There is something rather fun about seeing two familiar characters come together in a completely new way, especially when one is known for cute collectible figures and the other is famous for cheeky childhood humour. That is exactly what makes the new HACIPUPU × CRAYON SHINCHAN One Day in Kasukabe Series from POP MART such an interesting release for collectors in Singapore.

Starting from 28 August 2026, fans can look forward to picking up this new series at selected POP MART stores across Singapore. The collection brings HACIPUPU’s soft and adorable appearance together with the unmistakable world of Crayon Shinchan, creating a range of figures inspired by ordinary moments, funny situations and familiar Shinchan details.

For collectors who enjoy character collaborations, this is more than just another set of blind-box figures. The series takes inspiration from everyday life in Kasukabe and turns those simple moments into small display pieces packed with character.

A Collaboration Full of Personality

The appeal of the HACIPUPU × CRAYON SHINCHAN collection comes from the contrast between the two worlds. HACIPUPU brings a sweet, playful look, while Shinchan adds the mischievous personality that fans have enjoyed for years.

Rather than simply placing the two characters together, the series gives the figures different outfits and situations that make each design feel like a little scene from daily life.

Some designs feature the classic green dinosaur outfit, instantly bringing to mind one of Shinchan’s most recognisable looks. There is also an Action Kamen-inspired costume for those who prefer something a little more heroic. Another standout is the Buriburizaemon pig outfit, complete with a toy sword, giving the figure plenty of playful detail.

The collection also moves beyond the more obvious costumes. Fans can find designs inspired by rainy-day fun, including a figure wearing a yellow raincoat and enjoying puddles. There is also a tricycle-themed design, along with a bubbly bath scene that captures the innocent and slightly silly side of childhood.

For fans familiar with Shinchan’s kindergarten adventures, another figure features the recognisable Kasukabe kindergarten uniform. This design is made even more charming with Shiro appearing alongside it.

Plenty of Cute Everyday Moments to Collect

One of the things that makes this series appealing is the variety of situations represented in the collection. It is not all about action poses or elaborate costumes. Some of the designs are much quieter and more relatable, giving the range a cosy slice-of-life feel.

There are figures showing sweet bedtime moments in geometric-patterned pyjamas, while another has HACIPUPU hiding inside a cardboard box as though copying Shiro. There is even a design inspired by waking up on a black-and-white cow-patterned blanket.

These little details give collectors plenty to look out for. Even if someone is not normally a serious figure collector, the different poses, outfits and expressions could make this a fun series to browse.

For long-time Crayon Shinchan fans, the designs also provide a chance to spot familiar references. Meanwhile, HACIPUPU collectors get a different take on the character through a world filled with Shinchan’s distinctive humour.

Where to Find the New Series in Singapore

The HACIPUPU × CRAYON SHINCHAN One Day in Kasukabe Series will be available at selected POP MART physical retail locations from Friday, 28 August 2026.

The participating locations listed for the release are spread across several popular shopping destinations, making it relatively convenient for shoppers to fit a visit into an existing shopping trip.

Fans can check out the collection at Funan, ION Orchard, Jewel Changi Airport, Plaza Singapura, Resorts World Sentosa and Westgate.

This is useful for collectors who have a preferred POP MART outlet or happen to be visiting one of these malls. However, stock availability can differ from one location to another, and the arrival timing may not be identical at every store.

There Is Also a Buy Online, Pick Up In-store Option

For those who would rather arrange their purchase before travelling to a shop, a Buy Online, Pick Up In-store option is also available.

This could be particularly useful for shoppers who already know they want the collection and would prefer the convenience of collecting it at a selected location rather than relying entirely on what is available when they arrive.

It is worth checking the available online purchasing and collection options before heading out, especially if the intention is to secure a particular release quickly.

Take Note of the Purchase Limit

There is one important condition that collectors should keep in mind. Purchases are limited to one full case per person.

A purchase limit can be helpful for a popular collectible release because it gives more fans an opportunity to get their hands on the series instead of allowing a small number of shoppers to purchase large quantities at once.

However, the limit does not mean collectors should assume there will be plenty of stock throughout the day. POP MART collaborations can attract considerable interest, particularly when two recognisable names are combined in a new collection.

Stock arrival times will also vary between stores, so shoppers may want to check with their preferred outlet if they are planning a specific visit.

Why Should Fans Go for This Collection?

For anyone who grew up watching Crayon Shinchan, there is an obvious nostalgic reason to take a closer look. The collaboration brings familiar costumes, characters and everyday scenes into a collectible format while adding HACIPUPU’s distinctive cute aesthetic.

The range also works well for people who enjoy displaying small character figures at home, on a desk or as part of a larger POP MART collection. Because the designs cover everything from Action Kamen and Buriburizaemon to raincoats, pyjamas, bath time and Shiro, there is a good mixture of playful and cosy themes.

Another reason to consider this release is the crossover itself. Limited collaborations and character mash-ups can be particularly appealing to collectors because they offer something different from a standard series. Instead of choosing between HACIPUPU and Crayon Shinchan, fans get both personalities in one collection.

Even for casual shoppers, this could be one of those releases worth stopping by a POP MART store to see in person. The small details are part of the fun, and seeing the different designs together can make it easier to decide whether the series belongs in a collection.

A Fun Stop for the Weekend

With the release beginning on 28 August 2026, the timing also makes this an easy addition to a weekend shopping trip. Those heading to Orchard Road, Sentosa, Jewel Changi Airport or one of the participating malls can make a quick stop at POP MART and see what has arrived.

For collectors who already have their eye on the series, going earlier may be the safer option, particularly because availability can change quickly. Those who are more flexible can also take the opportunity to compare the designs and decide which characters or scenes appeal to them most.

The HACIPUPU × CRAYON SHINCHAN One Day in Kasukabe Series has plenty going for it: nostalgic references, cute character designs, familiar costumes and a collection of everyday Kasukabe moments.

For Singapore collectors and Crayon Shinchan fans looking for something different, this new POP MART release is certainly worth checking out from 28 August 2026 onwards. Whether the aim is to add another case to an existing collection or simply pick up a fun new figure, this collaboration offers a cheerful way to bring a little bit of Kasukabe into the home.
