Now that Hololive terminated the contract of Yozora Mel, that also means that merchandise for the Vtuber will become limited edition items. The official store will stop selling items on January 31, 2024, and other items from other vendors will likely stop appearing be be discontinued. It’s one of those situations where it is best to know what’s out there before it becomes impossible to find.
Maybe Check for Yozora Mel Birthday Merchandise?
Whenever a Hololive or Holostars Vtuber celebrates their “birthday,” the company sells official merchandise based on them. This is the case for Mel. There were some really cute items in past collections! Mainly because some were sort of practical. The 2022 collection included an Underworld Banquet wine glass and a Mel’s Grimoire card holder. Meanwhile, the 2023 collection included a really cool cap with pin that resembles her own. Note that if you ordered the 2023 birthday merchandise, you will still get it between April 2024 and May 2024. However, Hololive is accepting cancellations of it due to the current circumstances.
There’s a Yozora Mel Figure!
Despite being a rather established Hololive Japan first generation Vtuber, the array of merchandise doesn’t include many official Yozora Mel figures. One of the few items was a Hololive If Relax Time figure by Banpresto. It was a budget-style item that usually cost between $25 and $30 when it released in April 2023, so maybe you could still find it at a relatively affordable price?
Who Knows the Fate of the Yozora Mel Nendoroid
Honestly, who knows what’s going to happen with this. One of the last times we saw it was at the Hololive Super Expo 2023 back in March 2023. It only appeared as an unpainted prototype back then. We’ll probably get an update on this figure’s situation at WonFes 2024 Winter on February 11, 2024. Considering the Uruha Rushia Nendoroid and figma figures were discontinued after her termination, we may never actually end up seeing this piece of Yozora Mel merchandise.
Don’t Forget the Yozora Mel Album
Yes, Mel released some music! She had an eight-track album of original songs. Considering what’s happened, it might be wise to buy Twinkle Star Magic in the event it is delisted. It costs $12.90 on iTunes and via other storefronts. In the case of other albums that also feature her as a performer, those will still be sold, so you won’t have to rush to pick up something like the Hololive x HoneyWorks Holohoneygaoka High School album.
Keep Listening to Yozora Mel with Voice Packs
There aren’t many Yozora Mel voice packs still available. But before those get pulled, it might be fun to buy one or two if you’re fluent. There are $7 New Year’s Holiday Date ones, with one “closing off 2023” and the other “welcoming 2024.” She also has $7 Japanese and English Starting Voice packs.
