NBA TeenyMates
Standing about an inch tall, TeenyMates are among the most precious items a collector can get. These official pocket-sized figures feature all the sports and entertainment superstars spanning different sports such as the NBA, NHL, WWE, MLB, and NFL. Even with their small size, these TeenyMates have been a big part of the fun for children and collectors. To make it even better, there are TeenyMates blind packs, gift sets, and much more, which give you a wide range of options to choose from.
What Are NBA Teenymates?
Let’s talk about NBA TeenyMates. These are tiny basketball TeenyMates that feature all the thirty NBA teams and their players. Additionally, they include hard-to-find figures who have impacted the sport. These NBA TeenyMates are available in series, blind packs, locker room sets, etc.
Here, we will take a deeper dive into two of their most popular TeenyMates packs.
- Party Animal TeenyMates NBA Series 7 Pack
- Party Animal TeenyMates Lockers NBA Series 8 Figures Mystery Pack
1. Party Animal TeenyMates NBA Series 7 Pack
The all-new Party Animal TeenyMates NBA Series 7 Pack release has sent shockwaves worldwide, mainly for TeenyMates enthusiasts.
The TeenyMates collection is a blind pack that contains four blind packs. In total, the park includes 8 NBA figures and eight puzzle pieces.
One might wonder, what do you find in each of these blind packs? For starters, you will find two one-inch NBA TeenyMates Series 7 player figures. These figures are chosen and included randomly, so you don’t know exactly which player you will be getting. Randomization adds mystery to the fun, making each pack a joy to open.
One thing to note about this selection is that, since it is done randomly, it is not possible to order a specific player’s TeenyMate. Also, you can return the TeenyMates once you have unpacked them.
Inside the pack, you will also find two double-sided puzzle pieces. Every puzzle is made of 35 pieces and features a mini poster on one side and a basketball court on the other. You can use the puzzle for schools, party games, promotions, etc. To complete the puzzle, you have to join these pieces together to form the complete arrangement. From here, it is up to you to put the puzzle pieces together and achieve this final puzzle. After completing the puzzle, you can use it or frame it for future reference.
Lastly, you will find the collector’s checklist. This checklist comes in handy by acting as a record book. Here, you keep track of the TeenyMates you already own. Every time you add an NBA TeenyMate, you include it on your checklist.
After buying an NBA TeenyMates pack, you will use the collection checklist to figure out the players you have already unpacked. This checklist is more or less a record keeper; you can use it to figure out the players and items you are yet to collect to finish the whole set.
The checklist comes in handy, such that you can include them in the “I want” part so that you don’t forget to buy them in the future. Interesting, right?
Another question that shouldn’t be left unanswered. Why do we have the NBA TeenyMates series? As we all know, NBA players come and go. Some break into the team, others retire, others get traded, etc. Therefore, every series will feature players playing for each team at that specific moment.
However, after some time, the movement of players will affect the previous TeenyMates collection. Therefore, there is a need for an update now and then!
2. Party Animal TeenyMates Lockers NBA Series 8 Figures Mystery Pack
The newly released Party Animal TeenyMates Lockers NBA Series 8 Figures Mystery Pack features all the top players in the NBA league. They are also sold in the form of blind packs, which means you get random players’ lockers. Every TeenyMates locker blind pack contains:
- Three-player figures. Each of these 1-inch player figures has been randomly selected and included in the pack. However one of these figures can be seen in the packaging, but the other two are hidden. You won’t know what you have collected till you open it up.
- Three lockers. Each locker is meant for a player in the NBA with their sticker on it. The sticker contains details about the player: the number, name, and logo of the team they play for. A locker room bench.
- A water cooler. These lockers are designed in such a way that they can snap together. This trait makes it easy for you to stack them together for a unique display option. Also, each figure can be stored inside its own locker. The water cooler and bench make the toys more realistic and give the impression of a team. All these things make a fun collectible set for any NBA fan. Kids aged 4+ can use these fully licensed toys to play games.
On the other hand, adults can use these TeenyMates and lockers to display their teams.
