Update (8/22): Now confirmed to be the red Ember.

Natsume is including different Ember plushies with Hometown Story pre-orders. GameStop will be giving out a green Ember. Natsume’s store is offering a yellow one. And it looks like Amazon will have its own Ember up for grabs, too.

Amazon is currently taking pre-orders for “Hometown Story with Ember the Dragon Plush”. With green and yellow colors already taken, Amazon should be providing either a blue or red plushie.
