More Japanese Merchandise for April/May

At the end of our previous article, we talked about a new set of Fire Emblem Heroes acrylic mini-figures releasing in Japan in late April.

Since then, the official Fire Emblem Japanese Twitter followed up with more news of upcoming merchandise! Many of these are sequels to existing merchandise lines from November 2017.

Pin Badges

These are highly collectable badges (75 mm in diameter) featuring cutesy artwork of popular/important characters.

The new Hector, Soren, Leo, Alm and Celica designs will be available from late May. From the sound of things, there will be more badge designs after this.

Clear Files

These are thin, semi-translucent A4 file holders that are popular over in Japan.

The theme of this collection is “bonds” between siblings and comrades. It’s not very clear (pun not intended), but it looks like they’re sold separately–and not as a set like previously. Anyway, the planned release date is, again, late May.

Update: It was pointed out by SuperNintendomaniac that this is the first time Saizo and Kaze’s official artwork has been seen.
