Are they dolls?

Are they collectibles?

yeah, they're little monster dolls people collect

What’s their deal?

I don't get it either tbh

Like I’m hearing you have to buy them online from the direct storefront even though they have displays in retailers

Is this true?

As far as I know, its a clusterfuck to actually get one of these things they have you jump through hoops

remember beanie babies? they're back, in blind box form!

i do think they're pretty cute but I have no desire to jump into the fray for one

I’m mostly curious because they seem to be the ‘in’ collector item right now.

Also they have a big custom/modding scene?

oh yeah there's a huge community for people who make their own clothes/accessories for them which sounds awesome

yeah they're little dolls/stuffed animals that people can hang on their bags. a Popstar made them super popular by wearing one on her purse and it took off from there

they're really cute, but they come in blind boxes so you don't know which one you're going to get until you open it

you can dress them up in little outfits and there's people who like taking pictures of them on little adventures and stuff

but yeah getting one can be a headache, you normally have to get one off the Popmart app when they restock or TikTok's live page

if you live close to a physical store you can get one there but I've heard some stores not selling them bc ppl can't behave themselves

apparently they've been around for a while (since like 2015) but their popularity really exploded after a member of blackpink was shown owning one

look for the 'Where the Wild Things Are' looking dolls. They're cute though, and they are starting to come more available, along with knock offs.
