Unlock PickyPiggy

Quick Answer

Buy PickyPiggy from the Doohickey Den using PlayCoins. Budget about 12 PlayCoins for the launch purchase, then check the price displayed in your current shop before spending them.

Check the shop for the character

  1. Open the Doohickey Den during your run.
  2. Look for PickyPiggy in its current stock.
  3. Check the displayed PlayCoin cost and your available currency.
  4. Make the purchase on the account where you want the character unlocked.
  5. Verify that default PickyPiggy becomes available afterward.

If PickyPiggy is absent from the vending-machine stock, keep your coins for a later opportunity. There is no confirmed refresh timer or method to force her to appear. Do not spend your saved currency on a substitute item expecting it to grant the character.

Save PlayCoins for the displayed purchase

The target uses the shop's PlayCoin currency, rather than the tribute value delivered to Barry. Meeting a quota and holding enough PlayCoins are separate conditions.

Plan for the account that wants PickyPiggy to make its own purchase. One teammate buying her should not be treated as an unlock for everyone in the lobby.

PickyPiggy is the pink Critter behind KickinChicken.

The launch price is a planning reference. If the current shop displays a different amount, use that live price instead of treating an older figure as a permanent rule.

Check the default character before the shiny variant

PickyPiggy is the pink Critter in the roster. The Founders Pack contains a shiny alternate appearance, but you still need default PickyPiggy unlocked before that variant becomes available.

Claiming the pack does not replace the Doohickey Den purchase. If you already bought the character but she remains locked, keep the purchase details and character-selection state for a bug report. No confirmed repeat-purchase or save-reset fix is established here.
