The 2026 Jellycat US State Series Hype

Collectors in Thailand are currently obsessed with the 2026 Jellycat US State Series, specifically the NYC Big Apple and the LA Palm Tree. These Amuseables are part of a regional exclusive drop that isn't officially sold in stores across Southeast Asia. In the local reseller market, these plushies are already appearing at double or even triple their original US retail price. Because they are limited to specific boutique stores in New York and California, many fans are looking for ways to shop US stores directly to save money.

The 2026 NYC Apple features a cute little stalk and a "Big Apple" souvenir tag, while the LA Palm Tree sports miniature sunglasses, making them high-priority items for serious collectors who track popular products and regional releases.

Where to buy the NYC Apple and LA Palm

Since these are regional exclusives, you typically won't find them on the global Jellycat site with direct shipping to Bangkok. Your best bet is checking US-based retailers like Nordstrom, FAO Schwarz, or specific high-end boutiques in Manhattan and Los Angeles. However, many of these stores do not offer an international shipping service that is affordable, or they may block non-US credit cards entirely. This is where a freight forwarder becomes a necessary tool for your collection.

Shipping Estimates for Thailand

Before you hit the checkout button, you need a clear idea of what it actually costs to move these plushies across the ocean. The truth about shipping to Thailand is that the weight of the item is rarely the problem; it is the size of the box that determines the price.

You can use the shipping calculator to get a more precise quote based on current international shipping rates for 2026.

The Volumetric Weight Warning

Plush toys like the Amuseables are notoriously light but take up a lot of space. Most carriers like DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping calculate costs based on "Volumetric Weight" rather than the actual weight on a scale. If your Jellycat is packed in an oversized box filled with air pillows, you might be charged for a 5 lb package even if the toy weighs less than 1 lb. To avoid this, use a package forwarding service that offers repacking or consolidation to minimize the box size.

Avoiding the Import Tax Surprise in Thailand

The reality of buying from the US is that Thai Customs will inspect your package. In 2026, the import tax threshold remains a critical factor. If your total CIF value (Cost of goods + Insurance + Freight) exceeds 1,500 THB, you are liable for customs duties and VAT. For toys and collectibles, this duty can be around 10-20%, plus the 7% VAT. If you ignore this, your package could be held at the customs office, requiring a trip to the airport or extra processing fees from the courier.

How to use a freight forwarder for US exclusives

If you want to shop like a local, you need a tax-free US address. Many US states charge an 8-10% sales tax at checkout, but using a comGateway address in a tax-free state like Oregon allows you to bypass that extra cost. This effectively covers a portion of your international shipping fees.

Simply sign up for a US address, use it at the checkout of US stores, and once your NYC Apple or LA Palm arrives at the warehouse, you can choose your preferred carrier for the final leg to Thailand. This method of proxy shopping is the most reliable way to ensure your 2026 exclusives arrive safely without the massive markup of local resellers. If you are worried about the process, remember that a dedicated freight forwarder provides tracking and insurance that standard postal services often lack, protecting your investment from being lost in transit.
