The world has officially gone gaga for ZURU’s 5 Surprise Mini Brands which has become a viral sensation with #minibrands videos having over 3.2 billion views on TikTok (#minibrands) and 90 million capsules sold since launching in 2019.

Selling every two seconds, Mini Brands is the number one toy in the US and has sparked a worldwide TikTok craze. Mini brands have become more TikTok famous than the top-trending Kardashians.

Now Australia and New Zealand have their very own exclusive capsules to collect including iconic, beloved brands so familiar down under including Kraft, Heinz, Chupa Chups, Warheads, PEZ and Mentos, in addition to international brands such as Hershey’s and Reese’s Pieces.

In an age where in-person shopping experiences or a trip to leave the house at all have been few and far between, ZURU’s 5 Surprise Mini Brands have brought the world to your home, becoming the ticket to some much needed escapism! Kids and adults can collect all of the Mini Brands to create a mini shop of their own and can store items in the Mini Brands Mini Mart. With shelves, freezers, cash registers and electronic features, the Mini Brands Mini Mart is the ultimate way to display your precious Mini Brands collection.

Mini Brands are also more than just a toy not only providing a sense of escapism, but helping kids to familiarise themselves with supermarket brands and increase their wordly intelligence.

ZURU is well known for its innovative toys and Mini Brands certainly do not disappoint!

  • I think marketing does the trick. It’s just the way these products are marketed and then the competition who has it.

  • Tik Tok, what’s that!

  • I’ll never understand why people have to be so negative, if you don’t like them, don’t buy them. I on the other hand, as well as my girls and Sister love these, they also have a toy brand one.

  • Haven’t been bothered to get into Tik Tok so haven’t heard of these but wouldn’t buy anyway.

  • My kids are madly in love with all mini brands so that’s got xmas sorted.
