As a Lucky Star fan and collector, I enjoy collecting anything I can get from the show: figures, posters, trinkets, etc. But because the anime only ran from 2007–2008, this makes it kind of hard to get any form of Lucky Star merchandise. It has come to my attention that this is a big demand in the Lucky Star community. One of the many pieces of merchandise that is heavily sought-after is the rare Lucky Star Konata Izumi and Kagami Hiiragi plush dolls, released by Movic in 2008. As far as I'm concerned, there are NO plushies of Tsukasa and Miyuki, but I digress.

I did try to find these myself, but had little to no luck at all. I really want these as collector's items, but that is easier said than done when it comes to this kind of thing.

Now, you could say: "Well, old IPs don't usually get recognition in the modern day."

Counterargument: If anybody ever asks this question or something similar, I would like to present you with this point:

A Dedicated and Still Long-Lasting Fanbase.

On May 27th of this year, at the time of writing, they did a relaunch of figures of the characters made by Trio-Try-iT Figure. These figures were literally released this year, so why not try and push for a relaunch of these plushies?

The other issue with this is that any rare listings, if any, of the plushies are at ridiculous prices for something so small in scale. I understand that a rare item often times equals a high price, but do you really expect anyone to pay hundreds, sometimes thousands, of dollars just for that? I thought not.

So I'm making this petition to try and get this to happen. I'm not the only one who wants these dolls, and I honestly cannot think of a better way to get them back other than a petition or campaign of some sort. I heavily urge Movic to hear what I and others have to say, and to reprint the plush dolls of the titular characters: Konata and Kagami, and roll them out to the masses.

I'm also attempting to persuade the fanbase to support this campaign. If you are a Lucky Star fan and you want these plushies as much as I do, then I urge you to sign this petition. Once again, they did a merchandise relaunch for this classic series before, so who's to say we can't do it again? This petition is very personal to me, so make sure to not skim over it. I'm doing this for the Lucky Star fanbase and myself.

I'd also like to point out that the goal is to get the production of these plushies going again, which means that I am calling for these dolls to be mass-produced, sourced from Japan, of course. Even though, yes, Lucky Star has been over since 2008, there are still fans of the show, and there's a lot of them. It may not be 'Dragon Ball Z' or 'My Hero Academia', but it is still a beloved and popular anime that deserves respect and attention.

And I feel it's only fair to give us something, as there is still a fanbase, and we deserve some form of physical media regarding our favorite characters and anime.

I also feel as though it is necessary to address that while an old IP can be subject to being forgotten and therefore not getting much memorabilia made after its time, many anime series from a similar time as Lucky Star are still remembered and respected, and are still getting merchandise produced. So why not Lucky Star? It was considered a good series, so why not give it the love and attention it deserves?

I call upon Lucky Star fans to consider signing this petition, because no matter what, a beloved anime from the past still deserves love, respect, and recognition.

Important Detail About This Petition:

The image I used for the petition was created for the sole purpose of this campaign. The resolution of the images of the dolls has been scaled up as well, since there aren't many images online showing both plushies on display, or at least sitting next to each other. So I have created the image displayed above the petition to demonstrate the products we are pushing to get reissued.

I'd also like to put a few more details below about this campaign.

Disclaimer 1: This petition is specifically calling for the plushies to be made 100% accurately to the original product. Accuracy is important, and I should address it just in case.

Disclaimer 2: This petition was not created for spiteful purposes or as a demand, but rather as a campaign. Once again, I am doing this for the fanbase and myself.

I also want to mention that we have no idea if this campaign will actually make a change, but I would like to at least try. One voice can go a long way, and Lucky Star's legacy has come even farther.
