When did Squishmallows get created?
Squishmallows were first launched in 2017 by the California-based company KellyToy Worldwide Inc.
What is the first Squishmallow?
The first Squishmallow ever created was Cameron the Calico Cat. He was one of eight released in 2017. He serves as the main mascot of the Squishmallows brand.
The original squad included eight characters, including Cam the Cat, Wendy the Frog, Fifi the Fox, Hans the Hedgehog, Piper, and Puff the Penguins, as well as Hoot and Holly the Owls.
To celebrate Squishmallows’ 5-Year Anniversary, all of them, except for Piper, were reintroduced in a Walgreens Exclusive squad, showcasing a new tie-dye pattern.
What are the rarest Squishmallows?
KellyToys has a Rarity Scale for Squishmallows, which is also displayed on their bio tags. If you’re in search of rare Squishmallows, we’ve got you covered!
One of the scarcest Squishmallows in both 2020 and 2021 was Archie, the light pink axolotl. While Treyton, the yellow axolotl, took the crown in 2022. Halloween Squishmallows belong to the rarest subcategory, featuring charming designs such as pumpkins, ghosts, and spiders. Jack the Black Cat Squishmallow holds the title of being the rarest Squishmallow ever produced, with only 500 made.
How many Squishmallows are there?
There are over 1,000 different squishmallows. KellyToy has an online Squishmallow Collector’s Guide for you to keep track of how many Squishmallows you have. Plus, you can even sort this collector’s guide by rarity, color, and size.
