January's release is probably out in Japan already, filling up their UFO catcher machines!
As for folks in Singapore, I'm afraid you will have to wait till February to have a shot at these items. Chances are these will be available at PRIZE STAGE arcades; luckily for those unskilled like me or disinclined to attempt the machines, we have
SEIMON-CHO coming to our rescue.
Anyways, with no further ado, here's the list.
5th Anniversary Chax-GP bears (5th Anni stamped to their feeties)
First up, we have the first release of 2011, of course being in line with the 5th Anniversary. These bears measure about 25cm, and come in 3 colorways. Especially notable are the FULL RED and FULL WHITE bears, hardly seen colorways!
Micropaws, about 9cm each. Ready for Valentines day!
For those who wish to up the ante, there's always the XL choco bears!
Lastly, these are the iphone4 cases produced by Taito.
Seimon-cho has already brought in the Iphone4 case manufactured by Iwaya (a japanese manufacturer for phone cases). They come in black and red, with the red one used by Mori Chack himself. [Finally an explanation as to why he ALREADY had the case haha] Sadly, the Taito manufactured ones will probably not make it to Singapore shores as they seem to be of significantly lower quality. Of which I can attest to, after having to sand down bumpy bits on the inner side of the Iphone 3GS shell that I purchased a couple of weeks back >:(
Price gauge for plushes are as follows, micropaw $11.40, 5th Anniversary bears $22?, large choco splatter bears $30. The Iphone4 case by Iwaya, is available at $39.90 right down @ Seimon-Cho, stocks are limited so for your slice of the pie, better be quick!
