As part of Atlus’ latest 30th anniversary merchandise reveals, it confirmed the 25th anniversary Persona protagonist plush keychains will be back and Good Smile Company will make Persona 5 Royal Pop Up Parade L figures of Ann “Panther” Takamaki and Makoto “Queen” Niijima. The plush are available via Atlus D Shop via WorldShopping for 1,760円 (~$11.30) each ahead of their August 2026 debut. There’s no release window yet for the two figures, which follow existing standard size ones in that line of both heroines.
In the case of the plush keychain rerelease, it focuses on Persona protagonist characters from the original game up through Persona 5 Royal. The third and fifth entries do get a bit more attention, as Joker appears in standard and Phantom Thief attire and there are standard and Reload versions of the Persona 3 male lead. Some of them, like the ones from Persona 3, 4, and 5, previously reappeared in 2024. Here’s who’s in that set:
- Revelations: Persona aka Shin Megami Tensei: Persona: Naoya Toudou.
- Persona 2: Innocent Sin: Tatsuya Suou.
- Persona 2: Eternal Punishment: Maya Amano.
- Persona 3: Makoto Yuki.
- Persona 3 Portable: Kotone Shiomi.
- Persona 4: Yu Narukami.
- Persona 5: Ren “Joker” Amamiya.
Jack Frost and Black Frost mascot plush will also appear alongside them.
Here’s how all nine will look when they come back. There’s a photo of the Jack Frost mascot keychain plushes too.
As for the Persona 5 Royal Pop Up Parade L Panther and Queen figures, both seem pretty far along in development. Each appeared as painted prototypes in the announcement. If they’re similar to the Joker one that’s already up for pre-orders and releasing in August 2026, they should be almost eight and a half inches tall (210mm). If the price is the same as his, they should also end up being $57.99/￥8,800 each. Both are static figures with new poses different than the ones used for the previous Pop Up Parade standard figures. (They’re also larger than the other ones.)
Here’s how those two will look:
The Persona protagonist plush keychains will appear in August 2026, and the Persona 5 Royal Pop Up Parade L Panther and Queen figures are in development.
