Singapore Welcomes Back POP TOY SHOW with Exciting "Dimoo In the Garden City"

Hi Huneybees,

After the overwhelming success of the inaugural POP TOY SHOW (PTS) in Singapore last September, global sensation POP MART is excited to announce the return of this highly anticipated event. The 2nd edition will be held at Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Level 1 - Halls A, B, and C, from 23 to 25 August 2024.

This year’s headliner is Dimoo, a top fan favorite from POP MART. Themed “Dimoo in the Garden City”,  the 2024 show promises a larger and more exciting lineup of international, regional, and local artists, participating brands, and exclusive collectible art toys for fans and collectors.

“I am really happy to be able to return to Singapore for the second PTS, and I definitely look forward to meeting Dimoo fans from around the world” --- Ayan Deng, artist of Dimoo. 

This time, fans who could not get enough of the curious boy with a baby cloud on his head, can expect more than four (4) PTS-exclusive Dimoo drops, and snap photos at Dimoo’s booth that features a life-sized sculpture.

Lang, the artist behind Hirono and Head of the POP Design Center (PDC), is another fan favorite confirmed for this year's show. Joining Lang are two young artists from PDC, Xue Chen, the creator of Sweet Bean, and Yumi, the artist behind Pino Jelly. Both will be making their debut appearance in Singapore to meet their fans. This year, PDC will have its own standalone booth showcasing its staple Intellectual Property (IP), with several first launches and Singapore-exclusive toys.

"From custom skateboards and sneakers to streetwear, fans can expect many new and fresh collections debuting at PTS Singapore. I hope they enjoy what they see." --- Quiccs

Additionally, Quiccs, a renowned artist from the Philippines, is preparing to showcase his latest works at PTS Singapore. Known for his street art and the character TEQ63, Quiccs has collaborated with many notable brands, including Adidas and Jollibee. 

The exhibition will feature over 50 different artists, toy designers, and international toy brands during the three-day extravaganza. Highlights include exclusive meet and greet sessions with renowned POP MART artists, the unveiling of exclusive merchandise, and captivating live drawing sessions by a myriad of talented artists.

“Since the last PTS in Singapore, POP MART has continued to expand our footprints globally with many new stores opening in Thailand, Vietnam, Europe and US. We believe PTS Singapore will be a good meeting point for all our loyal and new fans to meet and interact, not only within the community, also with the artists, brands and collaborators” --- Justin Moon, President of POP MART International.

Tickets for the show are currently available through Ticketmaster. Purchase them via bit.ly/pts2024ticket. Options include 1-Day, 3-Day, Group (4 pax) 1-Day, and Premium 3-Day tickets, starting from $28 for early bird tickets. Stay tuned to PTS's website and social media pages for more updates.

I Was Part of the Biggest CapitaLand x POP MART Unboxing Bash in Southeast Asia

Hi Huneybees,

I was thrilled to be part of the Biggest Unboxing Bash Ever last weekend, 2 December 2023. Hubby and I joined 165 POP MART fans at Funan, unboxing their blind boxes all at the same time. A new record in the Singapore Book of Records was formed for the highest number of people unboxing blind boxes together in Singapore. 

Presented by CapitaLand and in partnership with POP MART, the event saw fans from Singapore’s POP MART fan community setting the record at this inaugural unboxing bash. As part of the unboxing experience, each fan was gifted a surprise blind box from the latest festive collections released on 17 November 2023 and many other best-selling series including the Molly Imaginary Wandering Series, SKULLPANDA The Ink Plum Blossom Series, Disney 100th Anniversary Bell Series, and Sweet Bean Frozen Time Dessert Box Series.

The Level 1 Atrium of Funan was transformed into a POP MART playground, bringing fans together and offering a one-of-a-kind lifestyle experience that fosters a greater sense of community. The Unboxing Bash provided like-minded fans with the opportunity to interact with one another and create lasting shared memories. POP MART Global ambassador Zong Shijie also made an appearance and shared the special moment with fans.

They also got to enjoy other activities which included toy swaps with other collectors and photo-worthy moments with captivating life-sized 3D sculptures of Molly, Dimoo and SKULLPANDA. Fans had the chance to test their POP MART knowledge through trivia games and earned POP MART merchandise as reward. They also shared with one another how they became fans of POP MART and started their toy-collecting journey.

The online registration for the event was open for one week and saw overwhelming responses with a total over-subscription of 658%. Setting a new record for unboxing, the bash is a testament to the unboxing craze that has been making waves amongst fans across ages and generations. 

Yup, I'm one of them too. Who has recently taken a liking to the SKULLPANDA series. It first started with me liking these dolls with hair buns and dramatic makeup (given that I am a makeup addict), each pairing with a theme, makes me want to see what designs keep coming up. Then I guess it's the thrill of never knowing what you will get that makes me want to join in the craze and get my full collection. I went down the spiral and I want to collect them all!

Held as part of CapitaLand’s festive campaign, you are also invited to Embark on an Enchanted Journey with Asia’s largest holiday extravaganza with POP MART, featuring Disney-themed toys across 16 CapitaLand malls islandwide. You can look forward to immersing yourselves in the festivities at CapitaLand Malls, with larger-than-life POP MART installations featuring Disney-themed toys, experience a mesmerizing 360° multi-sensory digital journey with the Enchanted Express train installation at Plaza Singapura, and stand to win rewards while you shop this festive season. More information can be found here. I've been going town with these photo spots, stay tuned to my Insta and Tik Tok ~
