Pokémon x Van Gogh Museum collaboration

Unfortunately, at least what TPCi communicated via Twitter, it seems that they are only focusing on distributing more promos as opposed to more promos and van gogh products.

Surely postcards can be restocked even if figurines and plushies can’t be.

Wow! This Pikachu × Van Gogh promo is becoming like Ancient Mew US version - common and cheap! :laughing:

Thank you for whoever did this listing.

Correct, but I had more in mind the van gogh merchandising message… I don’t see why they will not print, produce mugs until demand is exhausted… at least until January 2024. But I don’t see why they will not extend until demand tarnish… it’s a good business for them and makes who ever wants to collect those arts.

I apologize if I missed it, do they have the retail/MSRP prices listed? Did anyone buy the posters? I was looking at buying the 6 pack art work posters for $120, that seems okay for 6 but not sure.

So i got confirmation email but my paypal payment was pending, now a few days later my paypal payment has disappeared and I havent heard anything about my order yet.

Anyone in the same boat/know what i should expect to happen?

If it’s the ones from the Pokémon Center online store, I believe MSRP for that was either $50 or $60.

When I was trying to get Special Delivery Charizard orders, I would get an PP confirmation but not a Pokemon Center confirmation several times. Unless I got the Pokemon Center confirmation, the order never went through.

Sorry, I am not sure if this answers your question but I thought I’d try.

Got shipping confirmation for two of my orders.

Thank you, I guess I hope that they will have more availability later.

Yeah, it is odd to me too. I don’t know if it has to do with logistical issues, but it is weird to have a 4 month collaboration and run out of merchandise less than a day into the campaign then have no plan to restock.

All the evidence just shows this has been a disaster from start to end. It is really baffling how they handle this kind of releases.

I’d be really curious to know the amount of plushies, mugs etc. they had stockpiled before they all went on sale. I dunno, I hope it’s somewhere in between special delivery charizard and stamp promos. I like rarity, but I think that’s better reserved for prize/trophys. This type of release should be heavily printed

On the contrary, it’s also one of the most successful promotions they have ever done. Most companies would love this level of demand. The only goal of the entire profession of marketing is to create a phenomenon like this.
