All Star Collection
On April 10th 2018 they released a brand new set of plushes to presumably focus on Pikmin 3 or Hey! Pikmin. This set contains new versions of the first three types of Pikmin; red, yellow and blue. Excluding the Purple and White Pikmin, it now has the Rock and Winged Pikmin. The Red Pikmin has a leaf, the Yellow Pikmin has a bud, and the Blue Pikmin has a flower, the Rock and Winged Pikmin both have the new purple flowers introduced in Pikmin 3. Those five Pikmin are also joined by a new version of the Olimar and Bulborb plushes from the second release. Olimar's suit is now a softer, felt-like material and includes a few more details that the original didn't have, when as the Bulborb has minor adjustments like the eyes and back spots no longer being stitched on but instead what appears to be more felt - also there's now a little bit of red on its legs.

The set contained a Red leaf Pikmin, a budded Yellow Pikmin, a flowered Blue Pikmin, a budded Purple Pikmin, and a flowered White Pikmin. They also released three Pikmin plushes at the same time which acted as containers. These included a Red Pikmin with a grassy box, a Blue Pikmin with a mug, and a Yellow Pikmin with a log-cup.

Taito pluck-able Pikmin plushes
These plushes, made by Taito, were only released in Japan. The set consists of a flower Red Pikmin, a leaf Yellow Pikmin, and a bud Blue Pikmin. The plushes, when placed into the dirt blocks, stand 12.7 cm tall and come with a metallic loop, allowing them to be hung up.

- Note
- Though the Pikmin can be pulled out of their dirt blocks, they're still attached with a string, meaning this gimmick only functions in a limited range of motion.

Nihon Auto Toy Pikmin plushes
Released on May 27th, 2002, by the Nihon Auto Toy Company, this set consists of a Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin plush, standing approximately 13 cm tall, with all three being available in every stage of maturity (leaf, bud, flower). There is also a Bulborb plush, which is around 23 cm tall. The Bulborb's mouth acts as a sort of small pouch, allowing Pikmin to be put inside, among other things. The Pikmin plushes are made of a silky fabric, while the Bulborb is more felt-like, with actual hard buttons for the white spots on a Bulborb's back. These plushes were never made commercially available, but were rather given out as free gifts, presumably as prizes at Japanese amusement parks.
