Gen Z consumers are investing in mini toys to decorate their personal items
Trend - Plush keychains and "blind box"-style collectibles are gaining traction among Gen Z consumers. Often attached to purses, backpacks, and other accessories, these toys infuse individuality into everyday items, allowing consumers to tap into their inner child through cartoon aesthetics and characters.
