NYC Liberty vs. LA Palm: Scoring US-exclusive Jellycats from Italy

The Plushie FOMO: Why These Exclusives Are Trending

By mid-2026, the global obsession with Jellycat’s Amuseables has reached a fever pitch, particularly for the regional exclusives. While the trend exploded among Australian collectors who treat these plushies like rare art pieces, the ripple effect has hit Italy. The New York Liberty (the iconic Statue of Liberty reimagined with a smiley face) and the LA Palm (a breezy, West Coast vibe in plush form) are the current crown jewels.

The catch? They are strictly US-state exclusives. You won't find them in Milan or Rome boutiques. They don't ship directly to international retailers, which creates a high-value import market. For those tracking US trends and popular products, these cuddly characters are the top priority for 2026.

New York Liberty vs. Los Angeles Palm: A Cuteness Comparison

When deciding which one to import, it often comes down to your aesthetic preference. The New York Liberty Amuseable features a soft mint-green crown and a felt torch, representing the fast-paced energy of the Big Apple. In contrast, the LA Palm offers a relaxed, sunny disposition with its floppy fronds and sturdy trunk.

If you are a completionist, you probably want both, but shipping them together is the smarter move. Many collectors find that using a proxy shopping option like the BuyForMe service is the easiest way to snag both from different US retailers in a single go, especially if certain shops have strict billing address requirements.

Shipping Estimates for Italian Collectors

To help you plan your acquisition, here is the technical breakdown for shipping these specific items from the US to Italy.

Before you commit, it is wise to use a shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost based on the latest 2026 fuel surcharges. Remember, shipping one plushie might be expensive, but shipping three or four significantly lowers the cost per item.

The Logistics Hack: How to Buy from US Stores

Most US retailers, including FAO Schwarz or the official Jellycat US site, often restrict international shipping or charge exorbitant rates. The secret known to logistics experts is using a tax-free US address. By signing up with a freight forwarder like comGateway, you get an address in a state like Oregon where there is no sales tax. This saves you roughly 7-10% on the initial purchase price before the item even leaves the US.

Once your Liberty or Palm plushie arrives at your US suite, you can consolidate it with other top us deals you've found. If you run into issues with a US store not accepting your Italian credit card, the assisted purchase feature is a lifesaver. You can always check the FAQ if you need support with the package consolidation process.

Italy Import Notes and Customs Rules

When shipping to Italy in 2026, keep the "de minimis" threshold in mind. For goods valued under €150, you are generally exempt from customs duties, though IVA (VAT) will still apply. Because these Jellycats are collectibles, ensure your freight forwarder provides accurate declarations to avoid delays at the border. Shipping via express carriers usually ensures that the IVA is handled efficiently, getting your New York or LA treasures to your door in Italy without a headache.
