There are so many things in the series that would make for amazing scale figure models. Castle Dedede, NOVA, The Access Ark, Star Dream, Gigavolt, The Lore Star Cutter, etc. HAL is great when it comes to creative looking machinery. Robobot is prime material for that sort of thing.
As much as I love the lean into makeup HAL is doing as of recent I do wish they'd make some more creative merchandise that's tailored towards hobbyist adults that are more expensive thus better quality. Scale figure model kits or even full on miniature scene and setting kits would be perfect for Kirby. Imagine a model kit that lets you build the Fountain of Dreams, you even get a little miniature Kirby and King Dedede and Nightmare. Or a scale cutaway illustration (think Christopher Cushman type stuff) styled Halberd model kit where you can build the individual parts of the Halberd. Hell, let me make Whispy Woods too. HAL is seriously missing out on a lot of money by not capitilizing on things that aren't cutesy plushies or trinkets like badges or acrylic keychains with the same five recycled illustrations. At least there's stuff like pic related to see as a reference point if you want to do it yourself.
