They're not hamsters, they're guinea pigs, OP.

They're also adorable as gently caress and I can't wait for the next episode :f5:.

Somehow I didn't connect that Pui was such an obvious onomatopoeia :doh:.

I guess the English title would be something like "Squeak-Squeak Guinea-Cars/Pig-Cars" then?

Bandai Namco's Arts channel on Youtube is showing Pui Pui Molcars officially, albeit cycling an episode for the week it airs.

Begs the question, is getting pooped out by your molcar a common danger?

I think it's more that he made his poor guineacar sick to the point of a total intestinal purge. If we want to get into this, the interior cab seems to be like a secondary sac and stuff getting in/out of it is because things aren't flowing as they should through the rest of the poor critter.

The real answer is poop jokes are universally funny for all ages.

I love a lot of the little details in this show, because there's a lot of stuff here that clearly came from someone actually owning guinea pigs rather than just using the animals as a cute design base. That fridge opening and getting EVERY molcar's attention got a chuckle from me, because that sound is ingrained into the brain of every guinea pig kept indoors. THE FRIDGE MEANS VEGGIES! :byodood:

That and the good old tug-of-war the little fellows like to have over the same bit of food, even when there's plenty of it around. :allears:

:siren:Official Molcar Plushies are being made:siren:

A set of five initially, the "main" brown-and-white one, the white one, the chocolate one with flowers on the ears, the police molcar, and the ambulance molcar. 990Y blind-boxes in stores, or the full set of five for 4950Y, and they look like they'll be out around May-ish. It says they're around 8CM long, so I think that'd be around the size of the animation models, wouldn't it? They look about that size at a rough guess.

You know, I swear that gatling gun is actually a Kotobukiya part. Which is pretty ironic really.

Someone on the modelling team is clearly a Wallace and Gromit fan with this week's Molcars

The Car Wash machine's clearly based on the machine from A Close Shave.

better view of Molcar movies



Oh come on; "Molkira" is right there, minor background parody poster! :argh:

Also I'm half-hoping we get to see a Molformer at some point in this silly show :allears:.

3 days until it's on Netflix and I can force everyone I know to watch it!

It's up on Netflix now. Looks like they've grouped the episodes into bulk videos (eg; episodes 1+2+3 together), but retain the individual opening and ending credits.

Hang on, is one of those minigames just Rocket League but with Molcars?

Because now I want a Molcars tie-in with Rocket League. Also a western release of this game (:pray:).

It's the Asian release, I don't think it got NA, EUR, or AUS official release.

Where did some of my money just go and why do I now have a shipping receipt for a copy coming in the mail? :ohdear:

I splurged on the Collector's Edition of Let's Molcar Party, and it comes with an adorable "plush pouch" of Potato that's about the size a Switch game case in length and width (it's got a zipper and a keychain on it so you can use it as a small bag by the looks of it).

I actually wouldn't be surprised if this thing's technically 1:1 scale with the filming props, or even slightly larger.
