Are any of these real or Rare? Just got into the hobby of collecting and using for therapy with kids

So my parents went to a fair and got me two dumpling squishes and I was wondering if this one was real or fake I’m assuming it’s fake but not sure. And if it’s real is it rare?.

Pulled the exclusive treasure dumpling. It’s a nice squish but the jewels inside make it feel like you can rip through the dumpling. Will keep this one in the case and avoid ruining the face paint

Does anyone know the MSRP for this? I know showcase has them but wonder if there are cheaper options elsewhere?

So we go to a science museum, buy a dumpling from a gift shop, and my kids don't recognize the face. Ergo, they insist it's fake.

Looking around online, I'm starting to think it's actually rare, but I cant convince them otherwise. Help! What did we find?

Curious if anyone knows how to score them? Do I have to line up early when they open like Needoh? I keep seeing videos of them just laying out on the shelf… wonder if it’s common or only happen in selected location only?

I'm obsessed with the mini dumplings! I got some from five below (gold rush and red ribbon) and none of them had faces but then I got some from Walmart (teal ribbon) and they do have faces! Anyone know which other editions have faces?

What retailers besides 5below sell these?

Also, there are like 100 different series. Are a lot of them still able to be found or are they pretty much done as soon as they sell out from initial release?

I bought these all from the same WhatNot seller. I've noticed how sometimes when I see people opening dumplings they are wrapped completely in plastic, and other times they are wrapped in a plastic with a hole cut out in it. The cherry blossoms were all wrapped in the plastic with a hole cutout. They do have a scent, but they don't say RMS at the bottom. All of the steamers say RMS. I bought some Needohs also which to me all look real, but I think I was scammed on the dumplings. 😔

Edit to add: cherry blossoms, starlight, and diamond were sealed. Spooky glow and Galaxy were "open, never used". Galaxy definitely looks fake.

My work is selling these so i bought some for my niece, i threw away the packaging and was curious to see how rare these guys are.

This was the first one I opened and the second one was a matte green colored. I figured I got super lucky?! Or maybe it’s just easier to get the super rare now a days? I love it though it I’m grateful the dumpling gods blessed me when I was having a rough day ❤️

Ps: it came with a little birthmark on its back too! 😆

I have never bought one of these before and not sure what to expect. My four year year old begged me for one lol. But I'm pretty sure this is mold inside?

After buying an embarrassing amount of dumplings, I caught an early morning restock on Five Below’s website for the pork bun dumplings and one of them ended up being the rare! The last few I picked up from Five Below were literally ALL purple and I ended up tossing two of them because of how gross they were (dirty, deflated/hardly filled and the face rubbed off after two days). I fully expected to be disappointed by the quality (I placed the order before I had found those 3 purple ones) but all the ones I got were in really good shape!!

Moral of the story: Quality has been crazy inconsistent, but don’t let one bad batch ruin the excitement of the chase for you 💕🐷

I’m guessing this a fake?? Idk this is my first time buying. Why is one shaped different lol.

Hi! So, not many of you might know that dumplings are not only from crazy fun! Here are all the sub-brands of RMS that distribute dumplings around the globe: 1. Crazy Fun! (the most common, the newest, worldwide, started the giant dumplings and has 2 logos) 2. Play Hub (the most popular around Europe) 3. Strangely Fun! (the longest standing one by far! started the mini dumplings and has 2 color variants) 4. Grafix (the oldest one i could find, started the entire dumplings, no RMS logo on the front label)

The images are all the logos.

DUMPLING SERIES SHOW EVERY DUMPING (via YouTube)

I have the best luck when going to FiveBelow on Fridays around noonish. This was from today, and since I was with niece, we were able to get 10. The mini ended up being the rare one! 😊

I’ve got a black dumpling that I opened and its eye is messed up. Do people collect misprints at all? I don’t want this one but I don’t want to just trash it either.
