Pop Mart continues to charm collectors with a seemingly endless string of cute mini figures. For November, the blind-box specialists will release their first series from Japanese artist and fan-favorite Konatsu. Can Neko Friends features cats at play, eating and sleeping — 12 standard designs plus the racer (‘Small Car’) chase. Each figure comes with a tuna can/cat food fan accessory. The chase edition features a clever can car. Releasing on November 9th in China, Can Neko Friends should be available worldwide soon after including from select USA retailers including myplasticheart, Rotofugi and 3DRetro for $11/blind box.
These new minis follow in Negora’s cute and slightly ferocious footsteps. Can Neko Friends lose the Kaiju/monster DNA but perhaps gain an entirely new set of fans.
