Pop Vinyl Figurines Are Making a Comeback

​

Chances are that you have already seen a few of these adorable little figurines hanging out in the toy aisle of your local grocery store. In fact, you may have seen them in many other stores as well as on the internet. Social media simply cannot get enough of these little toys and this article is going to tell you why.  Here's a good read about Western mini, check it out! 

​

First, it is important to understand exactly what these toys are. If you haven't seen one, basically the toys are about 5 inches tall and are made of vinyl. They depict various characters in pop culture, including, but not limited to characters from movies, books, television shows, and internet memes. Since they are so small, it is easy to find room on a shelf or desk for an entire set of characters from your favorite show.
 
The toys appeal to both genders for a variety of reasons. Mostly, it is due to their comic and cartoon-like appearance. The toys usually have slightly oversized heads and eyes. They also do not have removable clothes or lifelike hair, as did girl's toys of the past. Instead, all of their attributes, clothes and otherwise, are molded and painted straight on the vinyl. This gives them a stylized appearance that is attractive for both genders. 

​

You have probably also noticed that the dolls are collected by adults too. In fact, they make sensational gifts for anyone in your life that has a favorite character. Are you worried that you might not find the character you really want? Well, you really should not be. Pretty much any major character or series has been recreated in the form of these toys. If the show or movie has a reasonably sized fan base, you can bet that you can find vinyl toys for its characters. 

​

For that reason, however, you should look to purchase these figures online. You are much more likely to find the characters you want that way, as opposed to whatever random figures that your nearest toy store sells. Plus, you have much more control over the quality of the item if you buy it from a reputable brand online. After some brief research, you will discover that there are a few companies that design and manufacture these dolls. Each one has some distinctive style elements, which means you have a lot more choice in terms of picking the design you want.
