Nintendo is extending the reach of its iconic 80‑centimetre‑tall, 136‑centimetre‑deep Donkey Kong plush, a colossal figure that has already captured the hearts of fans in select markets.
Starting in November, the plush will be available in the UK for £395 (about $760 AUD), a price that eclipses even the Nintendo Switch 2. The company is hopeful that the release will eventually extend to Australia, offering fans there a chance to bring this giant mascot into their living rooms.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the dimensions of the new Donkey Kong plush and how big is it compared to a child?
The plush is 80 centimetres tall and 136 centimetres deep, making it roughly the size of a small child and a massive, cuddly representation of the iconic mascot.
When and where will the Donkey Kong plush be available for purchase?
It will launch in the UK in November, with a price of £395 (about $760 AUD). Nintendo hopes to extend the release to Australia in the future, but a confirmed Australian launch date has not yet been announced.
Why is the Donkey Kong plush priced higher than a Nintendo Switch 2?
Nintendo is positioning the plush as a premium collector’s item, aiming to generate a new high‑margin revenue stream and reinforce brand loyalty. Its higher price reflects its large size, limited availability, and status as a special edition merchandise piece rather than a standard gaming console.
