this anon's ask is but they said something like "I preordered all the nendos from Amiami and none came with the bonus!!" The preorder bonus only came if you preordered from the Good Smile Company site... I'm like 100% sure.
Oh, did the ask say from AmiAmi?! I didn't even realize, oh my goodness, that was a big blunder on my part. Q_Q I feel really...dumb right now.Thank you for correcting me! I'll go fix my answer right away.
do you know where you can get these religion au charms?? i have searched for them so much but still can't find them, but if you know anywhere i would like to know, thank you!~
Osomatsu-san Religion AU Rubber Straps Available for Purchase!
You can check the post on it here, but Iāll just include the link here anyways so itās more convenient. ^w^ (Sheās also currently having a 15% deal if you enter the promo code on the storeās front page!!!)
AitaiāKuji: 10$-16$Ā
Note: Because AitaiāKuji has moved their site, most of the old links donāt work anymore--and there are waaayyyyy too many for me to go back and fix them all. So, if you want to buy anything from that store, you can easily go to the Osomatsu-san section, or if you need any help, you can just message me!
Now that Iām on break, Iām going to purge my ask box! This post is going to be with anon asks, the others I will answer separately. Iām sorry if itās been too long and my answers no longer help you... :c But Iāll do my best! (Iāll most likely be making another one soon.)
So if you submitted an anonymous ask or are interested in any merch that may be mentioned, keep reading!
(Hereās a list of the topics, ones with merchandise links are in bold)Ā
Hoodies ā¢ Patches ā¢ Hats/Baseball caps ā¢ Keys ā¢ Game translation ā¢ Online money conversion ā¢ Proxy ā¢ International Shipping ā¢ Animate Diecut CushionsĀ ā¢ Otome Game ā¢
Here you go! You can check out this post--hopefully it will be of help!
However, if Iām honest, I think your best bet would be to buy a plain hoodie from Walmart or Target for 10-15$, and order a patch and sew/iron it on. (Thatās what I did.) That way you can make sure the hoodie fits, is of good quality, and is the exact color you want it. Here is a patch that I think is the perfect size for a hoodie, and not only do they also come in every brotherās color (in case you want to do the grey hoodies), they also have small patches for the body suits!

I hope your friend has/had fun at WizardCon! And good luck with your hoodies! ^w^
Here you go, you can check this post! Premium Bandai has some in stock, although you may need a proxie or forwarding service!
To save you some time though, you can look at them all (including Jyushimatsuās!) right here:
Premium Bandai: 3456-3500Ā„
Ahhhh, unfortunately they donāt have any more on any of the sites that I know of, even the Japanese ones or auction sites that Iāve checked...Ā ĆnĆ Iām really sorry!
Unfortunately, it doesnāt look like ANY of the games will be getting an English translation. ĆnĆ Which makes me really sad, but thereās bound to be someone who will make a translation page/blog for them eventually! All the more inspiration to learn Japanese, right...? ą²„_ą²„
Absolutely! ^w^ As long as youāre paying with a debit or credit card, your money should automatically convert into whatever currency the website uses. :3 So you can buy from Japanese sites too, if youād like! ^^
Here you go! You can check the FAQ here, or for a step-by-step guide, you can look at this post here! (Itās also linked in the FAQ.)
The Animate Diecut CushionsĀ are unfortunately NOT shipped internationally from any online shops, and unfortunately Aitai no longer carries them! D: Apart from that, it also seems like Karamatsu is the only one left on Animate. :c Since this is the case, Iām afraid that the only way to get them would to be off of auction sites...
Iām sorry!!!
Sorry, Iām answering this so late, so youāve probably already seen that there was a winner chosen. D: Anyways! If you would like to take a look at it and see the places to Pre-Order it, you can check out this post! These are also expensive, so Iām not sure if they will be any cheaper than Play-Asia. :l But you can check! AmiAmi may be your best option, not only because itās (sort of) cheaper, but also because the site (not the game) is in English and will ship internationally without a proxy or forwarding service!
