Where to find Shopkins Season 5?
Shopkins Season 5 are to be released in the United States on May 1st. However Walmart has been selling them online and delivering them for the past 2 weeks. The past few days a few Walmart also started to put out the items on the floor.
After stopping by Toys R Us and was told that the items won't be released till the 1st, I went to Walmart to buy some items. While there I swung by the toy section, just to check in case they had it. I looked around the Shopkins section and saw season 4 shopkins, and then there they were. Packs and packs of Season 5!! They had the mega packs, 12 packs, 5 packs, and the blind boxes. Dozens of them! I was amazed. So I got a few of everything, some 5 packs, 12 packs, all 3 mega packs and a case of the blind boxes. In today's video we will opening 10 of the Shopkins backpack blind boxes.
The new Season 5 shopkins are even cuter than the other seasons, there are petkins mixed in with all of the categories. In addition to the regular Shopkins, there are also metallic, translucent, and electric glow shopkins that glow in the dark.
You can also find them on Amazon: http://amzn.to/1rOylER

New Shopkins Season 4 Sweet Spot Gumball Machine Playset with Bubbleisha...
Moose Toys has really done it, they've created a gumball machine for Shopkins! I've always thought there should be a gumball machine to store Shopkins in similar to the Moshi Monster Gumball machine. Shopkins are small and would be super cute stored inside a gumball machine.
This gumball machine playset is called Sweet Spot and it's part of the Season 4 line, coming out in January. The gumball machine holds 6 gumballs that is perfectly sized to fit 1 Shopkin. The gumball machine is attached to the playset wall.
The wall is covered with shelves, which is perfect for displaying Shopkins. It also comes with a Lollipop stand and a Candy cart that fits even more Shopkins! I think this set displays the most shopkins of any of the Moose Toys Shopkins playset.
In today's video, Bubbleisha is working at Evie's Candy House. She is super excited to show you around the Shopkins Season 4 Sweet Spot Playset. This play set comes with shelves and display along the wall, a Lollipop stand, Candy Cart Trolley, 2 exclusive candy bags, 6 gumballs, 2 exclusive Shopkins, and a working Gumball Machine!
This is a super exciting Shopkins playset because of all of the awesome accessories and it's a beautiful place to display all of your shopkins!
The two exclusive shopkins did not come with a name. But looks like they're a jellybean and a lollipop, do you know what they're called? Let me know below if you do!

40 Mystery Edition Shopkins Unboxing and Review
Moose toys has been teasing the Shopkins fans for weeks now with a special Mystery Edition Shopkins set to release at Target stores only on November 1st. Finally the day is here and I went early to my local Target to see what all the fuss is around.
There were about 15 of us waiting for the store to open. Fortunately, the Target had at least 25 boxes of the Shopkins so that everyone was able to purchase a box. The box retails for $34 and contains 40 Shopkins, 2 baskets and 4 shopping bags. Not too bad considering they contain rare and special editions too.
So the big mystery is that the Mystery Edition contains 40 season 3 shopkins in super bright Neon colors. They are laid out very attractively in a large black box with a velvety interior, like a fancy box of chocolates. The Shopkins are very bright and look really awesome and is a great addition for any collector. I've listed the full list below.
Full list of the Mystery Edition Shopkins:
- Peachy

Shopkins Craze - Where to buy Shopkins Season 3
I went to Toys R Us right went it opened on one of their truck days. The first time, nothing. The store associate told us at the door that they only had a delivery of the Season 2 playsets. Regardless, the handful of us still went in to see for ourselves. We then stood in the aisle, scanning the shelves in case we were somehow misled and a huge case of Shopkins Season 3 would magically appear.
Then I went on a Toys R Us truck day in the middle of the week, Wednesday. I got there about 10 minutes early and waited for the doors to open. There were a few moms in line too. They had gotten to known each other over the past week while waiting for the store to open on truck days. One of the moms showed me a picture of their collection, it was huge, there must be hundreds of season 1 and season 2 Shopkins. She had been looking daily for Season 3 too but haven't had any luck. The doors soon opened and we made a beeline for the Shopkins aisle.
And we saw Shopkins, 2 shelves full of season 3 and 2 more shelves full of season 2. It was an amazing sight. Blind baskets, 12 pack, 6 pack, play sets, shopping carts, they had it all.
The half dozen of us early-birds started looking for the ones we wanted. I felt a little greedy when I grabbed an entire case of the blind baskets, but then I noticed that there were a few more cases of Season 3 and at least 20 cases of Season 2, and still a whole row of 12 and 6 packs so at least there are still plenty left. I figured it would be a waste of time to come every three days to stand in line for the door to open just to grab 5 blind baskets at a time.
15 minutes later, half of the season 3 were gone. Season 2 was mostly untouched since most of the early shoppers were there for season 3. But at this rate I'd imagine that all of season 3 would be gone in the next few hours and season 2 would most likely follow within the next day or two.
Hopefully they will continue to get large shipments of Shopkins for the next few months, because with the way they were flying off the shelves, I think there is still a shortage :)
So here are my lessons learned from the past 2 weeks:
Toys R US
- Ask an associate about their truck day schedule.
- Inquire about the number of people that typically wait for the store to open.
- Ask to see if there is a limit on how many you can buy.
- Arrive when the store opens on a truck day. You might have to go earlier to wait in line if your store gets small deliveries and there are high demand.
- I wouldn't recommend calling first to see if they have it, most likely they would be gone by the time you arrive.
- Online - Sometimes they have Season 3 on sale, usually they are sold out within a day.
Target
- I have not seen any Shopkins Season 3 at Target.
- I find that Target is generally unreliable in terms of predicting when they'd get a shipment.
- An associate might offer to scan the SKU on their handhelds and see if nearby Targets have them in stock but usually that number is inaccurate. One Target told me a nearby target had 120 units in stock, when I went there 10 mins there, they didn't have any.
- Online - I have not seen Season 3 sold online.
Walmart
- I have not seen any Shopkins Season 3 at Walmart.
- I hear that some stores only limit you to 2 items.
Amazon
- Unfortunately, the prices on Amazon are really high, I wouldn't buy them online if you have the other stores nearby.
Ebay
- Also priced pretty high.
Needless to say, I'm loving these little guys, check out the unboxing video of my first Shopkins ever!
