Spy x Family is collaborating with Japanese confectionery line Bikkuriman on some delicious new treats — including an exclusive series of themed character stickers.
As detailed on Crunchyroll, Lotte’s “Bikkuriman” treat line is best known for the highly collectible foil stickers packaged with its products. Now, Spy x Family has teamed up with the famous brand for a new collaboration. Renamed “Spyfamilyman,” the product consists of a simple chocolate wafer and a shiny foil sticker depicting one or more of the beloved Spy x Family characters. Including tax, the dish costs 140 yen (about $1) and is available in Eastern Japan, where Bikkuriman is headquartered. They will be available for purchase in other regions of Japan at a later date.