Heyo! Would you happen to know anything aboutĀ theseĀ smartphone buttons and ring stands, or where else I might still be able to buy them for a reasonable price? Ā“ļ½„Ļļ½„`
Thanks for your time!!Ā
Eeee, I have some bad news! Those came out at the beginning of this year, around March, so Iām afraid that most places donāt have them anymore. :c I checked a couple shops and the only place to have some is Hobby Search, but the two they have available now are the Ichi and Kara thumbprint buttonsā¦. ( Ichiās is here, Karaās is here )
You can also check some other shops if youāre trying to find different onesā¦. Otherwise, the only places that will have them are auction sites. Unfortunately they look to be rather expensiveāabout double the priceāso Iām not sure if you want the item THAT badly. |D However, if you do, here is the listing for them on (regular) Amazon.
Phone Ring Stands
iPhone Print Scanner
And Amazon Japan:
(The prices are cheaper, but keep in mind that you may need a proxy/forwarding service and pay for shipping.)
Ok thank you so much for answering my last ask, it was super helpful, but, another situation has me curious. If I were to buy an Amazon gift, and use it on the Japanese site, will it work/ convert USD into yen automatically? Or is there another way?
Ah, since the cards are site-specific, if you have a regular Amazon gift card, you wonāt be able to use it on Amazon Japanāand vice versa. :c However, if you want, you CAN buy an Amazon Japan gift card.
Here is the linkĀ for theĀ āEmail Typeā gift cards, and all you have to do is enter the email of the recipient and choose or type in how many yen you would like to put on it. ^w^ Then theyāll receive the gift card code! ^^
can you list websites that sell merch and ship to america please?
Here you go! I just updated the FAQ page, so you can find them there, but for convenience, Iāll list them here too! Granted, these are only shops that I found that sell Osomatsu-san merchandise, not anime merch in general. Oh, and this does not include online vendors or auction site vendors.
What are the easiest (in my opinion) shops to buy from?(All these sites ship to America and carry the biggest variety of merchandise.)
AmiAmiHobby Link JapanHobby Search
(I consider these the easiest sites to buy from because they are in English. Of course, there are a lot of other shops, but these are the ones I find reliable.)
What are some other sites that also ship to America and/or Internationally?

Hi, hi! I was just wondering when they'll ship the zombiematsus plushies?? I was planning to buy one soon! Thank youā¤
(P.S. Thank you for saying my blog is cool, itās really encouraging! >w< )
Hey there! Ā The ZombieMatsu plushies have actually all already been released! Because they are exclusive (you can only get them in Japan), you wonāt be able to find them on main online sites. However, BECAUSE theyāre obtainable in the gaming centers, you can still get them! Theyāre for Pre-Order because they actually need to go and be gotten/won, but you can still get them! :D
Check out this post here for the link to AitaiāKuji!
Edit: Ā ^w^ You can also check auction sites and see if anyone is selling the plushies that theyāve already won. (Thanks!!!Ā @fishingwithaloveletterā )
Hello, I've been wondering how exclusive the Military Osomatsu-san designs are for the dakimakuras. Will they continue to manufacture them even after newer designs come out?
Hm, thatās tough to answer! If you didnāt get a Pre-Order, there is a such thing as a āTentative Pre-Orderā on some sites, which means that youāll be out on a list, and if someone who Pre-Ordered drops out/doesnāt pay, the next person on that list will get that item.
If that doesnāt work out for you, theyāll be up online when theyāre released, until they run out of stock.
(The rest of this answer applies to both questions)
Usually after things are sold out online, they donāt put it back up for saleāalthough this isnāt the case for everything! Some things do get restocked, but itās almost impossible (for me, at least) to tell which ones.
Now, some online shops DO restock things by order, and usually get them in 4-6 weeks, and then ship them to you. Hobby Link Japan does thisāif you search āOsomatsu-sanā, there will be a selection tool to the left. One says āOut of Stockāāthese are the things that you can still order! ^o^)/ (They donāt have the dakimakuras, unfortunately.)
If you cannot find your item there or in stock anywhere else, itās for the most part only sold in Japan at physical stores.
