It's Pepe, Okay!
The people have got to know: Where can we get Pepe merchandise? Pepe the King Prawn has stolen the hearts of all of America, and he's not giving them back until you fork over the cash.
So here's your guide to all the Pepe stuff you can get, and some that you can't yet.
Pepe Toys
The Pepe action figure will be coming out in Series 5, due out in September. You can pre-order the whole Series 5 set from Wicked Cool Stuff.
The Vacation Pepe action figure will be coming as an exclusive, somewhere around November or December. You'll be able to get the figure through ToyFare magazine and an exclusive retailer still TBA.
The Pepe dolls pictured here are made by Nanco; they're only available as prizes at arcades.
The Pepe fast-food toy is from Jack in the Box; they're available right now.
I don't have an online source for either of these -- if you can't find them, check out Ebay... The Jack in the Box toys are on Ebay now; the Nanco dolls will show up there eventually.
Pepe on DVD
features Pepe in his big breakout role.
A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, with a nice juicy role for Pepe, will be out on DVD on October 7th. The DVD will include an extra featurette called "Inside Pepe's Studio"...
There's also an extra Pepe sketch included on the Muppet Movie DVD, and another one on the Muppets Take Manhattan DVD.
More Pepe Stuff
The Muppets From Space soundtrack includes Pepe doing a duet with George Clinton on "Flashlight."
These Pepe buttons are available at Hot Topic...
... and this Pepe T-shirt is available at emerchandise.com
And that's it, so far. Stay tuned for more hot prawn action!
