Klonoa and Hewpoe on a Bandai Namco 2020 calendar

They're on the January page with a Mii and Pac-Man. No idea if this is just an internal thing, or if it's for sale.

Look at him go! Klonoa is going to win this race (marathon?), just you see.

Here's my two cents on this calendar page (copied from @ Blog):
It is worth mentioning that one of the pages features Mr. Driller artwork, which was recently trademarked along with Klonoa and other Namco series to possibly be receiving "Encore" game releases. (Mr. Driller Encore, Wagyan Land Encore, Genpei Shigenden Encore, Splatterhouse Encore, and Klonoa Encore.) The Prince from the Katamari series and one of the characters from the Kotoba no Puzzle: Mojipittan series appears as well. Katamari having received an Encore (or Rerolled overseas) title in 2018 and Mojipittan to be receiving one Spring 2020. Their appearance is either coincidence or on purpose.

Klonoa's design and Huepow there as makes me think it might be Klonoa Wii.

Sure. I'll buy Door to Phantomile for Switch.

That's pretty interesting, hope it'll befor sale overseas

...interesting that all the running characters have something on their heads; sunglasses, hats, crowns, or robotic device.

I received my calendar in the mail yesterday (JP Mercari via Buyee) and scanned all the pages, if you're curious to see.

That's an official plushie??

Yeah, that's one of the Klonoa plushies. I got him on ebay when they may have been a bit cheaper/common eons ago and I was very young, so he is definitely not in mint condition.

Maybe, but you still have him around and it doesn't look that bad! I'm just glad we still have remnants of him around. We're really hurting for some new content.
