Merry Christmas, Suteki fam! As the sun sets on 2025, we’re taking a moment to look back at an incredible year. From the high-stakes thrill of unboxing a rare secret figure to the simple comfort of a new desk companion, it’s been a year defined by "Suteki" (wonderful) moments.
Today, we’re celebrating the products you loved the most this year. If you missed out on any of these, consider this your 2025 recap of the must-haves that defined our community!
1. The Vinyl Plush Revolution: Love League Buddies
This year, the "Vinyl Plush" trend took the collecting world by storm, and nothing captured your hearts quite like the Molinta zzoton x Sanrio Love League Buddies.
By combining the artistic, cozy aesthetic of Molinta with the iconic charm of Sanrio, these blind boxes became an instant sensation. Whether you were hunting for the sporty Cinnamoroll or the perfectly accessorized Kuromi, the unique texture—soft plush bodies with detailed vinyl faces—made these the ultimate "hybrid" collectible of 2025.
2. Character Spotlight: Mofusand Mania
If 2025 had a mascot at Suteki Gifts, it was definitely the Mofusand Shark Cat. Whether it was the thermal water bottles or the "Chubby Mini Figures," these shark-costumed kitties swam straight into your hearts. We’ve loved seeing your desk setups featuring these bread-loving, shark-wearing felines—they truly brought a sense of whimsy to workspaces everywhere!
3. The "Treat Yourself" King: Sanrio Home & Tech
It wasn't just about the figures this year; it was about making your entire environment more Kawaii. The Cinnamoroll Nemu Nemu Sleepy Time Silicone Light became a viral favorite for nighttime vibes, and our Sanrio Custom Eraser Keychains allowed you to bring a piece of the shop wherever you went. Practicality meets cuteness!
4. The Icons: Labubu, Skullpanda, Crybaby, and Miffy
The energy around our designer collectibles and iconic characters this year was unmatched. Our community showed incredible passion for these four powerhouses:
-
Labubu & Skullpanda: POPMART fans made their voices heard! Whether it was the mischievous energy of Labubu or the stunning, artistic complexity of a new Skullpanda series, these figures remained the crown jewels of your display shelves.
-
Crybaby: We couldn't get enough of those relatable tears! The emotional depth and unique designs of Crybaby series resonated deeply with collectors looking for something with a bit of "soul."
-
Miffy: On the softer side, our Miffy collection brought that classic, minimalist Dutch-meets-Japanese aesthetic that you all adored. From fluffy pouches to kitchenware, Miffy proved that simple and sweet is always in style.
5. Aesthetic Essentials: Maison De Fleur
For those who love the "elegant-kawaii" look, our Maison De Fleur collection remained the gold standard. The signature ribbon tote bags and limited-edition cinema plushies were favorites for fans who want to blend high-end fashion with their love for all things cute. You proved that you can be a collector and stay incredibly chic.
