Animal Crossing plushies

This is probably very old news, but I found it amusing nonetheless. Today I went to a convenience store and I saw some Animal Crossing plushies available for purchase.

Maybe they're available elsewhere (never seen them anywhere else that sells similar Nintendo products), but I thought this was cute marketing on Nintendo's part. Rather than have them in typical stores, they're in the kind of place a young Tom Nook would be running.

I believe this was one of them:

Aw man I wish these were in North America... I'd buy them in a heartbeat. :O

Um....it is sooooo cute

I want to throw money at stuff like these, but Nintendo rarely releases them outside of Japan...
