Do you love collectibles but have trouble snagging them? Your struggles are over because SM Mall of Asia is bringing the first-ever POP MART pop-up store to the Philippines. Thanks to SM, get ready to enter a world of anik-anik collectibles as POP MART brings you the figures you have always wanted.

Forget the days of pasabuys, paying high prices online, or worse, fakes. Head to Level 2, North Entertainment of SM Mall of Asia to find these adorable figures. The pop-up store opened its doors on Nov. 2, and will be open through Jan. 26, 2025, so you can delight your inner child throughout the holidays.

Here’s a list of absolute must-haves that you can get at the POP MART pop-up store at SM:

Labubu 

You’ve probably seen Marian Rivera and Heart Evangelista showing off these fluffy elves that have captured everyone’s hearts. From colorful bag trinkets to dolls of all sizes, this captivating elf with pointy ears, a signature grin, and her pals from The Monsters series, you’ll find them all at POP MART. 

Space Molly

Here’s a character that embodies the modern-day explorer’s adventurous spirit. Based on the Molly character series, this fan favorite usually has a space-themed design. Think starry patterns, astronaut suits, and planetary themes, all in a futuristic but fun series.

Hirono 

If there’s a reason why Hirono is so well-loved by fans, it’s because he mirrors just about all the emotions that humans feel—love, joy, sadness, fear, kindness, cowardice, and more. Created by Chinese artist Lang, who explores the emotional ebbs and flows of everyday life, you’d want to have Hirono to remind you of the highs and lows of life. 

CryBaby 

How can you resist CryBaby? This figure embraces vulnerability, letting tears flow in response to the highs and lows of daily life, in cute figurines, phone cases, earphones, and what have you. If you love The Powerpuff Girls, then the CryBaby x PowerPuff series is worth getting.

Skull Panda 

Cute and spooky, Skull Panda is another must-buy. As a universal symbiont, it travels freely between planets, plays different roles, and experiences different lives. If you want something edgy in your collectibles, it should be Skull Panda!

Here’s a fun tip: For an added thrill, get yourself one of the blind boxes. POP MART’s blind boxes are mystery packages that contain collectibles from a themed series. Some of them even include rare “secret” items! Re-experience your joy as a child as you open a surprise gift. If you can’t choose from all the POP MART pop-up store collectibles, let fate choose for you. 

No pre-registration is required, making it so much easier to access the store. Just get a flash pass at the pop-up store, which will designate a specific time for you to return and shop. No need to waste precious hours standing in line—just show up at the assigned time and dive into the collection.

Whether you’re new to the collectibles craze or a long-time collector, the POP MART pop-up store at SM makes it so much easier for you to experience the joy these characters bring. SM is committed to bringing first-in-market experiences to delight Filipino consumers.

Dive into the world of POP MART collectibles and get your fill of anik-aniks at Level 2, North Entertainment, SM Mall of Asia, where shopping and fun always go hand in hand.
