POP MART Singapore put up a retail promo this morning, and the mechanic is one line: buy the Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Plush Doll Pendant in store, get a Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan photo strip free. Photo-booth style, in the collab's own artwork, design randomly assigned.
> Quick view: Free photo strip with one Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Plush Doll Pendant, S$39.90. From 6 Sep 2026, no end date published. All six POP MART stores in Singapore. In store only, the online order does not count, and the S$15.90 blind box does not count. While stocks last, first-come first-served.
What POP MART actually published
The whole announcement is one post on POP MART Singapore's own Facebook and Instagram, headed [Retail Promo]. In full:
> "Starting 6 Sep 2026. Say cheese! A special keepsake awaits! Purchase the Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Plush Doll Pendant in stores to redeem a Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan photo strip!"
Under it, six shops and three lines of terms. There is no press release, no landing page and nothing about the giveaway on the Singapore webstore, so that post is the entire source.
The three things that decide whether you get one
| Question | What POP MART published |
|---|---|
| Does an online purchase qualify? | No. The wording is in stores |
| Does the S$15.90 blind box qualify? | No. Only the Plush Doll Pendant is named |
| When does it end? | No end date. Only "while stocks last, first-come, first-served" |
The first one is the trap. The pendant is on sale right now on POP MART Singapore's own site at S$39.90 with LOCAL EXPRESS delivery in one to two days, which is the path most people would take by default. Same product, same price, no photo strip.
What you are actually buying
| Item | Price | Qualifies for the strip |
|---|---|---|
| Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Plush Doll Pendant | S$39.90 | Yes, bought in store |
| Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Series Figures (blind box) | S$15.90 | No |
The pendant is a fixed design rather than a blind box, so there is no chase and no duplicate risk. POP MART lists it at about 16cm tall excluding the hanging ring, in polyester with PVC, ABS and POM parts, and labels it age 15+. For context on the size, POP MART's own product page stands it next to an iPhone 16 Pro, which is about 15cm.
Where to go
All six participating shops are POP MART's complete Singapore store list, taken from its own store-pickup page, so there is no outlet here to get wrong:
| Store | Unit | Address |
|---|---|---|
| Funan | #01-06 | 107 North Bridge Road, S179105 |
| ION Orchard | #B2-57 | 2 Orchard Turn, S238801 |
| Jewel Changi Airport | #04-230 | 78 Airport Boulevard, S819666 |
| Plaza Singapura | #01-67 | 68 Orchard Road, S238839 |
| Resorts World Sentosa | #01-233 | 8 Sentosa Gateway, S098269 |
| Westgate | #02-20 | 3 Gateway Drive, S608532 |
If you are picking one, Plaza Singapura and ION Orchard are the two you can reach without planning a trip. Jewel and Resorts World Sentosa are the ones where a Sunday queue is most likely to eat the stock first.
Is it worth a special trip?
Not on its own, no. A photo strip is a keepsake, not a discount: the pendant costs the same S$39.90 whether or not you get one, so the gift adds nothing to your bank balance and everything to the unboxing. That makes this a straightforward call. If the Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan pendant was already on your list, buy it at a counter rather than online and you get the strip for nothing. If it was not, a free photo strip is a thin reason to spend S$39.90.
The one thing that does argue for moving early: POP MART published no end date, so the strips are gone when they are gone. On a Chibi Maruko Chan collab spread across six shops, the honest expectation is that the busiest stores clear their allocation within days, not weeks.
