Lawson, a major Japanese “Konbini” (convenience store) chain, will release a limited-edition white peach jelly set featuring an original glass of the world-beloved character “Monchhichi” starting April 21, 2026. This special collector’s item is available exclusively at Lawson stores within Japan.
Lawson-Exclusive Glass Designs Packed with Monchhichi’s Charm
This collaboration features a set including an original glass illustrated with adorable Monchhichi artwork and a refreshing white peach jelly. There are two distinct glass designs available, both capturing the expressive and charming personality of Monchhichi.
Since its birth in Japan in 1974, Monchhichi has become a legendary character cherished across the globe, including Asia and Europe. Lawson is bringing that signature “kawaii” (cuteness) and friendliness to stores nationwide in the form of a practical glass perfect for everyday use.

Tips for Securing This Limited Item
To ensure you get your hands on this limited-edition item, keep the following points in mind:
First, while it is sold at Lawson stores nationwide, it will not be available at some specialized branches like the health-oriented “Natural Lawson.” Furthermore, because this is a collaboration with an extremely popular character, it is expected to sell out quickly after the launch.
Monchhichi fans will likely want to collect both designs. If you are currently staying in Japan, be sure to check the dessert section of your local Lawson!
