Notes

  • This story takes Go! Go!'s peculiar directive to advertise expensive collector product to small children to new heights as it exists to commemorate the conclusion of the first project in the fantastically expensive (and fantastically breakable) MPG line of high-end combining toys.
  • The nonsense word shushupopo (しゅしゅぽぽ) in the event's title is a combination of a Japanese onomatopoeia for wheels turning (しゅ shu) and a steam whistle (ぽ po) respectively commonly found in children's songs about trains, i.e. pretty much an exact analogue for the English phrase "chugga chugga choo choo".[1][2]
  • This is adorable.
