You may think you don’t know what a Munny is, but you would have most certainly seen one. They are the [decorate-it-yourself vinyl toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsters-by-monsters-now-and-then) that allow the user to personalize their Munny with [markers, pens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pen-creator-studio) and even ketchup.

This is a brilliant custom collection of "Holiday Munnys" for brands large and small done as a collaboration between c13 and AMG. I really like them; for once these are “branded” objects that are done in a really subtle and stylish way. The [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/style-your-toe) and Veuve Clicquot ones are a perfect case in point. Good work!
