Everybody loves em’ their Pocky, right?

They come in so many shapes, sizes and flavours, it would require an encyclopedia to keep track of their variety.

Here are some obscure ones.

Pocky X Star Wars

I mean, they’re so cool that I wouldn’t mind being Force-fed.

One Piece

Or how about this One Piece special in Akihabara where one piece of this gem clearly isn’t enough.

Rainbow

Or this Rainbow/Unicorn Pocky which might give Paddle Pop a run for its money.

Adult Amber Whisky

Or this clearly-adult variant which comes with malt extract, bitter chocolate and a whisky aroma?

Seeing as to how the Sakura season is almost upon us in Japan, wouldn’t it be awesome if there was some form of Sakura Pocky in town too?

Cue The Limited Edition Glico Sakura Range.

Now if you can’t tell, the new Sakura range comes in three options.

Sakura Pocky
Sakura Collon
Sakura Pejoy

Here’s a video up on Pocky SG’s Facebook introducing their arrival.

This is the caption which accompanied their post:

Limited, Really Limited

That said, it appears that this Limited Edition Glico Sakura Range is really very limited, and this is no exaggeration.

A quick Google search should more often than not toss up some relevant link or information on the said search.

This current Sakura Range doesn’t seem to enjoy the ubiquity of its other Pocky counterparts.

On Carousell, there wasn’t a proper hit on the all-pink Sakura.

Indicating that perhaps even scalpers were unsuccessful.

FairPrice Online didn’t appear to stock them either.

There was no such luck either on Honestbee as well.

So where on Earth does one get it?

According to this Pocky SG Instagram post, they can be found at NTUC Fairprice, RedMart and PRIME.

To be honest, no such luck on RedMart too, which has since been absorbed into Lazada’s platform.

And Pocky seems to be encountering quite a fair bit of disgruntled customers on their Facebook post too, with most sharing that the NTUC outlets they’ve been to have run out of stock.

However, us hardworking folks at Goody Feed did indeed find a merchant on Shopee with 2,973,093 stock on hand.

I kid you not.

Here it is.

The merchant is apparently called ann1824, has a response time of 49% and has been on Shopee for almost 3 years.

So folks, if you are keen on getting the Sakura Pocky, perhaps try this merchant?

A disclaimer though.

We didn’t try ordering from ann1824 as Pocky isn’t Cai Png and folks at Goody Feed only ever eat Cai Png.

Let us know if the order was successful , will you?
