While it’s not as big as Super Mario or The Legend of Zelda, Nintendo’s Pikmin franchise is still a colorful series of video games and tie-in merchandise. Over at Amazon, you can even buy your own army of cute critters with this limited-time deal on the Captain Olimar and Pikmin set. Normally $25, it has been discounted to $21.10 and features the SS Dolphin captain alongside 11 Pikmin of varying colors.
Each figure in this collection is highly detailed and poseable, and the Pikmin come in yellow, red, blue, and purple color variants. They’ll look great on a shelf, but for extra points on social media, you can snap some photos of them out in your garden.
For more related gear, there’s a very cool PDP controller for the Nintendo Switch. As part of PDP’s colorful REALMz line, this $59 wireless controller has a transparent shell and inside you can spot Pikmin figurines. The first two Pikmin games are both available in a bundle deal for Switch as well–the GameCube classics were remastered last year–and you can also get Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin 4 to help round out your collection.
There have only been a handful of Pikmin games since the series began in 2001, but they’ve been generally well-received for combining platforming and real-time strategy gameplay with adorable graphics.
