Yoshi, Mario’s iconic dinosaur companion, is once again capturing the hearts of fans both on-screen and off.
Following last month’s major reveal of Yoshi as a significant character in the much-anticipated Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Nintendo and toy manufacturer Spin Master are rolling out a brand-new merchandise tie-in: the Hatchin’ Yoshi interactive toy.
With hype building for the Illumination-helmed Super Mario Galaxy Movie—set for a North American theater release on April 3, 2026, and in Japan on April 24, 2026—Spin Master is leveraging the renewed spotlight on Yoshi with its latest Primal Hatch product. **Hatchin’ Yoshi: Innovative Interactive Toy Experience** Unveiled exclusively by Nerdist, the Hatchin’ Yoshi brings the magic of Nintendo’s world and Illumination’s adaptation into fans’ homes.
Retailing for $59.99, this interactive Yoshi figure follows in the footsteps of Spin Master’s egg-bursting Primal Hatch lineup—a series recognized for its engaging, life-like features and attention to detail. According to Spin Master, the experience begins by tapping, knocking, and rocking the unique Yoshi egg.
As the interactive process unfolds, the egg responds with movements and sounds, culminating in the egg cracking open to reveal Yoshi himself.
Upon hatching, Yoshi greets his new owner with an unmistakable, cheerful ‘Yoshi!’ After hatching, owners can continue to engage with the toy—patting Yoshi’s head or touching his nose triggers different playful sounds.
By pressing down on the shell, Yoshi responds with a range of adorable noises, capturing the personality that fans have come to love from the long-standing Nintendo character. **Global Release and Pre-Order Details** Spin Master’s Hatchin’ Yoshi is available to pre-order now at Walmart in the US for $49.88, with wide in-store rollout scheduled for March 21st.
UK fans can look forward to pre-ordering the toy via Smyths for £59.99, ahead of its arrival in stores.
The accessibility of this product through major retailers underscores the global appeal and strategic rollout coinciding with the film’s momentum. **Super Mario Galaxy Movie: Launching a New Era for Mario and Friends** The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is poised as a major entertainment event, combining Nintendo’s beloved franchise with Illumination’s successful animation pedigree.
With a U.S.
release date of April 3, 2026, and a Japan debut on April 24, 2026, anticipation continues to mount among moviegoers and game enthusiasts alike.
Yoshi’s prominent role in the film has fueled excitement for both the movie and related merchandise like the Hatchin’ Yoshi toy. As the launch date for the Super Mario Galaxy Movie approaches, fans can look forward to further collaborations between Nintendo, Illumination, and Spin Master, signaling a bright future for Mario-themed experiences both on and off-screen.
