Tetris. Officially the greatest game known to man and where spare time goes to die. Rest in peace spare time, we've got parties to go to now, parties that are going to be playing that weird russian jingle music as we try to connect a line.

These costumes are made with pop-up technology, so that they fold down into a convenient carry bag but instantly pop up into shape quicker than you can say Tetronimo – that is the name of a block – we just learned that. Choose from all of the classic shapes in fun and funky colours!

So swing by and get your group costume sorted today!

Jute is the most environmentally friendly fibre, from seed to expired fibre. One hectare of Jute plants consumes over 15 tonnes of CO2, several times more than trees.

Adorable new Japanese Character onesies are in stock now!

Clothing & Footwear

Add a comment By Rebecca

We love a good onesie as much as the next person, so we've decided to expand the range to include all your favourite Japanese characters as well!

These Kigurumi onesies are made from the highest quality fleece which won't tear or fade. They're also conveniently machine washable and dry quickly on the line. Choose from:

Kigurumi comes from a combination of two Japanese words: kiru (“to wear”) and nuigurumi (“stuffed toy”). Traditionally, it referred specifically to the performers wearing the costume, but the word has since grown to include the costumes themselves. In Japan, kigurumi costumes are worn as a way to break the conventions of traditional dress… or just as comfy pajamas!

New wallets from the Star Wars universe are in stock now!

Two new officially licensed Star Wars wallets have just arrived at Mighty Ape!

You can choose from either the Star Wars Rebel Alliance Bi-Fold Wallet which features the rebellion logo and makes sure everyone knows of your affection towards the Republic!

Or perhaps a Star Wars Mandalorian Bi-Fold Wallet is more your speed because sometimes, a bounty hunter needs to carry around some credit chips to get the kind of info he needs to track a mark. Boba Fett knows it, which is why he has a special wallet, just for carrying around the kind of cash you might need to make a shady back-alley deal on Coruscant.

Both are made from polyurethane, polyester and cotton blend faux leather and feature the Star Wars logo on the inside alongside clear ID slot, pockets for bills, cards and credit chips.

If you haven't heard of FRANK. yet then you're missing an amazing company doing their part for New Zealand.

Inspired by the buy-one-give-one model, FRANK. founders Jason & Jess believe that everyone deserves a fair chance to gain an education. They have seen poverty in 3rd world countries as well as here at home and were compelled to create a business that would impact communities in a positive way. Many young New Zealanders lack basic school resources and so FRANK. was founded with the intention of providing stationery to those in need.

Here at Mighty Ape we've just stocked in a huge range of FRANK. stationery and back to school goodies! There are plenty of different designs and colours available.
