Such is the popularity of Mr. Osomatsu that a line of Matsuno Brothers hug pillows was offered in December with no previews presented. These sold well enough that a second opportunity for pre-orders is now open for shipment in April, following the original round's March shipping schedule. While four of the brothers are still no-shows, there's now at least a look at Ichimatsu and Jyushimatsu.

The six items from Gakken sell for 16,200yen each.

Also still not preivewed... the undressed/more revealing backside of the 2-way pillows.

UPDATE: There's a look at Osomatsu too!

Another teaser

M'S Factory has also teased bed sheets. These will go for 6,800 yen, but release and ordering info will be announced at a later date.

These go with currently offered blankets, slated to ship in March/April

Another interesting item, presented on Valentine's weekend, fundoshi-style washcloths (which are advertised as wearable as loincloths by either gender). These 900mm×270mm items ship in April for 3,240yen each.
