POP MART & ActionCity Are Launching The First POP TOY SHOW In Singapore This September
Perhaps it's the adrenaline rush of unboxing a mystery toy, the thrill of getting exactly when you were eyeing for, or the simple satisfaction of owning a cute collectible figurine. Whatever it is, blind box toys have a vice-like grip on many of us. This blind box collecting culture is particularly strong in China, where POP MART Toy Shows have been hosted in Beijing and Shanghai.
And now, we get to indulge in our very own toy show too! POP MART and ActionCity are launching the first POP TOY SHOW outside of China in Singapore this September.

Shop For POP MART & More Toys
Held at Marina Bay Sands from 8 to 10 September 2023, the 3-day event will house not only POP MART figures but other well-loved collectibles including Hot Toys and Medicom BE@RBRICK.
Visitors can look forward to a whole 7,950 square meters of toy paradise showcasing over 50 artists, toy designers and international toy brands.
Meet POP MART Designers
POP MART collectors will be able to meet artists in the flesh! Kenny Wong, the designer of MOLLY, Pucky, the designer of Pucky, and Ayan Deng, the designer of Dimoo, will be arriving on our shores for the first time. The artists will be there to share about their creations and even host autograph and live illustration sessions for those who purchase their collectibles.
Tenowned local artists including Rex Lee (My Spacecats), Yang (Ooja) and Lesdoublewood (Jelilo) will also be at the Toy Show to offer some up-close and personal interactive activities.
That's all the deeds for now, but here's a look at the Shanghai Toy Show in 2020 for a hint of what we can expect at the Singapore Toy Show:
