The Weirdest Toy-Candy Combo I've Seen to Date
Zuru, the toy dinosaur people, have this new thing called "Gumi Yum Surprise", clearly trying to bite Kinder Joy's style and at more or less the same price point. And look, the plastic egg it comes in is all gummy colors!
Except that's not the plastic egg.
That's the actual gummy. The candy is in strips around the egg that you peel off and eat before opening. This is a neat idea, but also makes holding onto the package until you're done essential, as it's an egg, you can't stand it up in a way that the gummy surface won't hit the table or whatever you set it on.
Once you strip away the festive gummy layers (which were decent, kinda like slightly sweeter and firmer Jello Jigglers) you pop open the egg and there's a kit toy inside.
In my case, a baby T-rex.
Not bad, Zuru.

Long Post full of Affiliate Links
So I bought 3x of the new MGA Miniverse UV resin Diner food kits and reviewed them.
https://amzn.to/3Goo2PC
These are the larger kits.
After that I ordered 3x of the smaller Cafe sets.
https://amzn.to/3Goo2PC
And will review them, too, though as a toy collector, not as an adult worried about marketing UV resin to kids.
When the cafe sets are in stock, they cost $6.97 vs the Diner sets at $9.97. They’re also smaller.
There is no table. Some of them come with a little cake stand, though.
I got these three sets and I have to admit, I’m kind of disappointed...
The quality of the pieces is the same, but there’s just not much to do with these. The Diner sets have you arranging items in a dish or on a plate, but the Cafe ones are more like, put the thing, put the resin, done.
At least the three that I got are. The ones with donuts might be more entertaining.
The enormous mason jar coffee made me laugh because it’s not in scale for Barbies like the other food items, but then I looked over at my water jug and.....
Yeah, ok.
I was actually rather put out opening these because there are three layers of plastic outside the shell, the plastic shell, lots of plastic bags inside, and in the cafe latte one there is a tiny plastic straw in a tiny plastic straw wrapper.
There are tweezers/tongs but you don’t need them for these sets. These three are all dump and go.
I chose not to do the cafe latte nor the tropical fruit salad because the cafe latte kit was too boring and I’d rather keep the fruits in the cute little boxes.
That kit could easily be made and remade as long as you don’t add the resin.
Inside the cereal box is a little plastic bag of plastic beads. I did decide to put the cereal together to test whether the resin set properly.
It did. It’s not opaque like milk. I kind of wish I hadn’t bothered, because it looks...
Unpleasant.
But this did get me thinking.
Are these kits worth it to me?
It cost me $53.80 for this:
The cafe sets certainly I feel like weren’t worth the $7. Part of the pull of these is supposed to be an experience in addition to getting a cute toy in the end, but the cafe sets are so simple that there was no experience.
Being someone that’s made a bunch of little resin trinkets over the years, I could spend the same $54 and get enough comparable materials to make these kits many times over with less waste because every item wouldn’t come in it’s own little plastic bag.
And personally, I don’t collect mini food. I collect mini toys.
Compare the price of one of these kits (we’ll round up so $10 and $7) to the price of 5 Surprise Toy Mini Brands, and... Well.
Miniverse for $10 will get you one cute food item that you have to assemble and a bunch of small packaging associated with it plus 5 or so big pieces of paper all folded up, a table, a display case, a bunch of plastic bags, and three layers of outer plastic.
If you’re not keeping all of the empty containers, the bread bag, the pie crust box, the bottles of resin, all the duplicate tongs, etc, you’re throwing away the majority of the kit in the end.
Mini Brands for $7 will give you 5 preassembled minis (sometimes four and one piece of useless crap like a too-small shopping cart, also too small shelving unit, or paper bags) with 2 layers of outer plastic, one collector’s guide, 5 small sheets of plastic, two weird rubbery end caps, and a useless set of plastic wedges.
https://amzn.to/3WU8mdR
https://amzn.to/3IxF3JH
All together this was $27.54 for 15 items and a collector’s case.
BOTH brands are blind packed.
tl:dr is that I won’t personally be buying any more Miniverse food kits, but I am excited for Toy Mini Brands Series 3.

Zuru Toy Mini Brand x Tamagotchi Original Miniatures
These have actually been available for a few years now, but we haven’t wrote about them! Mini Brands are the real brands that of things you know and love in your hand. There are over 90 miniatures of your favorite brands to collect. In these capsules that you can find at toy stores and other department stores, you’ll receive 5 mystery miniatures in every capsule.
image source: Fuzzy N Chic Liew
There are two versions of miniature Tamagotchi’s, one that was released a few years back, and the more recent one with updated packaging. It looks like they’ll need to update the miniatures again with the rebrand! There are even different Tamagotchi Original shell designs too, which make them super collectable!
Have you gotten your hands on these Tamagotchi miniatures?

Just finished setting up the toy store! The reindeer family will take care of it, seems fitting XD
I've also stocked up the shelves with the toys, some barbie extra pets (they can be plushies or something) and added some extra mini brand stuff i already had. This came with some extra pieces too, so ill be keeping those for the future.

Sibling saw mini toy brands at work and thought to pick one up for me because he knows I like them. But the weird thing is that it’s series 2, but not the same series 2 I already have?? This one has frozen moments, no rose golds, and MANY different pieces I haven’t seen in any other set. What is this??? It’s super cool don’t get me wrong but so weird
