Exciting news has arrived from the Japanese Konbini store, 7-Eleven, for fans of the popular puppet character “Puppet Sunsun.” It has been announced that the “PUPPET SUNSUN Happy Bag” will be released sequentially starting from Friday, January 9, 2026.
This “Happy Bag” is a product with a concept similar to the “Fukubukuro” (lucky bags) sold during the Japanese New Year. Fukubukuro are known as mystery bags filled with items worth more than the purchase price, and many people buy them as part of the new year celebrations.
The star, “Puppet Sunsun,” is a laid-back blue puppet character primarily active on YouTube. His unique and heartwarming daily life in a world called “Tu-hock,” where he lives with his friend Non-non and others, has captivated many fans within Japan. This is a rare opportunity to get limited-edition merchandise of this popular character at 7-Eleven, the Konbini chain with the most stores in Japan.
PUPPET SUNSUN Happy Bag Product Overview
This Happy Bag includes a set of two limited-edition items and three types of snacks.
Price: 6,050 JPY (tax included)
Release Date: Scheduled for sequential release starting Friday, January 9, 2026
Available at: 7-Eleven stores nationwide in Japan
Please note that some stores may not carry the product, or the release dates may differ. It is also requested that you refrain from making direct inquiries to the stores.
Limited-Edition Item 1: Sunsun & Non-non Flocked Figure Set
The main highlight of this Happy Bag is undoubtedly the “Sunsun & Non-non Flocked Figure Set.” The figures are an easy-to-display size, with Sunsun measuring approximately 114mm and Non-non approximately 120mm.
Particularly noteworthy is the “flocked finish” on the figures. This is a special technique where short fibers are electrostatically applied to create a smooth, warm, and velvet-like feel. This process realistically replicates the soft fur of the puppets, Sunsun and Non-non, giving them a texture that feels as if the real puppets have been miniaturized.
Furthermore, the packaging that houses the figures is also creatively designed. The background depicts the world of “Tu-hock” where Sunsun and his friends live, allowing you to enjoy the series’ atmosphere by displaying the figures right in their box.
Limited-Edition Item 2: Puppet Sunsun Clear Bag
The outer bag of the Happy Bag is more than just packaging. It’s a clear bag, perfect for everyday use, featuring a large design of Sunsun’s face. Measuring approximately W360×H290×D160mm, it’s a convenient size for daily shopping or small outings. The transparent material means its appearance changes depending on the contents, making it a fun fashion accessory.
The figures and snacks come inside this bag, so it’s a nice bonus that you can use the bag right after purchase.
Summary
This “PUPPET SUNSUN Happy Bag” is sure to be an appealing product not only for fans of Puppet Sunsun but also for anyone interested in Japanese pop culture and character merchandise. The set, which includes limited-production figures, a practical clear bag, and snacks, is a prime example of the diverse entertainment that Japanese Konbini stores offer.
