Mattel shrinks the Scoobies down for a BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER Polly Pocket compact

You can soon own your own pocket-sized Hellmouth, thanks to Mattel Creations. Via Nerdist, the toy giant unveiled a Buffy the Vampire Slayer Polly Pocket compact, mashing up two of the '90s and early '00s most enduring pieces of pop culture into one collectible.

The set includes micro figures of Buffy, Willow, and Angel, plus a mini stake and a tiny Vampyr book for the figures to hold. The compact itself opens into two scenes ripped straight from Sunnydale: the top half recreates Sunnydale High (library and classroom included), where the Scoobies plotted their demon-fighting strategy under Giles's watch. The bottom half is Restfield Cemetery, complete with headstones for Tara and Joyce Summers — and one for Buffy herself, whose grave opens so fans can reenact her Season Six resurrection.

The compact's exterior leans into the show's gothic aesthetic, with a character lineup and Sunnydale iconography wrapped around a window-box package. Spike shows up in the packaging art, though notably without a figure of his own, a gap fans will likely be hoping Mattel fills in a follow-up release.

The Buffy Polly Pocket compact launches on Mattel Creations on September 4 at 9:00 am PT, priced at $33.

It arrives alongside another Buffy collectible: a Monster High Skullector two-pack featuring Buffy and Angel in '90s-inspired faux-leather looks, armed with a stake, crossbow accessories, a Slayer handbook purse, and a sword necklace, priced at $98. Both sets go up for sale the same day.
