Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket Set Brings Sunnydale Back!
Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket is giving fans an unexpected new way to revisit the iconic supernatural series.
Full Story Breakdown
Mattel has revealed a new collectible inspired by the classic show, bringing some of its most recognizable characters and locations into a much smaller format. The announcement has also arrived alongside another Buffy-themed collaboration that gives fans an entirely different way to celebrate the series.
A New Buffy Collectible Is Coming
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket set transforms Sunnydale into a miniature collectible experience. The compact includes micro figures of Buffy Summers, Willow Rosenberg, and Xander Harris, representing three members of the show’s core Scoobies group. It also recreates several recognizable locations from the series, giving fans a miniature version of Buffy’s world.
Sunnydale Comes to Polly Pocket
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket compact includes scenes inspired by Sunnydale High and Restfield Cemetery. The cemetery is particularly notable because it also features Buffy’s grave from the series.
Mattel’s product listing describes the compact as follows:
“Place micro figures of the core Scoobies group, Buffy, Willow, and Xander, into eerie scenes from Sunnydale High, as well as Restfield Cemetery, site of many of Buffy’s most epic showdowns,”
The set also comes with several accessories inspired by the show.
Buffy Gets Her Slayer Gear
The miniature collection includes a stake and a Vampyr book, giving Buffy the tools she needs to take on Sunnydale’s supernatural threats.
Mattel’s product description adds:
“Stake in hand and Vampyr book at the ready, Buffy Summers is ready to seize the moment and start slaying!”
The combination of recognizable locations, characters, and accessories makes the compact a nostalgic tribute to the original series.
Another Buffy Collectible Is Coming
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket release isn’t the only new Buffy collectible Mattel has announced. The company is also launching a Monster High Skullector two-pack featuring Buffy and Angel. The dolls will reportedly cost $98 and feature outfits inspired by the show’s ’90s aesthetic.
Both characters wear faux-leather outfits and come with several accessories.
Buffy and Angel Join Monster High
The Monster High figures feature a range of Buffy-inspired accessories, including:
- A stake
- Crossbow
- Slayer handbook purse
- Sword necklace
The collaboration has already attracted significant attention online.
Monster High’s Instagram announcement reportedly received more than 123,000 likes within a few hours, highlighting the continued popularity of the franchise.
Two Very Different Buffy Collectibles
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket compact and Monster High Skullector figures offer very different takes on the franchise. The Polly Pocket set focuses on nostalgia and miniature versions of locations from the original show.
Meanwhile, the Monster High collection gives Buffy and Angel a more stylized fashion-oriented makeover. Together, the two releases offer fans different ways to celebrate the supernatural drama.

Both the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket set and the Monster High Skullector two-pack will go on sale through the Mattel Shop on September 4 at 9 AM PT. The Polly Pocket set will cost $33, while the Buffy and Angel Monster High two-pack will be priced at $98.
