Iron Patriot Online and Another 2017 Preview

    Iron Patriot is now available on Hallmark.com (See Here).  Also Hallmark released another picture of a 2017 itty bitty, Ant-Man.
   Also I asked Hallmark about the 'second in series' stated on the tags of the newly released itty bittys (1960s Batman, Iron Patriot, and Clark) and this is what they told me. "Second in the series means that there has been an itty bitty of that character that was available previously. The second itty bitty will have different detailing reflected in the character."

Barbie online

Alright! First the itty bitty Barbie boxed set is now available online! See Here (Thank you C for letting me know!) Second looks like Australia is getting Frosty the Snowman as an individual (So jealous!). And Hallmark released a picture of next years itty bitty Ursula.

Event vs. Regular

   I thought it would be good to do a comparison of the Event Exclusives (and/or Limited Editions) to their Regular store counterparts. I do have some comparisons on the 'Itty Bitty Basics' page and notes to identify the different versions on the index pages. I just thought it would be fun to look the differences between them with a little more detail! Event Exclusives (or Limited Editions) will be on the left side and the Regular version will be on the right. (With the exception of Han who only has a Event and Limited versions)
  I am looking at the detail on the actual itty bittys. In all cases the tags between the two versions are different. Also the Event Exclusives have the round label (normally on the bottom of the itty bitty) stating the event and year they are from. I won't really be listing these in the differences in the post.

Sorry about the color differences in the picture, they really aren't that much different.

Limited Edition and Regular

Holiday Barbie         Event/Regular

There isn't really any difference between the two other than the color of the word 'Barbie' on the bottoms. See picture comparison on the 'Itty Bitty Basics' page.


 There are also Event Exclusives (like the Holiday Barbie) with no real differences between the Event and Regular version. These include the event Batman, Darth Vader, and Batman & Superman clippy. They don't vary from their store versions other than the tag and bottom labels.

November releases

   At this time I would normally post a list of what is coming for November, but sadly at this point it is all rumor. UPDATE: Three new itty bittys have been seen in stores. List below has been updated.
 
This month's released:
Batman
Clark Kent/Superman
Iron Patriot

Rumored:
Belle

   Also we haven't seen Starlite or Wonder Woman-Super Hero Girls who were rumored to be out at the end of the month. So if we don't see them it is possible we could also see them in November. I wish I had more solid news.


   Captain Phasma is now available in the online store! Link Here I also hear she is starting to be shipped and hitting some stores. So hopefully she will arrive at your local store soon (and mine!)!

Hawaii ornaments

     Saw two more itty bittys ornaments, Hula girl and Surfer boy. No word yet on when or where they will be available. Saw the auction on ebay and the seller's location is Hawaii (auction link here). Perhaps they are releasing them there first than online like they did with the actual itty bittys. We will have to wait and see.

I heard that there might also be a Salvador Perez ornament coming too!

New Pictures!

    Take a look at some of the new itty bittys. Sounds like they might be coming out soon! Moana and Maui are due out in December. Not sure on the others but it sounds like it cold be next month or December. I hope so! At this point we don't have anything set to release in November. I also hear that Australia might be getting new released closer to the time that the US is gets them.

Index pages are continually being updated and I added a US to UK comparison on the 'Bitty Basics' page.

Thanks you C for finding this picture of the Captain America itty bitty! I am thinking the movie version.

Alter Ego Superman

    Found this picture from Hallmark. Apparently he is a double-sided itty bitty called Alter Ego Superman. Clark Kent on one side and Superman on the other
