Pictures of a mini Zazu Tsum Tsum, from The Lion King, have surfaced. The pictures are an indication that The Lion King Tsum Tsum collection may release soon, possibly by the end of the year or beginning of the next.
Hong Kong Tsum Tsum Craze
I recently took a trip to Hong Kong. Initially I would get all excited at seeing anything Tsum Tsum related, until about the third day when I realized how common Tsum Tsum merchandises were and just how popular Tsum Tsum is in Hong Kong. Tsum Tsums are almost everywhere in Hong Kong, from random street markets, malls, and even on the t-shirts of the locals. I documented some of the Tsum Tsum merchandises I encountered on my trip to Hong Kong.

Tsum Tsum Pillows
Chocoolate x Tsum Tsum
Chocoolate, a Hong Kong fashion brand, collaborated with Disney earlier this year to release some Tsum Tsum apparel. These are the few Tsum Tsum clothing leftover at the Chocoolate store.
Tomica x Tsum Tsum
Mini Tsum Tsum Vinyl Figures
These micro Tsum Tsum vinyl figures were available in a box set or a blind box. The blind box included one mystery expression Tsum Tsum figure.
Maxim’s x Tsum Tsum Desserts
In celebration of Mid Autumn Festival, Disney teamed up with Hong Kong’s largest food corporation, Maxim’s, to release some limited edition Tsum Tsum edibles including, cake, mousse, and mooncakes. The mooncakes sold out instantly, however I was able to snap some pictures of the various cakes and mousse served in a collectible Tsum Tsum cup.
Hong Kong Disney Store (at the Airport)
There are three Disney Stores in the Airport. Two of them are in unrestricted areas and closes 9PM. I was not able to check out those stores because I had a late arriving and departing flight. Fortunately, there is another Disney Store in the departure terminal that opens until 11PM.
The Hong Kong Disney Store had so many Tsum Tsums in stock! They also sold many different Tsum Tsum merchandises.
I went a little overboard and bought a ton of gifts for for friends, family, and myself.
Fake Tsum Tsums
There were many unlicensed shops that sold Tsum Tsum plushes and merchandises. There were even fake Minions “Tsum Tsum” plushes.

Maxim’s x Tsum Tsum Desserts
Disney has teamed up with Hong Kong’s largest food and beverage corporation to release some Tsum Tsum desserts for a limited time. The desserts include mousse, cakes, and mooncakes.
The flavored mousse includes a collectible, stackable Tsum Tsum cup. There are nine mousse dessert cups, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Winnie, Tigger, Buzz, Alien, Lotso, and Stitch. Each character is a different flavor (Buzz is chocolate, Lotso is strawberry).
There are three different Tsum Tsum cakes available, Lotso (strawberry mousse cake), Alien (mango mousse cake), and a 1.5lb strawberry Tsum Tsum cake.
In celebration of Mid Autumn Festival, Maxim’s (which is famous for their mooncakes) created two different Tsum Tsum themed boxes of mooncakes (egg custard and snowy). The egg custard is traditional mooncake with double yolk and the snowy mooncake includes four different flavors, mango, strawberry crunch, angel crunch (white chocolate), and double blueberry.
Maxim’s is also selling a Tsum Tsum tote bag for HK$58 with any Tsum Tsum dessert purchase.
Available at Maxim’s Cake Shop in Hong Kong.
My Mystery Tsum Tsums from DMR
