Japanese listings use specific terminology that denotes size and texture. Here is how to read the specs.
The Nesoberi (寝そべり) Size Hierarchy
Popularized by SEGA, these "sprawling" plushies follow a rigid size chart:
- KCM (Keychain Mascot): 10-12cm. Designed for Ita-bags.
- NNN (Normal): ~16cm.
- Mega Jumbo (MJNN): ~40cm. This is the standard large prize found in UFO Catchers.
- Tera Jumbo: ~100cm (1 meter). These are made-to-order retail items, often costing $200+, and are the pinnacle of the line.
Texture Linguistics
- FuwaFuwa (ふわふわ): Onomatopoeia for "Fluffy." Indicates a long-pile faux fur, similar to a cloud.
- Mochi (もち): Refers to glutinous rice cake. Indicates the fabric contains elastane/spandex. The plush will stretch and rebound slowly, mimicking the viscoelasticity of dough.
