Marvel & Monster Strike Tsum Tsum Crossover Box Set Coming Soon To Japan

The Disney Store in Japan has announced a new Tsum Tsum collection, a Marvel Cross Over with the mobile game Monster Strike, which consists of Captain America and Iron Man, along with three characters from Monsters Strike.   This box set will be released in Japanese Disney Stores and online on October 7th.  It will be priced at 3,780 Yen.  No official details have been announced on if these plushes will be released outside of Japan.

One of these characters has already been added to the Marvel Tsum Tsum game in Japan, so its expected the other 2 will follow shortly.  Again, its unclear if these characters will come to the International version of the game.

Monster Strike is a popular mobile game that has been released on IOS, Android and 3DS.

Our Take:

Adding non-Marvel characters to the app and also releasing plushes of them, is a very interesting development.  With the popularity of both brands in Japan, it does seem to help both parties, I’m doubtful if this set will be released outside of Japan as this does seem to appeal to the Japanese market more than the International audience.

What do you think of this set?
