Gifted for review
If you love the game Among Us then you will love the latest toys, action figures, keyrings, blind bags and collectibles
We started playing Among Us during lockdown, we were introduced to it by Vicky from Miss Tilly and Me and we used to join her and her family on the spaceship. In fact Monsieur Incidental and I would play long past our bedtime – it is a bit addictive!
We were sent some of the new Among Us Series 2 merchandise to review which our kids were particularly excited about…
Among Us Series 2 Action Figure
The Among Us action figure comes with removable hands (yes, hands – I know, right?!) a hat and accessory. Our red character came with a blue cap, red hands and a knife, or maybe machete, either way it would definitely do the job for an Imposter!
The figure pulls in half to reveal the famous Among Us bone – both boys had great fun playing with the action figure. At 6, Little L is too young to play the actual game but he knows all about it.
Among Us Series 2 Action Figure RRP £24 available from Smyths, HMV, The Works, WHSmith, Game, Littlewoods & Amazon
Among Us Plush Buddy
The Among Us Push Buddy is 20cm tall and the perfect size for an Among Us fan to pop in their backpack. It is super soft and squidgy and pretty cute. There are several different Among Us Plush Buddy characters to collect. These would make a great back to school gift or (dare I mention the C word) stocking filler!
Among Us Series 2 Plush Buddy RRP £11 Available from Smyths, HMV, The Works, WHSmith, Game, Littlewoods & Amazon
Among Us Series 2 figural Keychain in blind bag
My kids bloomin’ love a blindbag, better still they love a keyring so these Among Us Series 2 keychains hit the spot. Kids love revealing the surprise Among Us character inside and they never seem to be disappointed by getting a duplicate, in fact it means they can swap them with friends!
The keyrings easily attach to a school bag or rucksack or, if you are old enough, your own set of keys! Big L is starting secondary school so he can use it for his locker key and lunch fob! We were sent one character so I will have to buy more as the boys want one each, and I am quite partial to a keyring myself!
There are 16 Among Us keychains to collect, including an Imposter!
RRP £3.00 (fab pocket money price if you ask me!) available from Smyths, HMV, The Works, WHSmith, Game, Littlewoods
Among Us Series 2 Crewmate Figures Blindbag
Another blind bag offering are the Among Us Crewmate Figures. There are 16 different crewmates to collect in various colours, hats etc. There are even 4 rare Among Us Crewmate Figues to collect. We revealed the white character in a chef’s hat and black character in a top hat – it kind of reminds me of Slash actually!
These are another good pocket money toy and any duplicates can be swapped with friends.
RRP £3.00 available from Smyths, HMV, The Works, WHSmith, Game, Littlewoods
What did we think of the Among Us Series 2 toys and collectibles?
Any Among Us fans will love them, naturally. Our (my) personal favourite was the plush and keyring. From a kids point of view the blind bags went down really well, they love the excitement of revealing which Among Us character they would get.
From a value for money point of view they are certainly on a par with other collectibles. The great thing is they are available from a variety of toy shops so accessible to everyone.
