Plush toy of Primura
This plush toy became a minor sensation among Japanese Manullovers when it was released in Japan, Because of its resemblance to Primura.
Which Manul do you think it resembles?

This is definitely Primula!!! 🤩
I agree with the Japanese manulovers that this toy looks exactly like Primula. I think it’s all down to the distinctive shape of the eyes 👌🏻
Where can I buy this toy? 🤤
A plush little darling manul. The toy also seems to be life-size

This Plush toy of Primura was a limited-time prize in a crane game, so it's only available in a few online shops in Japan, making it a bit difficult to obtain.
As an alternative, how about a plush toy to Figa resembles?
This also only available at Kobe Animal Kingdom, so it's difficult to obtain without visiting the on site, but there's probably still stock available.
Furthermore, the size of the plush toy will be determined by lottery.
If you're lucky, you might get an extra-large Figa．
helga ingvar, Indeed, it's the perfect size, just like a real Primula.
Furthermore, Japanese manufacturers also sell life-sized Manul plush toys, including Kittens.
I recommend these to Manullovers in other countries as well.
While they may be difficult to obtain, please try to get one if possible.
schwentine, Oh, how adorable!

I hope to win the Big Figa Manul prize someday .
schwentine, Did I understand correctly that these toys are available in different sizes, and after purchase the toy’s size is determined by a lottery? That’s very interesting! I really like this toy — the minun has such a stern and determined look!😹
schwentine, Oh, we need to get to Japan ASAP — the mecca of manul merch!!! 🤤
Thank you for your merch reviews! This is so interesting! And while I’m at it, I’d like to thank you once again for all your wonderful photos that you share with us on the site! ❤️🙌🏻