On the upside, there are bound to be some sellers on auction sites that will have themābut the downside of that is they may mostly be on Japanese ones, so you might need a proxy or forwarding service.
Do you know where I could possibly get the bonus face plates for the Nendoroids? I preordered every single one from Amiami almost exactly after they were available (except for Osomatsu) and NONE of them came with the bonus! I know they have a disclaimer about the preorder bonus on the website, but I'm still very upset. Not preordering from them again. T ^ T Is there any way that I could find at least some bonus face plates for my precious boys?
Edit: It has been brought to my attention that you ordered then from AmiAmi--the bonuses only came when you Pre-ordered from Good Smile! D: Sorry for the mixup in my answer. (āÆļøµā° )
Oh no!!! Iām so sorry that happened! ĆnĆ I would be seriously upset too! But to be honest, Iām afraid there isnāt much you can doā¦ (āÆļøµā°,) You can keep an eye out on auction sites (so far I havenāt seen any thoughā¦) and keep checking the Nendoroid More items, but other than that, I canāt think of anything elseā¦. Their faceplates are a different shape than others, so Iām not too sure if they will make extra blank ones to buy like they have for regular onesā¦
(P.S. Which doesnāt seem fair, because some Haikyuu!! figures get extra faceplates you can buy separately! D:< Again, Iām so sorry that happened, and Iām sorry I couldnāt help you!!! (TāT) )
So when I clicked the link that takes me to Amazon page for those mini bathhouse figures, it wont allow me to login. Will the Japanese amazon site not allow American account login? I really want those figurines ;-;
Ah! Yes, Amazon Japan is a completely different site from regular/English Amazon, so youāll have to make a new account. On the other side, it looks like they recently set up their website to have an English option, so making an account shouldnāt be too difficult! :D
Well, first review on something! Not too sure how it will go, so Iām gonna have the Matsus help me out! ^w^
(Long post, lots of pictures!)
Contents
So, this is the Figma box. Itās only about half the size of usual Figma boxes, probably becauseāunfortunatelyāthey donāt come with any props or extra accessoriesā¦ :c Inside the box, the figure will be on the right, their alternate expression on the left. Each brother has a different one seen in the anime! ^^
Located at the bottom is a folded, sectioned plastic baggy. In the blue is the parts to the Figma stand, which is great for helping stand your Matsu upright or for midair poses. However! If you have the patience, you CAN get them to stand on their own with a bit of balancing. (I personally like to do this more!)
In the yellow are various hands, including the SHEEEEH!!! :D And in the green are extra joints. Why? Well, to switch the hands out, you simply have to pull the hand off and push the new hand onābut sometimes the joint may come out with the hand! Donāt worry, it can easily just be pushed back in. However, sometimes it may get lost, or even broken, so thatās where these come in handy!
As Figmas and as Individuals
Compared to other Figmas, the proportions are true to the show, so their heads will naturally be a bit bigger than most anime Figmas, haha. ^^; As shown in the picture above, the coat is pliable and rubbery (Iām pushing it with my fingernail), which makes it easier to bend their torsos. The buttons, collar, and tie are also all 3-dimensional, so these characteristics arenāt just painted on. The clothes are matte and smooth, and the shoes are shiny and sleek.
Their bodies, hands, and outfits are all EXACTLY the same. The only things that differ are their faces and hair.
Ichimatsuās hair is messyā¦
Oso, Kara, and Todo each have smooth hair with the ahogesā¦
And Jyushi has the single hair, while Choromatsu has none. ^w^
And, of course, each brotherās hair tint is their own color!
How to Useā¦?
So, first off, how do you use the alternate expressionā¦? Choromatsu and Ichimatsu will show you!
First, you have to grab the front of the hair. Sometimes it may be a bit hard to see, but there is a separation from the front to the back right behind the ears.
Pull the front of the hair off, and get your alternate expression ready! As you can see, there are two sections sticking out from the base pieceĀ of the head and two holes in the front pieceĀ of the hair where they secure together.
Pull the first face off. Youāll see another section sticking out from the back of the face and a hole in the base of the head to stick the face on.
