Overview
The TIP121 is a darlington Transistor made by SPTECH in a TO-220C package with 3 pins. -65℃~+150℃ 1000 2.5V 200uA 4V 5A 5V 65W 80V NPN TO-220C Darlington Transistors ROHS.
PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:TIP121, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-220-3_Vertical, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. JLCPCB lists it (part C2907696).

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the TIP121?
Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:TIP121 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-220-3_Vertical, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the TIP121?
TO-220C, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where can I order the TIP121?
JLCPCB lists it as part C2907696, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the TIP121?
Parts like it in the library: the TIP122 by STMicroelectronics, the BDW94C by STMicroelectronics, the TIP120 by STMicroelectronics and the TIP122 by Slkor. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
