VTubers are the digital superstars of the modern age, becoming increasingly popular year over year. Now, fans can own a giant, plush version of their favorite virtual streamers.
VTubers (short for ‘virtual YouTubers’) are content creators who use a digital, animated avatar rigged to their movements rather than showing their real face to the world.
These influencers have become bona fide online celebrities over the years, with names like IronMouse, Usada Pekora, and Gawr Gura ranking at the top of major platforms like Twitch and YouTube.
In fact, VTuber agency ‘Hololive’ held a performance at the Dodgers Stadium in LA ahead of Anime Expo in the first live show of its kind during an MLB game — and the hype is only getting bigger.
With an ever-growing fanbase, the demand for VTuber merchandise is at an all-time high… so it makes sense that one company has decided to bring some of the digital divas into the real world in the form of massive plushies.
Hololive is selling massive VTuber plushies
Hololive is releasing a line of life-sized, chibi-style plushies of its third-generation VTuber stars. Fans can get their hands on plushes for Usada Pekora, Houshou Marine, Shiranui Flare and Shirogane Noel.
While there’s some variation between each plushie based on their VTuber’s design, each one measures at around 100 centimeters (approximately three feet and two inches) high. Pekora, for instance, is 125 cm tall (about four feet). They’re also quite hefty, weighing in at 8.5 kilograms (18.8 pounds).
These VTuber plushies are equal parts massive and expensive.
These plushes are for true VTuber superfans, as they cost quite a hefty amount, too. As reported by SoraNews24, these plushes are being sold for 66,000 Yen ($455 USD). That’s nothing to sniff at!
For now, Hololive’s giant plushies are only available for pre-order online on the Taito Gear 6 Goods Shop from July 10 and August 11. They are expected to be shipped out in January 2026.

This is just the latest ‘big’ moment for VTubers after Korone Inugami interviewed the writer and director of hit Hollywood zombie flick ’28 Years Later,’ leaving them completely baffled and bewildered.
