Flecha de sol

Sun-Arrow manufactures officially licensed Studio Ghibli plush through partnership with merchandising rights holders in Japan. The company specializes in soft goods featuring Totoro, Jiji, Soot Sprites, and other Miyazaki characters, offering multiple product lines that range from coin purse-sized to cushion-scale pieces.

Funwari Plush Coin Purses With Zipper Closures

The Funwari line creates palm-sized plush coin purses featuring Ghibli characters in compressed, super-soft forms. Totoros in all three sizes (big gray, medium blue, small white), Soot Sprites, Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service, and San's mask from Princess Mononoke get the coin purse treatment. Zipper closures run along the bottom or back, accessing storage space inside the plush body.

These pieces function as both accessories and collectibles—small enough for bag clips or keychain attachment while maintaining enough sculptural integrity to sit on desks as miniature plush displays. The Funwari Mini sub-line shrinks characters even further for more portable options.

Japanese Style Beanbag Plush For Traditional Aesthetics

Beanbag plush use granular filling that creates weighted, poseable pieces. The Japanese style versions incorporate fabric patterns and details reflecting traditional design sensibilities. Big, medium, and small Totoros sit in characteristic poses thanks to the beanbag construction allowing natural slouching. Jiji maintains black cat posture with enough weight to prevent tipping.

The beanbag filling creates tactile appeal—these invite handling in ways standard polyester-stuffed plush don't. They work as desk companions that can be repositioned throughout the day or as weighted elements that anchor display arrangements.

Nakayoshi Plush With Character-Specific Poses

The Nakayoshi (friendship) line presents characters in relaxed, companionable poses. Jiji laying down, Ponyo dozing off, Totoros holding leaves—the designs capture quieter character moments rather than dynamic action. The 19-21cm scale makes them substantial without requiring dedicated shelf space.

Cushion variants enlarge characters to functional pillow size. The Jiji cushion maintains character proportions while scaling up to support actual head/back leaning. These blur the line between décor and functional furniture.

Dondoko Dance Series Capturing Movement

Dondoko Dance plush commemorate the iconic rain-summoning scene from My Neighbor Totoro. The three Totoro sizes appear mid-dance with arms raised and characteristic expressions. The poses add personality that static standing designs lack, creating display pieces that reference specific movie moments fans immediately recognize.

Specialty Plush For Specific Characters

Boh Nezumi (the mouse form of Boh from Spirited Away) receives medium 20cm treatment—unusual attention for a side character. Electronic Soot Sprite plush include sound chips that play characteristic squeaks. The Cat Bus gets backpack clip treatment at 8cm scale. These specialized pieces serve fans seeking representation beyond the franchise flagships.

Large Format Fluffy Plush For Room Décor

Fluffy Big Totoro at 22cm and the L-size Funwari Big Totoro at 40cm serve as room décor elements rather than handheld plush. The oversized format and extra-soft materials position them as pillow alternatives or bed companions for serious Ghibli fans who want substantial character presence.

Studio Ghibli maintains strict merchandise quality control, licensing only to manufacturers who can match the films' aesthetic standards. Sun-Arrow's consistent presence across Ghibli plush lines indicates sustained approval from rights holders—no small feat given the studio's reputation for perfectionism.
