Wow! Stuff expands Puppetronics category with Palm Puppetronics

he new range of Palm Puppetronics features a collection of palm-sized characters designed for deeper character assortments and enhanced collectability.

WOW! Stuff has announced the launch of Palm Puppetronics, an all-new, palm-sized, entry price point extension of the Puppetronics category. Debuting in spring 2026, Palm Puppetronics introduces an accessible, collectible and character-rich range designed to broaden the appeal of the fast-growing Puppetronics brand which has seen Wow! Stuff’s business double across all major markets.

Building on the game-changing success of the original Puppetronics line, born from the double TOTY-winning (Toy Of The Year) Disney Stitch Puppetronic by RealFX and now the Toothless Puppetronic by RealFX TOTY nominee, the new Palm Puppetronics range showcases Wow! Stuff’s signature blend of inventive, leading-edge electronics, hand-controlled puppetry and imaginative storytelling, now in a compact scale that sits in the palm of the hand.

“Palm Puppetronics brings mass market collectability through volume price points which will expand the category significantly,” said Wow! Stuff’s managing director, Dawn Lavalette.

Product Development director, Kenny McAndrew, added: “It was important not to compromise on innovation, even at this price point. We’ve built in occasional mystery features and a hilarious ‘pairing’ system that allows the pets to talk to another character of the same brand. We want more fans to join the Puppetronics fandom, and this tech and price point provides a tailor-made character solution platform for licensors of leading entertainment brand franchises.”

The new range of Palm Puppetronics features a collection of palm-sized, “in-universe” characters from cult and fan-favourite franchises, created through collaborations with global entertainment powerhouses including Disney, Universal and Warner Bros. Designed for deeper character assortments and enhanced collectability, the range brings beloved characters and high-impact storytelling to life through hand-controlled actions, touch sensors and a pairing system so they can communicate with a fellow character from the same franchise brand.

Palm Puppetronics will launch globally from spring 2026, with a roll out of further characters coming to market in the autumn.
