Building sets
Bricks, beams and instruction booklets you can actually follow.
Wheels & rollers
Cars, cranes and anything that survives a hallway race.
Letters & numbers
First-word blocks and counting games that feel like toys.
Board games
Twenty minutes, four players, no reading the rules twice.
Why parents keep coming back
Twelve tests per set
Every set goes through the same twelve checks — drop, pull, bite, wash — before it gets a run number.
Missing piece? Free.
Tell us which brick went under the sofa and we post a replacement. No receipt, no questions, forever.
Paper, not plastic
Boxes and inserts are recycled board. The only plastic in a Gumball parcel is the tape, and we are working on that.

How a drop works
We make 500 of a new set, number every box, and stop. When they are gone the tooling goes back on the shelf until the next run.
Watch the countdown
The next drop lands on the clock at the top of The Drop page. Leave your email and we nudge you the morning of.
Doors at 9am Friday
The set goes live with the whole run in stock. No queue, no raffle — first box to the basket wins.
Numbered and gone
Every box is stamped with its number out of 500. When the counter hits zero the set retires until we run it again.
