Filipinos are undeniably obsessed with collecting toys. This is evident from their bulk collections of items that range from the giant bobbleheads Funko Pops with oversized eyes to the fan-favorite Pokemon cards.
This is also why it didn’t come as a surprise when many Filipinos, especially Generation Zs and younger Millennials, couldn’t wait to get their hands on Sonny Angels when they were first released in the country.

Because of their cuteness and popularity, these toys that are also called “little boyfriends” get sold out almost instantly, thanks to their dedicated patrons.
While waiting for Sonny Angels to be restocked in your local toy shops, here are four other figurines you can add to your adorable toy collection.
