The toy
What is a Bouncing Banunu?
A Banunu is a super-soft, slow-rise squishy banana, about 15 cm long, sealed inside a blind box. Each one sits in a gold foil bag inside a printed card box. Pull both sides of the bag apart and your Banunu bounces out. 🍌
What are the 7 colours?
Yellow Sunshine and Lime Green (Common), Bubblegum and Cherry Red (Uncommon), Galactic (Rare), Pearl (Super Rare) and Golden Sparkle (Secret). Every Banunu has the same kawaii face. Only the colour changes, and the three rarest sparkle with real glitter. ✨
What does slow-rise mean?
Squeeze a Banunu flat, let go, and it slowly rises back to its banana shape. That gentle bounce-back is what makes a slow-rise squishy so satisfying to squeeze again and again.
How big is a Banunu?
About 15 cm from top to bottom. It fits in one hand, so it works as a desk toy, a bag buddy or a shelf collectible.
What is it made of, and is it safe?
A soft TPR (thermoplastic rubber) shell with a gel filling. Banunus are made for ages 3+ and carry a small-parts warning, so keep them away from children under 3 and pets. Please don’t cut, bite or eat it. It’s a squishy, not a snack.
How do I clean my Banunu?
Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Don’t cut or puncture it.
The blind box
Can I pick my colour?
No. Every box is sealed, so you find out which of the 7 colours you got when you peel it. That surprise is the whole point of a blind box.
How rare are the rare ones?
The rarity ladder is Common → Uncommon → Rare → Super Rare → Secret. The glitter colours turn up far less often than the Commons, and Golden Sparkle is the one everyone hunts for. We keep the exact odds under wraps to protect the surprise.
Which pack should I get?
Single (1 box) to start the chase. The Bunch (3 boxes, save 15%) to keep one and gift two. The Tray (6 boxes, save 20%) is our most popular. The Case (12 boxes, save 25%) for serious collectors. The Frenzy (72 boxes, save 40%) for the full hunt. Bigger packs mean more peels and a lower price per box. Free shipping on The Tray and up.
Is a Banunu a good gift?
Yes. A sealed blind box is a gift with a surprise built in, and the reveal is half the fun. Banunus suit anyone aged 3+, from kids to collectors to the person who has everything. The Bunch is made for gifting: keep one, gift two. 🎁
