The Y2K revival just keeps on giving, and this latest collab from Casetify and Bandai Namco is bound to trigger some core memories for us 90s kids with a playful range of phone cases, tech accessories, and special products entirely dedicated to the iconic Tamagotchi.
Originally released in 1996, the handheld virtual pet became an absolute global phenomenon, selling more than 100 million units worldwide. Inspired by the fun retro aesthetic of Tamagotchi, the collection features an exclusive, fully functional Tamagotchi device wrapped in a custom Casetify logo shell, along with a 21-inch carry-on Bounce Suitcase – available in pastel primrose pink and cobalt blue – which you can customise with cute blocky fonts to add your name or initials next to your favourite Tamagotchi character.
The rest of the collection is packed with other colourful items, including a plush earbuds pouch, a versatile adjustable three-way strap, silicone phone charms, a metal Tamagotchi-shaped charm hook, various phone cases featuring different characters, and more. For the ultimate collectors, the launch is also introducing mystery chase cards across six different rarity levels, ranging all the way up to supreme ultra rare.
If you want to get your hands on the gear before anyone else, the entire collection will be showcased at Hong Kong Comic Con (Booth 3D-F17) from May 29 to 31. Anyone making a purchase from the collection at the event will score a free chase card, while the first 50 customers each day who spend $500 or more will get to have their card upgraded to an official GEA-graded version.
Prices for the collection start from $119, and the items will officially go on sale on May 29 online and across select retail locations. Dedicated fans can also sign up for the online waitlist to bag early access.
