Fueled by the collectible plush craze, people of all ages are eagerly buying into blind boxes, hoping to score favorite designs and rare plushies, and Starbucks outlets in Malaysia are getting in on the action with 'Frappuccino Siplings.' This new blind box series takes after fan-favorite blended drinks, and serves up the chance for collectors to acquire colorful, personality-packed characters like the super-special Birthday Confetti Ube Frappuccino or the Matcha Cream Frappuccino. These cup-shaped characters complete with fluffy tops and straws are made sit, which makes them ideal for displaying on shelves, desks and other areas of the home or office.
Each Frappuccino Siplngs Plush purchase grants buyers a free Grande-sized Frappuccino, making the experience of collecting all the unique characters even more rewarding.
