I love these collectible mini plush by U.K. art & design team TADO. I think the blackbird is my favorite although it is hard to choose! Find them at kidrobot.

Menta-Kun and Chibi Menta by Dehara
Dehara Yukinori is an artist from Japan. Amongst other things, he makes designer vinyl toys. My personal favorites are the Menta-Kun and Chibi Menta guys (both available at rotofugi). I don’t know what they are, but they are adorable.
Something tells me there’s a vaguely disturbing explanation for what these guys are judging from Dehara’s other works. But I prefer to just think of them as adorable little veiny guys who sit on a shelf in my dining room and make me happy! haha.
Marshall Zipper Charms
These adorable marshmallow-themed zipper pulls are designer vinyl toys which fall into the spendier price range. But if you’re into collecting that kinda thing, you can buy a set of 16 of these little cuties all with different personalities for $60. I love that the boxes are as awesomely appealing as the toys.
Designed by Squibbles Ink + Rotofugi and available at the awesome designer vinyl toy store Rotofugi.
