Star Wars R2-D2 Tamagotchi Now Available at CVS Pharmacy

Can’t say we saw this coming. Apparently the Star Wars R2-D2 Tamagotchi is available at America’s favorite pharmacy. CVS Pharmacy is an American retail corporation thousands of locations nationwide. Littleladyotaku was at their local CVS Pharmacy location in Florida and was surprised to see a R2-D2 Tamagotchi on the shelf in the toy section. Apparently it was the last one on the shelf, and they were listed for $19.99.

Bandai Namco US does not have CVS Pharmacy listed as a retailer carrying the Star Wars R2-D2 Tamagotchi on their website, but the more locations you can buy a Tamagotchi at, the better!

Bandai Posts English & French R2-D2 Tamagotchi Manuals

Bandai America has just posted both the English & French manuals to the R2-D2 Tamagotchi listings on their website. The manual reveals more detail about the device, including the characters, which are different iterations of R2-D2 and even the special characters as well! We also have a peak inside the unique features of charging, and wiping R2-D2 down!

What really has us excited is the ability to challenge Yoda, and the secret mini games which are completely detailed in the manual! Be sure to check out the manual before you get your hands on your R2-D2 Tamagotchi!

Bandai Namco US Brings Tamagotchi to 2022 Sweet Suite

Tamagotchi is back at Sweet Suite in person for the first since 2019! Yes, you heard that right the last time Bandai Namco US attended The Toy Insider’s Sweet Suite event in person was merely 3 years ago where they showed off the Tamagotchi On that was just recently announced prior to the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Bandai Namco US was never absent as they attended both virtual Sweet Suite events back in 2020 and 2021! With the launch of the new Tamagotchi Pix Party, it only seems fitting that Bandai Namco US attends the event in person in New York City!

Sweet Suite, the Toy Insider’s invitation only event for influencers and press is being hosted in at Pier Sixty at Chelsea New York City. The purpose of attending the event is for toy companies to gain exposure from influencers and the press. Bandai Namco US has posted two pictures to their social media profiles to give us a glimpse into their setup at the event.

It appears that Bandai Namco US has brought two large Tamagotchi Pix Party cutouts that influencers can take pictures with in a photo booth with a party hat and balloons! You can see that the Tamagotchi Pix Party devices are showcased on the table as well as a large printout of a Tamagotchi party, how cute is that and how great would it look in our office? It also appears that Bandai Namco US has brought the Tamagotchi Original, Toy Story Tamagotchi, and lastly R2D2 Tamagotchi as well.

We’re glad to see that The Toy Insider’s Sweet Suite event is back in person for 2022, and that Bandai Namco US was in attendance with a rather impressive Tamagotchi spread!
