The First 'KPop Demon Hunters' Dolls Are Here—But There's a Huge Catch
Mattel has revealed detailed images of the KPop Demon Hunters dolls, with pre-orders opening through Mattel Creations on November 12. However, fans will have to wait until fall 2026 for delivery.
The dolls are expected to arrive “by October 2026,” meaning that if you plan to buy them as holiday gifts, you'll need to prepare an IOU for Christmas stockings.
Set and Pricing
The initial Mattel release will only be available as a full set. Buyers cannot purchase individual Huntr/x members; instead, the set includes Rumi, Mira, and Zoey. This three-pack is priced at $150.
Design and Quality
The detailed outfits, called "What It Sounds Like," perfectly replicate those from the film. Rumi’s demon marks stand out visibly on her design, adding authenticity. However, the dolls have a delicate, high-end look typical of Mattel Creations, which justifies their premium cost.
Future Releases
- More toy drops are planned for 2026, including more affordable options.
- Fans can look forward to Huntr/x dolls in "How It’s Done" outfits and versions that sing “Golden.”
“If you snag a pre-order with holiday gift-giving in mind, you’ll have to print out an IOU and stick it in a Christmas stocking, because the dolls are estimated to arrive ‘by October 2026,’ according to Mattel.”
“The ‘What It Sounds Like’ outfits look just like in the film, and it’s so cool to see Rumi’s demon marks prominently displayed across her design.”
Overall, the KPop Demon Hunters dolls offer premium craftsmanship but come with a substantial wait and price, prompting anticipation for future, more accessible releases.
