It turns out Mario isn’t the only master hoarder on Nintendo’s books. The little pink star-surfer is somewhat of a collector himself, and in Kirby and the Forgotten Land, he needs to locate all the capsules he can to turn Waddle Dee Town into a safe haven for his old friends. So, it’s time to get get your gacha on, and collect, collect, collect.
With our guide to Kirby and the Forgotten Land capsules, you’ll have a full table of figurines for Kirby to look longingly at atop his fireplace. To add more capsules to your collection, you can find them while out adventuring, or you can pay ten star coins at the gotcha machine in Waddle Dee Town for a guaranteed figurine.
For more on Kirby’s 3D debut, be sure to check out our guides to Kirby and the Forgotten Land copy abilities, Kirby and the Forgotten Land bosses, and Kirby and the Forgotten Land missions. Or, if you’re not ready to take the star-surfer into the next dimension, see our list of the best Switch platformers for some top-tier alternatives.
What are Kirby and the Forgotten Land figures and capsules?
Kirby and the Forgotten Land capsules are collectable in-game items, each containing a special figurine to add to your stash. From the mini-impressions of Kirby himself, to the various enemies that the star-surfer has to contend with, there are more than enough to keep you busy collecting.
You also find figures in Waddle Dee Town, through helpful members of the community like Wise Waddle Dee, Waddle Dee-liveries, and the Waddle Dee cafe. You can find seven figurines when Waddle Dee Town is fully functional, with a secret eighth available after the post-game.
Each capsule is part of a larger set, known as volumes, that you unlock as Kirby finds his way through the Forgotten Land, beating bosses and freeing Waddle Dees. The capsules come range from one-star to four-star rating, with each three-star and four-star figurine having its own neat little description when on display.
How do I access my Kirby and the Forgotten Land figure collection?
You can easily access your Kirby and the Forgotten Land figure collection by pressing the “-” button on your Switch while in Waddle Dee Town, or when star-surfing Kirby is deciding on a destination in the overworld.
All Kirby and the Forgotten Land figures
With the exception of the Waddle Dee Town figures, what figures you receive from a capsule are randomised, so there’s no way of guaranteeing the last item you need to complete your collection, you just have to pray to the Gotcha machine gods for some good luck.