Note: Be careful of the little hairs sticking up in the back! Theyāre sturdy for what they are, but when trying to pry the face off, you might accidentally bend or break them off! (Also, make sure they donāt get caught on anything for that matter!)
*Also, donāt hand Choromatsu your Figmaās hair, heād rather not hold itā¦
To finish up, press the alternate face on, then the frontĀ hair piece, and congratulations! You just switched out your Matsuās expression!
So, next, Todomatsu will be held down against his will! When you first take your Matsu out of the box, theyāll have a plastic film underneath them, and a piece in between each of the knee joints. You can see them below in Tottyās knees if you look very closely.
Itās okay to pull them out! You might want to be a little careful though because itās stretchy, so that none of it gets caught and stuck into the joints.
See? Itāll stretch and tear really easily. Just keep going and make sure you get it all.
There we go, all removed! Now your joints are fully functioning! Alrighty, you can let him go now!
Uh-oh, doesnāt look like heās too happy with Choromatsu ripping the plastic out of his knees! Or maybe the fact that he was having him restrained? ^^; Check out that face, too! Each one of the faces are very dynamic, so again, none of the features areĀ ājustā painted on. They each have some 3-D shape and texture one way or another!
But take a look at Todomatsuās fist! Thatās one of the four sets of hands included with each of the Matsuno brothers! Looks like Osomatsu will take over, and Karamatsu will be our hand model!
Here we go! See Karamatsuās hands? This is the basic hand shape, with the fingers loosely splayed out, good for pretty much anything!
And check out that pair of hands! This pair lets your Figma hold thingsāalthough there arenāt any props or accessories included, but you could use some from other Figmas or even just other things like this ribbon!
And lastly the SHEEEH!!! hands! Woohoo! Perfect form, Karamatsu! And look at the use of that standā
?! Oh boy, I guess Ichimatsu has had enoughā¦ ^^;
Well then, since things are going haywire, letās wrap it up! As you can see, each Figma comes with a 3-jointed stand. You can pretty much position it for anything! However, it is a bit light, so if itās a bit off-balance, it will fall over. Thatās nothing some careful positioning or a little weight canāt fix though!
Applying it is easy too! See that hole in Karamatsuās back? Just press it in and itās hooked up, and there you go! Youāre ready for some midair and balanced action!
And thatās it!
Hopefully this review was entertaining and informative, and didnāt bore you or waste your time! I did my best to make this a satisfactory review. ^^ If you have any questions, feel free to message me!
Thereās no more elf on the shelf, just pine boys in the pine. :3 (Bad pun, please forgive me.... And for the bad quality photos, and my reflection in the ornaments |D )
Yup! Iām not too sure what to say, but Iāll have it up later tonight! ^o^)/
Do you happen to know any other stores selling those lucky bags? So far I only see Animate and Movic online shop up for preorder.
Hm, since those lucky bags (or fukubukuro; theyāre based on the same idea as blind boxes) are by Movic themselves, Iām afraid the only place I know of to get them is Movicās online shop and Animateāwhich unfortunately arenāt available anymoreā¦ Ā ĆnĆ (Thatās my fault for getting to this ask so lateā¦) [ ā¢ Animate ā¢ Movic ā¢ ]
However! Rakuten Global DOES have some lucky bags. On the downside, I have NO idea of what is inside them other than capsule characters (gacha prizes). >~> Although the reviews DO say that theyāre definitely worth it. ^w^ There are two 3000Ā„ and one 5000Ā„.
Hey there! There is an official blanket up for Pre-Order now! ^w^ Iām sorry that this answer is so late, since now the duvet and other blanket designs are no longer available. :c (A duvet is the equivalent of a comforter, to my knowledge--Iām not too fancy, so anything you throw over the bed is a blanket to me. ^^; )
Anyways! This new blanket features the PajaMatsu designs with their names running across in the background--super cute!!! ^o^)/ Haha, who knew Osomatsu was hygienic? Look at him (messily) brushing his teeth before he goes to bed, and trying to hold his pants up~ xD Ichimatsu, on the other hand...looks like heās just gonna sleep in whatever he wore that day... >~>
Size: Approx. W100 x H75cm
