Na! Na! Na! Surprise is a new brand of collectible toys from MGA, which is known for its L.O.L Surprise! dolls and creating fun unboxing experiences for kids. The new toys require kids to pop multiple balloons to discover collectible soft fashion dolls and matching clip-on pom-pom accessories.
The new dolls include characters like Sarah Snuggles, Roxie Foxy and Britney Sparkles, each of which also comes with an outfit in shoes that can be discovered in another balloon that can be burst. Notably, the Na! Na! Na! Surprise dolls set themselves apart as the first-ever soft, articulated fashion dolls.
For the unboxing experience, the confetti balloons can be inflated with an included paper straw and popped to reveal the surprises inside.
