Characters from the anime “PUI PUI Molcar” are now available as PC cushions. Pre-orders are available on Premium Bandai.
“Pui Pui Molcar” is the first TV animation series directed by Misato Tomoki, an up-and-coming puppet animation creator, and was broadcast in January 2021. It is a short animation of 2 minutes and 40 seconds per episode, set in a world where guinea pigs have become cars, and cute, fluffy “molcars” run around. It was trending on Twitter since it first went on air, and has been widely received both in Japan and abroad.
The “Potato” and “Shiromo” that appear in the series are now available as a set of “PC cushions” to make working on a computer more comfortable. The set includes a plush cushion for each and armrests inspired by their favorite foods, carrots and lettuce.
“Potato” and “Shiromo,” each measuring approximately 22 cm in height, are just the right size to place on your lap. By placing them between the desk and your body, you can work on your computer or desk in a comfortable posture.
In addition, the attached carrot and lettuce-shaped armrests are removable and can be used in three different ways depending on the situation: as a cushion when the armrest is worn, as a cushion alone, or as a stand-alone armrest.
In addition, “Shiromo” comes with masked parts, which can be replaced to create a “masked Shiromo” that can also be enjoyed as a cushion. In addition to being used as a cushion to heal the body, this item can also be used as a plush toy to heal your heart.
“The PC Cushion Pui Pui Molcar Potato & Shiromo” is priced at 7,260 JPY (tax included). Pre-orders are currently available on Premium Bandai.
