Tamagotchi first went on sale on November 23, 1996, and Bandai marks its 30th anniversary on November 23, 2026. Thank You Mart, a Japanese variety store chain, is selling a 31 item range made with artwork created for the anniversary. Online pre-orders opened on September 30, 2026, and the range reaches Thank You Mart stores in late October 2026.
Thank You Mart’s online shop sells character goods for delivery within Japan only. In stores, the range arrives store by store and item by item. Check the branch’s official X account for arrival updates. A delivery announcement does not guarantee that an item remains in stock.
The Tamagotchi collaboration features characters including Mametchi, Kuchipatchi and Mimitchi, in artwork made for the 30th anniversary. Thank You Mart puts the range at 31 items, and its online pre-order page lists 19 of them.
The everyday pieces include a two pack of laundry nets, a lunch box, ankle socks and a folding umbrella pouch. There is also an embroidered mesh pouch, a folding mirror, wristbands for face washing and a toothbrush set with its own case.
The range also includes acrylic pieces, a card album, flake stickers, a die cut memo pad, boxed message cards and hair clips. The CD keychain holds a miniature CD replica, and the character dust plug fits USB-C ports only. The drawstring bag and the mini clear case each come in a randomly selected design.
Most items cost ¥429 including tax (¥390 before tax). The online price for the mini clear case with a randomly selected design is ¥214 including tax (¥195 before tax).
Online pre-orders opened at noon Japan time on September 30, 2026, and each item stops taking orders once it reaches its limit, so an item can close online before the range reaches stores.
In stores, the range arrives in late October 2026. Thank You Mart has not given an exact day, says dates can differ by region, and stocks each store item by item as deliveries arrive.
Buying it as a visitor
Thank You Mart’s online shop sells character goods for delivery within Japan only, and it accepts no returns or refunds on purchases it finds were made from outside Japan. Online pre-orders do not guarantee delivery before the store launch, and dispatch can take two to three weeks after the items arrive. Stores do not hold items or transfer them from other branches.
For a short trip, buying in person avoids that delivery uncertainty. The four stores below are options to consider alongside your itinerary.
Each branch posts arrival updates on its official X account, for Harajuku, Ikebukuro, Kameido and Kichijoji. A delivery announcement does not guarantee that an item remains in stock.
