Panini makes Squishmallow cards now? I ordered some from Target and she was freakin' PUMPED!

Nice! I don't know what a Squishmallow is but good luck!

Someone posted in the box breaks and from the limited few I've seen they look pretty sharp. Let us know what she thinks and how she decides to interact with them (trade, display, stash, etc). Or not!

My wife and son have been collecting them as well. Has been a fun family rip.

did you get any of the first series?

gresh87 · 03-05-2025, 12:39 PM

These are 2024 Series 1. Got 1 megabox on the Target app for 24.99.

She didn't get anything numbered, but she was pumped about getting a Chrome die-cut of the duck (I don't remember his name). She was a little bummed about not getting a single Stanley (the panda), so we might get another box or two.

I need an incentive for when she practices piano; I'm thinking a pack per daily practice session would be a good idea!

It was fun watching her rip through 12 packs!

I thought these were made by Parkside, not Panini?

I'm confused, you got zero numbered cards when it's supposed to be two per mega in the Panini ones? I know it's "on average" but every blaster I've seen has even had one so far and megas gave zero? That's almost complaint worthy unless you got a case-hit like Neon or Color Blast. I actually considered grabbing a blaster of this (couldn't bring myself lol) as it was the one numbered per and I believe the only numbered were /199 and /99 so not terrible worst case /199 but yea.

JMStang · 03-05-2025, 02:28 PM

Some are hard to tell that they are numbered. The holo pink /199 and purple /99 don’t immediately jump out. The design on the back can obscure the number too. May have just been over looked.

Holy wow, JMStang -- where's the numbering on these?!

JMStang · 03-05-2025, 03:45 PM

They’re on the back.

lololololol OK I see them there haha. Thank you.

YayNJ · 03-05-2025, 07:28 PM

I'm not going to admit how long I spent looking for the numbering on the front of those cards

That was kind of my thinking as well, but I didn't want to irk my daughter. The box said "look for" the /199. Well, I looked for it and didn't find it!
