Pokémon and the Japanese retailer Kawada Toys introduce three new Pokémon into their Nanoblocks collection, featuring Pawmi, Tandemaus, and Clodsire from the Paldea region. These Nanoblocks serve as miniature building blocks akin to LEGO, produced exclusively by Kawada in Japan and distributed by the Ohio Art Company in the U.S. Initially launched in 2013, Nanoblocks have since become essential collector items in the Pokémon community.
The Pokémon brand remains a cultural icon, bolstered by ongoing video game releases, a thriving trading card game, and an anime series that continues to captivate audiences. Beyond video games and television, the Pokémon brand also boasts a wide array of merchandise, including Nanoblocks, Funko Pop idols, apparel, and various lifestyle goods like the newly launched life-sized Gardevoir plushie from The Pokémon Center.
Kawada Toys announced the debut of Pawmi, Tandemaus, and Clodsire on February 1, 2025. Each set encompasses approximately 400 pieces, with difficulty varying by design. These items retail at 2420 JPY ($15.60) and are available exclusively for Japanese residents via the Kawada Toys website. Collectors outside Japan should check local hobby stores that might import these items.
Pokémon enthusiasts quickly took to social media to express their excitement over these new additions. Many collectors boasted about their extensive Nanoblock collections, encouraging others to obtain the new models while suggesting other beloved characters to be included in future waves.
