This is a list of Officially Licensed Pikmin Figures.

Olimar amiibo

Main article: amiibo.

The Captain Olimar amiibo by Nintendo, is part of the Super Smash Bros. series of amiibo, and can be scanned in a multitude of games, a few of which have Olimar-exclusive behavior. The amiibo itself shows Olimar, and three Pikmin, one of each of the basic types, just like the official Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U artwork.


World of Nintendo Figures

Jakks Pacific has a collection of Pikmin-themed figures in the works, some of which are already released. They are being released in sets of series, along with other Nintendo characters. All of the figures are approximately 2.5 inches tall. Text is written on the back of each box describing each character respectively. These figures are not based on any game specifically, and feature art from Pikmin 3 and Pikmin.

The main character of the game Pikmin. Captain Olimar crash lands on a mysterious planet after his spaceship malfunctions. In order to get off the planet, he must gather the pieces of his broken ship, but the atmosphere of the planet is poisonous to Olimar. As a result, he has to enlist the help of the native Pikmin. Features art from Pikmin. This is odd, because the figure itself has Olimar's visible whistle and the extra suit buttons, which he did not obtain until the third game.

(1-3)A type of Pikmin—which are odd beings who grow like plants yet are as mobile as animals. Red ones are heat and fire resistant and are strong attackers, which makes them valuable when facing dangerous foes. Purple Pikmin are also tough fighters, but since it's difficult to increase their numbers, red Pikmin are easier to manage. Red Pikmin have distinct pointed noses.
(2-2) This Pikmin has a red body and a long, pointy nose. It was the first type of Pikmin Olimar ever met. They have the second highest attack power among the Pikmin. Like their fiery color suggests, they can attack with flames and withstand them.
Series 2-2 features slightly different packaging than Series 1-3, with differences in text positioning on the back, as well as different box text.

Blue Pikmin, as their name implies, are a blue species of Pikmin that reside on PNF-404. Besides coloration, these Pikmin are distinguishable from other Pikmin species by their mouths, a trait seen in no other Pikmin species. These mouths are used to take in water, which filters oxygen through gills located on their cheeks. This gives them the astonishing ability to live their lives completely underwater. Series 2-4 features slightly different packaging than Series 1-4, with differences in text positioning on the back.
5-Pack Series 1-3 contains the Blue Pikmin, as well as 4 other figures.
Yellow Pikmin Icon for the World of Nintendo Yellow Pikmin figure. Series 1-5 August 2015 A type of Pikmin. Take a nutrient-rich pellet to a flying saucer known as an Onion, and it will produce the mysterious beings known as Pikmin. Yellow ones fly higher than other Pikmin when tossed by Olimar or Louie. Unlike other Pikmin, they're also highly resistant to electricity, which makes them invaluable when battling enemies like anode dweevils.
Purple Pikmin Icon for the World of Nintendo Purple Pikmin figure. Series 1-6 November 2015 An uncommon Pikmin both ten times as heavy and ten times as strong at carrying objects as other Pikmin. When thrown, Purple Pikmin will cause a shockwave to occur on impact due to their weight. Purple Pikmin are slightly taller and noticably[sic] fatter than other Pikmin; additionally, they also have hair-like protrusions on their heads. The box contains a typo: "noticably" should be spelled "noticeably".
Prototype Olimar Icon for the World of Nintendo Prototype Olimar figure. Series 2-4 November 1st, 2016 The main character of the game Pikmin. Captain Olimar crash lands on a mysterious planet after his spaceship malfunctions. In order to get off the planet, he must gather the pieces of his broken ship, but the atmosphere of the planet is poisonous to Olimar. As a result, he has to enlist the help of the native Pikmin. Exclusive to Target. This is also the only figure that doesn't feature game art on the back, and instead just shows an image of the figure itself. This is most likely due to the fact that this is just a special edition figure, and Olimar never is shown in these colors in-game. It is also the only Pikmin figure to have a design on the box, as opposed to being a solid color.

Pikmin Chibi holders

In 2014, Sanei released Pikmin Chibi Chibi holders, which can be used to hold things such as cell phones and wallets, or anything else around the house, in order to make it look like the Pikmin are carrying them. There were three sets of holders, each with three of one type of Pikmin. They consisted of Red, Yellow, or Blue Pikmin, and had leaf, flower, and bud variants.

Agatsuma Pikmin figurines

This article or section needs to be cleaned up, either its format or general style.
Notes: This is confusing to read.

Agatsuma has released three volumes of Pikmin toys to promote Pikmin 2. They were only released in Japan and were produced in randomly arranged sets.

Volume one

The first of the three volumes. These contain three sets of three Pikmin (Red, Yellow, or Blue) with Olimar, Louie, or the President included. There are three sets with Red, White, and Purple Pikmin in different stages. These include a Dwarf Red Bulborbs in each set. There are also three sets with five Pikmin each, in different stages. Oddly, there are nine Red Pikmin, and six of every other type. The Hocotatians used in this volume are also used in volume three. The rare special figurine for this one is a Red Bulborb. The Pikmin in this volume are the same as the ones used in volume two. The figures are not made of the same material that is used in series 3.

Volume two

Volume two has six of each Pikmin (two leaf, two bud, two flower), a Wogpole, and a Yellow Wollywog. Another set has the Dwarf Orange Bulborb, Dwarf Red Bulborb, and Snow Bulborb. The set of three Purples comes with a Bulborb Larva. The set of three Whites comes with a Breadbug. The Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin sets come with three different stages of Bulbmin. Two secret figures are the regular ship and its golden variant. The figurines are the same as in volume one, except instead of three Dwarf Red Bulborbs, there are many different creatures. These figurines are of the same material as series 1.

Volume three

The three sets that contain three Red, Blue, or Yellow Pikmin come with a Pellet Posy of the same color, instead of a Bulbmin as in volume two, or a Dwarf Red Bulborb as in volume one. As always, the set of five flower, bud, or leaf Pikmin doesn't come with anything. Purples and Whites come with a Fiery Blowhog or a Watery Blowhog. A set of Olimar, Louie, and President is also available; they are the same as the set from volume one and two. The three secret items are the Onions. This volume looks much more organic than volumes 1 or 2.
