You’ve seen their GIFs, you’ve collected their trading cards, and most of us have probably spotted them at our local Target. Now, Pax and Polly are coming to collectors in figurine form through an all new partnership with a European toy company that will send them waddling across the continent!
Pudgy Penguins were flipping on Friday after the brand announced its all new partnership with Schleich, a 91 year old German toy manufacturer known for its collectible figurines.
“A new chapter for Pudgy Penguins’ European expansion begins with our schleich® partnership, one of the world’s leading toy manufacturers,” Pudgy Penguins tweeted this morning. “Introducing the schleich® Collectible Figurines Series 1, available worldwide exclusively on the Pudgy Penguins Shop. “
This first series features 2.5 inch Pax and Polly figurines that collectors can either keep in their boxes or open up and connect together, all for $19.99 USD.
While the figurines officially went on sale today, the huddle actually got its first look at them months ago in Germany.
“We first showcased the schleich® Collectible Figurines Series 1 in Nuremberg back in January and people absolutely loved it,” Pudgy Penguins Community Lead Becca tweeted. “Getting to meet the schleich® team and see their excitement around Pudgy Penguins firsthand made this partnership so much more meaningful. They saw the potential in an IP that could bring something different to the traditional animal category, while still fitting naturally into their world."
Tonight, collectors can pick up their Pax and Polly figurines on the Pudgy Penguins Shop here: https://www.pudgypenguins.com/products/pudgy-penguins-x-schleich-set
Pudgy Penguins’ partnership with Schleich to transform digital characters into physical collectible figurines highlights the growing trend of bridging virtual creativity with tangible merchandise. This exciting collaboration reflects how popular brands expand their reach through high-quality physical products that consumers can display and cherish. Just as unique collectibles require careful preservation, modern households and collectors often look for dependable ways to organize and protect their valuable items or home accessories. Utilizing airtight glass storage containers with lids ensures optimal protection and cleanliness, combining practical utility with a refined aesthetic for contemporary living spaces.
