If you have been on TikTok lately, you have probably seen the 'bag charm' aesthetic taking over. The clear winner for 2026 is the Pop Mart 'Have a Good Run' Plush Pendant (Year of the Horse Edition). This specific release is a US exclusive, making it incredibly hard to find at a fair price in Bangkok or Chiang Mai. Local resellers are already marking these up by 200%, but you can skip those prices by shopping directly from the source.
Why everyone wants the 'Have a Good Run' Horse Pendant
This pendant isn't just a toy; it is the ultimate accessory for the 'coquette' and 'maximalist' bag trends. The Year of the Horse edition features a unique plush texture and a vibrant design that stands out on any tote or backpack. Since it is a regional exclusive, collectors in Thailand are scrambling to find them. Instead of waiting for a local release that might never happen, many fans are choosing to shop us store websites to secure theirs early.
Finding the best US shops for Pop Mart
Your best bet is the official Pop Mart US online store or authorized boutique retailers like Mindzai or premium toy shops in California. These stores often restock randomly, so you need to be ready. Because these shops rarely offer direct international shipping that is affordable, using a freight forwarder is the most reliable strategy. This allows you to ship to a US-based warehouse first, which often provides a tax-free us address in states like Oregon, saving you about 7-10% in US sales tax immediately.
Logistics and shipping estimates for the Horse pendant
Before you hit the checkout button, it is helpful to know what you are looking at in terms of weight and size. This helps you estimate shipping cost more accurately.
| Metric | Details |
|---|---|
| Box Weight | Approx. 0.5 lbs (0.23 kg) including retail packaging and shipping box. |
| Box Dimensions | Small (Approximately 6" x 4" x 4" or 15cm x 10cm x 10cm). |
| Volumetric Warning | While the plush is light, if the retailer uses an oversized box, volumetric weight might apply. Always ask your package forwarding service to repack your items if the box looks too large. |
| Battery Check | No lithium batteries. This is a standard plush item, making it very easy to ship internationally. |
Using a freight forwarder for Thailand delivery
Getting your package to Southeast Asia is simpler than it sounds. Once your 'Have a Good Run' pendant arrives at your US address, you can manage the Thailand delivery through your account dashboard. Using a service like comGateway ensures that your collectible is handled with care. If you are new to this, there is a helpful step-by-step guide available to walk you through the process of receiving and releasing your package.
Trying proxy shopping for hard-to-buy items
Sometimes US stores decline international credit cards. In these cases, you might want to use proxy shopping services (often called 'Buy For Me'). The agent will purchase the Horse pendant on your behalf and let you know when it arrives at the warehouse.
Managing import tax and customs in Thailand
When your pendant arrives in Thailand, it will pass through customs. Currently, in 2026, items with a total value (including shipping) under 1,500 THB are typically exempt from import tax and VAT. However, because the Pop Mart Horse pendant is a high-demand collectible, its price might hover near that limit. If you are buying multiple pendants to share with friends, be prepared for a 7% VAT and potential duties. Using major carriers through your parcel forwarding service, such as DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping, usually means they will handle the customs clearance for you and bill you for any fees at the door.
By following these steps, you can add this viral 2026 piece to your collection without the stress of missing out or overpaying local resellers. Just remember to check the shipping calculator early so you can budget for the total landed cost to your home in Thailand.
