On December 26, 2024, Build-a-Bear announced we can now buy a plush of the Sanrio mascot Gudetama. It is available online via two methods. One is a $36 one that only includes the stuffed animal. The other option is a $51 version that includes the plush and a themed hoodie. That top can also be purchased alone for $15. 

You can only find it in the online storefront, as it isn’t sold in retail store, but you can have it arrive unstuffed and stuff it at a store near you.

The Gudetama stuffed animal features the lazy egg sitting on an egg white. It features the character’s typical “meh” expression. On the right hand, there is the Build-a-Bear paw logo. You can also remove it from the cushion to place it elsewhere. If you get it with the outfit, the hoodie is yellow with small Gudetama mascots all over it.

Here’s how it looks:

Lots of Sanrio plush appeared at Build-a-Bear before Gudetama debuted. Toward the beginning of 2024, we saw characters like Tuxedosam and Keroppi. Badtz-maru and Chococat showed up in the second half. There were also special variants of existing character. A giant Pompompurin launched at the end of October 2024. There were also Halloween and Christmas variants of some mascots.

The Gudetama plush is at Build-a-Bear now, and people can buy it either alone or in a bundle with an outfit.

Sanrio will release a cookbook in which Gudetama will teach you all the different ways to cook eggs. The name of the recipe book is “Gudetama’s No Egg No Life: If you have eggs, you can relax.”

There are 96 pages in total. In promotional material for the Gudetama cookbook, Sanrio assures readers that the cookbook lacks motivation as well. This isn’t just a reference to how Gudetama spends all day lazing around. It’s also because this cookbook teaches you easy egg recipes that you can make even if you’re exhausted and lazy, or if you’re a beginner. The measurements for all of the recipes are for one person (with a larger appetite), so even if you live alone, you don’t have to worry about making too much.

Gudetama a lazy and tired egg yolk who’s always lying on his egg whites. Sanrio originally marketed Gudetama to kids. However, Sanrio expanded the marketing to include millennials due to teens and adults relating to Gudetama thanks to work or school stress. He has been a popular mascot for Sanrio since then, appearing in shows and in Hello Kitty Island Adventure. In the 2024 popularity poll, he managed to make it to 16th place.

The Gudetama cookbook is available via bookstores (physical and digital) in Japan, as well as on websites like Amazon.
