This is a list of officially licensed Pikmin plushes.

World of Nintendo plushes

The World of Nintendo line released by Jakks Pacific has a collection of Pikmin-themed plushes in the works, some of which are already released. They are being released in sets of series, along with other Nintendo characters. The plushes are approximately 7.5 inches tall. They are in a similar style to the Pikmin plushes released in 2001 and 2004, but are of a different fabric, and are a few inches taller.

Notes
  • The Winged Pikmin plush is called a "Pink" Pikmin; this is believed to be an error.
  • A Purple Pikmin plush was "leaked by Amazon" in November of 2016[1]; however it's not guaranteed to ever be released.

Club Nintendo plushes

Exclusively released in July 2013 for two thousand points on Europe's old reward system, Club Nintendo, this set consists of a leaf Red Pikmin, bud Blue Pikmin, and flower Yellow Pikmin.

Notes
  • Some reviewers of Pikmin 3 received these for free as a bonus.

Sanei Pikmin plushes

Pikmin

In April 20th 2002, nine Pikmin plushes were released by the Japanese Company Sanei. The plushes consisted of the first three Pikmin plushes each with either a leaf, bud, or flower.

Pikmin 2

On April 29th 2004, they re-released and re-tagged the first set of plushes to focus on Pikmin 2, as well as releasing 9 more plushes. These new plushes consisted of Purple and White Pikmin, each with either a leaf, bud, or flower variant, as well as a plush for Captain Olimar, Louie, and a red Bulborb. The Red Pikmin, Blue Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin, Olimar, and Louie plushes are all approximately 7 inches, while the Purple is approximately 9 inches, the White is approximately 6 inches, and Bulborb is approximately 10 inches.

All Star Collection

On April 10th 2018 they released a brand new set of plushes to presumably focus on Pikmin 3 or Hey! Pikmin. This set contains new versions of the first three types of Pikmin; red, yellow and blue. Excluding the Purple and White Pikmin, it now has the Rock and Winged Pikmin. The Red Pikmin has a leaf, the Yellow Pikmin has a bud, and the Blue Pikmin has a flower, the Rock and Winged Pikmin both have the new purple flowers introduced in Pikmin 3. Those five Pikmin are also joined by a new version of the Olimar and Bulborb plushes from the second release. Olimar's suit is now a softer, felt-like material and includes a few more details that the original didn't have, when as the Bulborb has minor adjustments like the eyes and back spots no longer being stitched on but instead what appears to be more felt - also there's now a little bit of red on its legs.

Pikmin keyring plushes and plush containers

In 2013, Sanei released a similar lineup of smaller 5-inch figures that also included a keying. The set contained a Red leaf Pikmin, a budded Yellow Pikmin, a flowered Blue Pikmin, a budded Purple Pikmin, and a flowered White Pikmin. They also released three Pikmin plushes at the same time which acted as containers. These included a Red Pikmin with a grassy box, a Blue Pikmin with a mug, and a Yellow Pikmin with a log-cup.
