Mattel’s New Polly Pocket ‘Stranger Things’ Set Revealed: Hawkins and The Upside Down in Miniature
The highly anticipated fifth and final season of “Stranger Things” has seen delays due to the actor and writer strikes last year, but production has resumed this year. As fans eagerly await the new season, merchandise related to the popular Netflix series continues to hit the shelves. Among the latest offerings is a unique Polly Pocket-themed set from Mattel.
New Polly Pocket ‘Stranger Things’ Set
Mattel’s new release, the “Collector Stranger Things Compact” set, combines the nostalgic charm of Polly Pocket with the eerie world of Hawkins, Indiana. The set features:
- Hawkins Middle School A.V. Club Walkie-Talkie Exterior: Opens to reveal the Hawkins Middle School and Castle Byers.
- Upside Down: A detailed representation of the sinister alternate dimension.
- Micro Figures: Includes characters like Mike, Dustin, Will, Lucas, Eleven, and the Demogorgon.
- Accessories: Comes with four bikes, walkie-talkies, a blond wig, and waffles for Eleven.
This set is designed to reflect the first season of the series and is priced at $50. It marks a return to the classic Polly Pocket style, moving away from the more compact designs used in recent years.
What to Expect from ‘Stranger Things’ Season 5
Details about the final season are scarce, but the last episode of Season 4 left Hawkins in a precarious state. With the rifts between the real world and The Upside Down still open, Hawkins faces new threats, likely from the vengeful Vecna. The final season is expected to continue the intense and thrilling storylines that have captivated audiences.
Release Date and Availability
While a specific release date for Season 5 has not been confirmed, a 2025 debut is anticipated. Fans can pre-order the Polly Pocket ‘Stranger Things’ set from Mattel Creations’ website, with shipping scheduled on or before September 27. In the meantime, catch up on the first four seasons of “Stranger Things” available now on Netflix.
