So checking around twitter (made one...yes..) and I just got a notice about a new website for Pokemon merchandise. Seems like TPC is going to be opening an online store for us in the US so we can get all out novelty Pokemon items.

They have a pre-sale going on with three items, a Mewtwo tumbler cup. A running Pikachu Poke plush, and Eevee and its pre-gen 6 evolutions. The actual site is gunna open up in 34 days or so. I'm really happy cause now I can buy Pokemon gear that I would have to normally wait for conventions or travel out of state to get =D

Hope this is a sign that they may add Pokemon Center stores across the US as well if online business does well enough.

Here is the new site for people that are interested.

Though we haven't seen the full extent of what they'll be selling yet, I've got to say I'm disappointed that they'll only be shipping within the United States, and not internationally. Hopefully that doesn't last forever, as I'd like to get my hands on some stuff at some point.

I wonder if they'll sell any manga... But regardless, yeah, only the US. I normally don't dabble much in pokémon merchandise though, so I'll probably be alright. But I know a lot of people are excited about these news!

Well, its a reinstation from before TPC was in complete control. Back when it was ran under Pokemon USA. I think the main warehouse will be in the US hence the US only restriction. This is still a pretty exciting step up. A Pokemon Center in France. Reopening the online Pokemon Center for the US~

Maybe we'll get our physical stores back someday *w*

I hope they open a UK equivalent, but this is definitely a step in the right direction!

I'm annoyed that a decade after they closed down the old online store, they still aren't going to do international shipping, but when I whined about that on twitter at least 3 people offered to middle-man for me if I ever needed it so I guess there are worse fates in life. Even if I'm annoyed at the scale of it, I'm still excited that it's coming back. It can only mean good things for the Western merch fandom.
