Japan’s Latest Crane Game Sensation: “Tore” Chicken Nugget Plushies Combine Cuteness with Clever Storage
Forget just cute, embrace clever! Japan’s latest crane game prize is a chicken nugget plushie that hides secrets. The “Everyday Original Prize” series, developed by Toyo, is introducing a novel collection of “Chicken Nugget Plushies” featuring the charming face of “Tore,” the mascot character of Everyday Toretoreya Okegawa store. These new prizes are designed to be not only irresistibly adorable but also remarkably practical, doubling as storage cases.
These “crispy and fluffy” chicken nugget plushies are supervised by Naoya Igarashi, a professional in crane games with approximately 40 years of experience. Igarashi, known for being the first to pass the ultra-difficult “Crane Game Master Certification Professional 1st Grade,” has leveraged his extensive expertise to create a prize that stands out. The unique expressions and rounded forms of the plushies, coupled with their dual function as storage, embody a blend of visual appeal and utility.
The lineup includes two distinct types: the “Chicken Nugget” plushies, each boasting a different comical expression, and a dedicated “Storage Case.” Collectors are sure to delight in the witty combination of charm and utility as they can collect various nugget expressions and then place them inside the storage case to complete a delightful “nugget box.” The case itself offers versatility, capable of holding other small items or mascots, allowing for personalized arrangements.
Meet Tore: The Everyday Toretoreya Mascot
“Tore” is an alien character with a distinctive speech pattern, ending phrases with “●〇Tore.” This unique alien floats rather than walking, possessing no hands or feet. Instead, crane-like arms emerge from beneath its skirt-like structure, enabling it to grasp objects—a trait that helps with tasks like carrying warehouse inventory. Tore is currently observed in five colors (red, blue, green, yellow, pink), with multiple red individuals noted, suggesting a leadership role for the red variant. Despite color differences, all Tore characters share the same cheerful, smiling face.
