This past weekend at New York Comic Con, I got to see a lot of fun and exciting new toys and collectibles coming out for the 2016 Holidays and into 2017. Some of these were higher end collectibles geared to those who have a lot of money, and some were just cheaper fun ones made for the “common collector” can collect. Hallmark’s new line of vinyl collectibles, which combines their popular ittybittys line and the need for speed that these characters have. Here are Squeeleys.
The initial release of line includes six figures in the DC line, and one in the Star Trek line. For DC, there is Batman (01), Superman (02), Wonder Woman (03), The Flash (04), Batgirl (05), and Aquaman (06). All of them are retail priced at $16.95.
In the Star Trek line, Kirk has been announced. Kirk is priced at $19.95, part of their 50th Anniversary celebration of Star Trek.
At New York Comic Con, there was an exclusive Squeeleys to purchase at the Hallmark POP- Minded booth. Numbered 00 and labeled as the “Series 1 Debut”, here is a closer look at Batman from the Classic TV Series.
Overall, I really like the look of this new collectible. I am not sure if I will collect all of the releases, but I will pick up pieces here and there (like I did with this Batman and will do for Kirk). Since the ittybittys Hallmark line also includes Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars characters… I really hope that we will eventually see this line expanded to include Mickey Mouse, Spider-Man, Darth Vader, and more.
What do you think of the new Squeeleys line from Hallmark? Let us know your thoughts below.
