A binder for holding the e+ cards was also released.
 
The three games are as follows:
* Plucking Pikmin: The player must [[pluck]] every Pikmin from the ground.
* Marching Pikmin: The player controls the Pikmin by moving them in the same direction, and must try to get them into the goal.
* Connecting Pikmin: The player moves panels around to create a path for the Pikmin so that they can reach a goal.

| Exclusive to Target. This is also the only figure that doesn't feature game art on the back, and instead just shows an image of the figure itself. This is most likely due to the fact that this is just a special edition figure, and Olimar never is shown in these colors in-game. It is also the only Pikmin figure to have a design on the box, as opposed to being a solid color.

==Agatsuma Pikmin figurines==
{{clean|This is confusing to read.}}
[http://agatsuma-games.jp/english/ Agatsuma] has released three volumes of ''[[Pikmin series|Pikmin]]'' toys to promote ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They were only released in Japan, and were produced in randomly arranged sets.
 
===Volume one===
The first of the three volumes. These contain three sets of three Pikmin ([[Red Pikmin|Red]], [[Yellow Pikmin|Yellow]], or [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]]) with [[Olimar]], [[Louie]], or [[the President]] included. There are three sets with Red, [[White Pikmin|White]], and [[Purple Pikmin]] in different stages. These include a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]]s in each set. There are also three sets with five Pikmin each, in different stages. Oddly, there are nine Red Pikmin, and six of every other type. The Hocotatians used in this volume are also used in volume three. The rare special figurine for this one is a [[Red Bulborb]]. The Pikmin in this volume are the same as the ones used in volume two. The figures are not made of the same material that is used in series 3.
 
===Volume two===
Volume two has six of each Pikmin (two leaf, two bud, two flower), a [[Wogpole]], and a [[Yellow Wollywog]]. Another set has the [[Dwarf Orange Bulborb]], [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]], and [[Snow Bulborb]]. The set of three Purples comes with a [[Bulborb Larva]]. The set of three Whites comes with a [[Breadbug]]. The Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin sets come with three different stages of [[Bulbmin]]. Two secret figures are the regular [[Hocotate ship|ship]] and its golden variant. The figurines are the same as in volume one, except instead of three Dwarf Red Bulborbs, there are many different creatures. These figurines are of the same material as series 1.
 
===Volume three===
The three sets that contain three Red, Blue, or Yellow Pikmin come with a [[Pellet Posy]] of the same color, instead of a Bulbmin as in volume two, or a Dwarf Red Bulborb as in volume one. As always, the set of five flower, bud, or leaf Pikmin doesn't come with anything. Purples and Whites come with a [[Fiery Blowhog]] or a [[Watery Blowhog]]. A set of Olimar, Louie, and President is also available; they are the same as the set from volume one and two. The three secret items are the [[Onion]]s. This volume looks much more organic than volumes 1 or 2.

===Pikmin keychain collection===
In March 2002 Takara Tomy released a set of keychains which contained a few Pikmin figures, and a clip. The figures consisted of Red, Blue, and Yellow Pikmin, each with either a leaf, bud, or flower, as well as red, blue, and yellow pellets, and a Captain Olimar figure. The keychain clip would come with either 2 or 3 figures as well as a tag with the Japanese Pikmin logo. Keychain clips that contained Olimar would have Olimar and one other figure, while keychain clips that did not would have 3 other various figures.
 
In July of 2004, these figures were re-released for ''Pikmin 2'', which they then added on to the number of figures. Purple Pikmin and White Pikmin and Bulbmin, with leaf, bud, and flower variants were added, as well as a figure for Louie, and the President. The clip was replaced with a strap, and the logo on the tag was replaced with the Japanese ''Pikmin 2'' logo.
 
Due to popularity in the first set of keychains, as well as the recent release of ''Pikmin 3'', in June 2013 the figures were released a third time, again based around the first Pikmin game. This time the figures featured straps again, with Olimar attached to the strap, with a Pikmin attached to a new ring on the bottom of Olimar's feet. The series contained 9 different keychains which featured Olimar and one Pikmin. The Pikmin with Olimar varies between Red, Yellow, or Blue and has either a leaf, bud, or flower.
