Sonny Angel is a line of cherub figurines created by Japanese toy manufacturer Toru Soeya, the CEO of the Japanese company, Dreams Inc. The name is derived from Soeya's nickname, 'Sonny.' Sonny Angels are sold in blind boxes, with figures featuring different headgear and occasionally different outfits in various collections. The slogan of Sonny Angel is, "He may bring you happiness."

Sonny Angels are often purchased as collectibles. Some Sonny Angels are resold for far more than their original retail value and are often exchanged or resold at trading events and online resale platforms.

Sonny Angel was launched on May 15, 2004. The figurine started as an 18-centimeter (7-inch) doll and was inspired by the character Kewpie. Sonny was later transformed into a 7-centimeter (3-inch) minifigure and is now sold in over 33 countries.[1]

The Sonny Angel figurines are sold as blind boxes, a category of collectible product that makes the contents of the package a mystery until it is opened.[1] The blind box industry originated in the early 20th century in Japanese department stores with collectible cards. With a concurrent rise in the popularity of fashion toys, the industry attracted further investment and gained attention from both merchants and investors. Early versions of the blind box concept were seen in Gashapon toys, where small blind-box capsule toys were dispensed through vending machines.[2]

Sonny Angel figurines grew in popularity in TikTok where the hashtag "#sonnyangel" gathered over 95 million views as of April 2023.[3] In these short TikTok videos, people would create videos that showed unboxings, fan art, purchase hauls, and meetups with other Sonny Angel fans. The viral nature of the figurine, in addition to the publicized scarcity of certain variants has increased consumer demand.[4]

The New York Times covered a Sonny Angel figurines event on April 6, 2023, where 150 people met in Washington Square Park to buy, sell, and trade the dolls with other enthusiasts.[3]

Sonny Angels was featured on a Saturday Night Live sketch on May 4, 2024, where Marcello Hernández, Dua Lipa and Bowen Yang performed a sketch about the craze surrounding the figurines.[4] In the sketch, Yang played a Sonny Angel fighting Hernández's character to win the romantic attention of Lipa, a Sonny Angel collector.

In June 2022, Sonny Angel partnered with London-based textile artist Donna Wilson to create the "Creature Series." This collaboration introduced 12 mini figurines and one secret figurine which were each wrapped in cottage-shaped blind boxes.[5]

In July 2022, Sonny Angel collaborated with KEMElife, an art toy brand, to develop the "Everything Have Souls" series, featuring a rabbit and a tiger, which symbolizes innocence and bravery, respectively, in Chinese folklore.[6]

In July 2024, Sonny Angel collaborated with Casetify, an accessories brand, to offer phone cases and accessories, inspired by the Sonny Angel Harvest Series, with fruit and vegetable motifs.[7] The collection was released on July 19, 2024, and included items such as the Sonny Angel x CASETiFY Heart Metal Phone Strap and a limited-edition blind box containing a Harvest Heart Series Case and matching Sonny Angel Hipper.[8]

Sonny Angel figurines are typically priced between $10 and $12 depending on the series and retailer.[4] Limited-edition releases have created a resale market where certain figurines can command prices significantly above retail, driven by collector demand and scarcity.[9] On online platforms such as eBay and Depop, rare figurines are often resold at higher prices, with some reaching up to ten times the original cost. For example, "secret" figurines can got up to $250 on eBay.[10]

Trading among collectors through events that are organized by Sonny Angel consumers is common.[3] Collectors often seek specific figures to finish a series or acquire rare editions.[10] Some Sonny Angel enthusiasts are sellers and can sell anywhere between 500 and 1,000 Sonny Angels per week.[10]

These figurines overnight blowup has caused their sales to increase and bring in a revenue of over 5 million dollars for the brand. [11]
