Things We Saw Today: Cute Stackable Kirby Figures Make Up for the Fact That Collectables in ‘Kirby and the Forgotten Land’ Aren’t Real
Why have one Kirby when you can have ten!
One of the things you get to do in Kirby and the Forgotten Land is collect little figurines of the different characters and objects in the game. If you’re like me, seeing these figures makes you wish you could actually get them in real life, but alas, there’s no way to do that.
Unless …
Okay, these aren’t technically the same exact toys you ice skate on lava to get, but they’re stackable Kirbys, and they’re REALLY cute. If you’re in need of a sudden burst of pink that waves hello to you, then Ensky (one of the brands that’s part of Bandai Namco Toys & Collectibles America) has got you covered—no devastatingly difficult end boss fight in a coliseum required.
As you can see, I personally wasn’t brave enough to stack them as high as possible. I decided to spread my little Kirbys out, but they actually are made to put on top of each other. The packaging actually shows the arrangements you can put them in as some are a bit heftier than others. There are, for example, two good chonky boys who can easily hold up a tiny Kirby or assist in holding the Warp Star (which is included with the 10 figures).
That being said, I have cats in my house, so I wasn’t going to leave it to chance. Still, it’s worth messing around with the figures to create the Kirby setup you want.
Ensky also has other fun Kirby items, like acrylic dioramas to create a fun, Kirby playground, and puzzles to put together. All and all, it’s a good way to get your Kirby fix when you’re not fishing in Forgotten Land or trying to find every last Waddle Dee.
(Ensky provided Kirby figures for the purposes of testing their cuteness.)
