Tsum Tsum Figures from Jakks Pacific

Jakks Pacific was at D23 Expo and had their booth space divided into various sections and these cute Tsum Tsum figures got our attention. We don't collect a lot of plush collectibles so these are right up our alley. Shown were 2 different types of packaging either small pack (3) or the large pack (9). The larger pack comes with a mystery Tsum Tsum that's hidden behind the question mark. To see more of Series 1 that were on display or to check out pics from D23 Expo go HERE.
