Tom and Jerry is in an active merchandise push in Japan as of mid-2026, with a pop-up event in Tokyo, a gashapon re-release, and a collaboration with an apparel chain all running or announced around June and July 2026.
Tom and Jerry's Japanese merchandise slate in 2026 is dense. The franchise is leaning on Japan-specific pop-culture hooks, from a food-themed pop-up to a fish-design rubber charm that has trended on social media. These moves come as part of a broader licensed-goods strategy that also includes a quick-turnaround re-release of a capsule toy line.
Bandai re-released the capsule flockies Tom and Jerry gashapon set in the fourth week of June 2026, just six months after its December 2025 debut. The five-figure lineup (Tom, Jerry, Tuffy, Tyke, Quacker) returns at 400 yen per capsule with a soft flocked finish, signaling sustained demand for the line.
Right-on, a mainstream Japanese apparel chain, launched a Tom and Jerry collaboration on June 17, 2026. The line includes parent-child matching T-shirts, rubber charms, pouches, magnets, summer blankets, and cushions. The fish-design rubber charm has drawn social media attention.
Warner Bros. Japan and Terakoya are holding the pop-up "TOM and JERRY Wakuwaku Street in Tokyo" at Seibu Shibuya Store from July 14 to August 2. The event has four themes blending Japanese food culture and pop culture, over 200 exclusive goods, photo spots, and a first-day greeting event. A nationwide tour is planned afterward.
