If you've seen the fuzzy pink Merlion Sanrio plushies doing the rounds online, here's where to get them. The Mr. Merlion plush line puts Hello Kitty, My Melody and Kuromi in a soft pink Merlion costume — a Singapore-exclusive design from the "Hello Singapore" Sanrio pop-up.
## Where and when They're at the free Sanrio pop-up at Marina Square (Level 2, Marina Foyer), now till 16 August 2026, 11am to 10pm daily. Entry is free — you only pay for what you buy.
## The price drops the more you buy The Mr. Merlion plushies are sold on a tiered price, so going in with friends (or buying a few characters) brings the unit price right down:
| Quantity | Price each |
|---|---|
| Buy 1 | $39 |
| Buy 3 items | $35 |
| Buy 6 items | $29 |
So a single plush is $39, but at six items you're paying $29 each — a $10 saving per plush.
## Grab the EZ-Link card while you're there This is the same pop-up that carries the Hello Kitty x Merlion SimplyGo EZ-Link card ($10, from vending machines), plus other merch like tees, pouches, blind-box sets and a Sanrio Kuji lucky draw — so you can knock out the plush and the card in one trip.
## Heads-up These Singapore-exclusive Sanrio pieces are popular and sell out fast. If the character you want (Hello Kitty, My Melody or Kuromi) is in stock, don't count on it still being there next week — grab it when you see it, especially closer to the 16 August close.
