Hello again! I’m back in Florida!
Wow, I haven’t updated since I arrived to the Philippines! I said things would slow down on this front after my fast-paced Rilakkuma adventures in Japan, but it turns out that applied to my blogging (and internet connection) too haha. But now that I’m back in the states, I have some time to burn while I wait for med school to start (August 5)!
First up is Tokyo Skytree Rilakkuma, Korilakkuma, and Kiiroitori!

At 2080 ft., Tokyo Skytree is the tallest tower in the world! … which would make this Rilakkuma more than 1000 feet tall if scaled up to actual size!

Love that they still included all the details: Rilakkuma has a functioning zipper, and Korilakkuma has her signature red button, even though it is barely visible!
This particular set, with the bears hanging on to the tower all King Kong-like, came out December 2012! A different set with the 3 with Rilakkuma holding dango came out at the Skytree Rilakkuma Store’s grand opening on May 22, 2012 – super cute, too!
Anyway, over the next few days, I’m gonna try to photograph and catalog all the different plushies I picked up while in Japan while I try to get caught up on all the Rilakkuma news I’ve missed – for example omg hahaha that the new Rilakkuma Wonderland mini plushies’ tails are all different colors?

Also, dango-drummer Rilakkuma’s nose looks full and normal here?
And aahhh the super cute Rilakkuma x Tower Records collab?? I love Ariel’s and Angel’s photos! So jealous!
These musically inclined Rilakkumas dovetail quite nicely with the new Akiko Yano Rilakkuma collaboration song, リラックマのわたし (“The Rilakkuma that is me”)! The CD will be available at Tower Records on August 7!
PS a big OOOH to the close-ups of the Rilakkuma Wonderland float playset!
First one to like this lovely post *^*
Haha thanks for the enthusiasm!
I’m standing in line right now reading your post!! I love that plushie!! But that’s your first kii? Oh no well you’ve got to get more ;) I’m glad you had a fun trip and you got back safely!! I’m so excited to see more of your hauls~
OMG! I forgot that today’s the day! Have fun with all the other kuma fans :)
Also hahaha even though this is my first Kii, I actually have a few more on the way! They’re all part of sets though: the 10th anniversary set, the Lawson Aloha set, and the Wonderland float set – 3 more Kii’s to go hahaha, once they arrive, this Skytree Kii won’t be so lonely anymore.

Yeay welcome back! Something is just so wrong in Rilakkuma world without you here hehehe
Can’t wait to see the post of all hauls that you bought at Japan! <3
Haha thanks so much! I missed the Rilakkuma world dearly when I was away! <3
YAY! You’re back! ^-^ Damn! That marching band playset looks so cute… :< And wow! Your first Kiiro?! You're missing out!!!! Good thing you've got more coming :D I wasn't a fan of him when I started out too, but I fell in love with him after seeing his golden/pudgy adorableness! He can brighten up any room! :D So excited about the Wonderland series!
Haha yes my first Kiiro! :O it really is quite nice to see all three of them together – he does brighten up the set! Though Rilakkuma will always be my favorite, I think hahaha.
Welcome back! The Skytree plushie looks awesome! I never got mine cause I thought it would only be appropriate to get if I ever visit Skytree hehehe. Looking forward to your posts about everything you got in Japan, I am sure it will be awesome and kawaiiiii!
Thanks so much, I’m glad to be back! Yes, the Skytree plushie is definitely best as a souvenir :) and that actual tower is incredible! When you’re at the foot of it, you can barely see the top! Plus there were a few clouds out when we went, so it looked so much taller as it disappeared into the clouds :O
Ooh I got the Skytree plushie when I visited too! It was also my first Kii *^^* I think its a great souvenir! I loved the Skytree shop, very beautiful and clean ~ we took Rilakkuma up into Skytree with us, so he made it into all of our pictures of the view! Haha =) can’t wait to see more of your pics!
Yes!! I love it so much because it’s both a souvenir from a great place and a cute plush at the same time :) :) :) Hahaha so funny that it was your first Kii, too!
Nice and Cute. pls Suggest Where can i buy Rilakkuma and Tokyo Tower? Guarranty and Sure, i m collector.
Hello! This is a rather old and retired design, so I’m not sure where this would be sold anymore — best bet would be eBay or Yahoo Japan auctions!
i collect this rilaakuma and kori clim tokyo tower. i surely confirm they are very cute. i warrant by my opinion, only. ;p
