Now Available in Canberra at VALORHYPE
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?
We all know the answer — and now, Canberra collectors can finally bring home that joy in the form of art toys. The Bikini Bottom Buddies series from Popmart is making waves, and it’s officially landed at VALORHYPE, your local hub for Popmart in Canberra.
From quirky poses to familiar faces, this is the series that fuses pure nostalgia with premium designer toy vibes.
🍍 Featured Figures to Look Out For
Unlike other Popmart collaborations that feature main characters, the Bikini Bottom Buddies series celebrates the quirky background fish — the unsung heroes of the SpongeBob SquarePants universe. These figures are rich in personality, humor, and subtle references to iconic underwater moments.
Here are the standout designs from the series:
-
Green Lounge Fish: Sitting calmly on a crate with a towel over his shoulder, this lime-green character gives off ultimate beach vacation vibes. He’s the embodiment of Bikini Bottom’s laid-back lifestyle.
-
Purple Mug Fish: Dressed in a purple tee and holding a coffee mug, this sleepy-eyed figure looks like he just clocked out from a long shift at the Krusty Krab. A perfect addition for anyone who relates to ‘Monday mood.’
-
The Hanging Duo: Two pastel-colored fish — one in light peach, the other in baby blue — hang upside down from strings, echoing the whimsical chaos of underwater life. Ideal for hanging decor or humorous shelf moments.
-
Red Shorts Streetwear Fish: With his bold red shorts, white tee, and confident stance, this blue-toned fish has a casual “cool guy” energy. He feels like the local influencer of the reef.
-
Office Fish with Folder: Holding a small bag or file, this beige and blue figure has a permanent grumpy face. You can almost hear him saying, “I hate Mondays.” He’s the office worker of Bikini Bottom — relatable and hilarious.
-
Orange Chill Fish: With a bright orange face and chill posture, this figure screams “weekend mode.” Dressed in a baby blue top, he perfectly balances color and character.
-
Secret Lying Fish: The ultra-rare variant appears to be a flat blue-green fish lying on the sand with camo-like prints — possibly referencing Plankton or another Easter egg from the show. This rare find adds major thrill to the blind box experience.
Each figure in this series brings Bikini Bottom's side characters to life in an unexpectedly stylish, collectible way. Whether you relate to the sleepy mug-holder or the stressed-out salary fish, there's a version of “you” in this set.
