The Rare Original

This is the piece that started the pod. Released exclusively as the 2017 Christmas Present (Model OS-12), the Baby Whale is the highly collectible predecessor to the "Whale Type 1". Available now in pre-owned condition, it represents a unique opportunity to own a piece of Karakuri history.

Peek Inside the Belly

Crafted from warm Walnut and Mizuki (Dogwood), this friendly whale features a unique gimmick not found in many boxes. Osamu Kasho designed it so you can peek inside the mechanism as you solve it. It’s not just about opening the box; it’s about understanding the "life" inside the creature.

Compact Charm

Slightly smaller than the later production models, the Baby Whale (10.2 x 6.2 cm) fits delightfully in the palm. While it focuses more on the mechanical movement than storage capacity, its charm and rarity make it a heavyweight in any collection.
