Monchhichi🐵🤎

Monchhichi is a Japanese character released by Sekiguchi in 1974. It is a plush doll with large eyes, chubby cheeks, and a distinctive pose of sucking its thumb. The body is made of soft plush material, while the face, hands, and feet are made of soft vinyl, which was a unique design at the time and attracted a lot of attention.

When it was released in 1974, Monchhichi became a huge hit in Japan. For people in their 40s and 50s, it may be a nostalgic character. However, even among Generation Z, who did not experience its original popularity, Monchhichi is now receiving enthusiastic support as “retro cute.”
