TUBBZ – Pop Culture Characters as Collectible Rubber Ducks
There's something deeply satisfying about a collectible that refuses to take itself too seriously while still delivering on quality. TUBBZ occupy that precise sweet spot: officially licensed, meticulously designed rubber ducks dressed as characters from the franchises you actually care about. They're the kind of thing you buy as a joke and then find yourself hunting down the entire series.
What defines TUBBZ?
TUBBZ are collectible vinyl rubber duck figures produced under official licensing agreements with major entertainment franchises. Each duck is designed to resemble a specific character, complete with costume details, accessories, and recognisable features adapted to the duck format. The figures are numbered and packaged individually, positioning them as display collectibles rather than bath toys — though they are technically waterproof. The TUBBZ range covers properties from video games, films, television series, and other pop culture sources, with new character releases expanding the collection regularly.
Frequently asked questions

They make surprisingly effective gifts, too: officially licensed, visually distinctive, and almost impossible to already own.
