Smiski Hippers: Inspired by Sonny Angel

The concept of Hippers was born from the creators of both Smiski & Sonny Angel, Dreams Inc., and now it's finally Smiskis turn for a Hipper makeover!

For fans of both, this crossover is the perfect match (and perfect for mixing and matching!). Smiski figures bring the same positive energy as their Sonny Angel Hipper cousins - plus their signature glow! Though you may need to upgrade your phone to fit them all!

How to Use and Restyle Your Smiski Hippers

If you need to reposition your Hipper, carefully peel it off (tweezers can help), dab a little water on the adhesive, and let it dry for 5 minutes. Once you’ve chosen a new spot, it’s ready to go! It’s a simple way to switch things up and keep your space looking fresh. If the adhesive ever loses its stickiness, Blu-Tack or even a bit of superglue can do the trick (though that’s more permanent).
