Steiff x Kirby: Handmade Plush Collaboration Brings the Pink Puffball to Life!

German heritage brand Steiff, renowned for its iconic teddy bears, was founded in 1880 and has since released countless beloved designs. Its signature golden ear tag isn't just a trademark; each tag features a unique serial number, essentially serving as the teddy bear's official ID.

Now, Steiff is teaming up with Nintendo's beloved IP, "Kirby," for a limited-edition Kirby plush that's sure to melt hearts. Each plush is meticulously handcrafted by Steiff's artisans, making every single one a unique masterpiece! Priced at 44,000 JPY, pre-orders kick off on February 3, 2025.

This collaborative Kirby plush is crafted from Mohair, a luxurious natural fiber derived from Angora goat wool. The name "Mohair" comes from Turkish, meaning "the best hair," and it's recognized as one of the world's most premium animal textile fibers.

The Mohair's incredibly soft touch, combined with a subtle, low-saturation pink hue, gives the plush an elegant and sophisticated look. You'll find a gold-embroidered "Kirby" logo on its foot, alongside Steiff's iconic "golden ear tag"—a mark of authenticity and quality.

It also comes with exclusive packaging.
