Kitten Catfe Meowbles: All Series and Special Editions
Released alongside the Purrista Girls, the Kitten Catfe Meowbles were first seen in early 2020 where they came in a surprise teabag with each doll. Single Meowble Yarn Balls were also sold (sans Doll) that had materials for a friendship bracelet and 1 Meowble.
And here's where the Meowble lore starts to get a bit tricky...
The series 1 collector's guide shows the Meowbles above, but when looking at the individual yarn balls, you see a different set of kitties. So it's important to note that the Meowbles that come with the Purrista Girls are part of a different set!
Current Meowble Count: 24
Purrista Girls Meowbles: Series 2
Just like in series 1, you have mystery Meowbles that come with your doll. Series 2 has another 24 Meowbles to collect.
Current Meowble Count: 48
Purrista Girls Meowbles: Series 3
Series 3 is where the pattern breaks, and we only see 19 Meowbles to collect. The "reveal" is also different for this series, with Meowbles now being revealed through a boba pearl.
Current Meowble Count: 67
Purrista Girls Meowbles: Series 4
And my sleuthing begins... Series 4 is a continuation of the Bubble Tea theme, and has another 19 Meowbles. I am hopeless at figuring out with Meowbles have a metallic finish or are clear (for the Boba ones), but I assume series 1/2 have metallics, and 3/4 have clear ones.
Current Meowble Count: 86
Purrista Girls Meowbles: Series 5
I'd just like to take the time to point out that the official Kitten Catfe website is wholly useless as a reference guide. Although they have "Collector Guides" listed on the toolbar, any broken links just get you sent to the Jakks Pacific homepage.
So, I used the Wayback Machine and managed to find these guides when the links weren't busted. Some don't load well in the WB Machine, but copying and pasting the URLs into a regular tab seems to work. I guess they left all the files just floating around. Anyway, 12 new Meowbles were released with series 5.
Current Meowble Count: 98
Meowble Yarn Balls: Series 1
Back to the Meowble-focused lines, each yarn ball contains 1 surprise Meowble. This collection has 24 unique Meowbles to collect.
Current Meowble Count: 122
Meowble 4-pack Yarn Balls: Series 1
Oh, you thought that was it? WRONG! We hit the big 100, and now we have two smaller editions to cover.
Alongside the individual yarn balls, assorted 4-packs were also sold. Each came with the same 4 Meowbles, as this seems to be an Amazon exclusive.
Current Meowble Count: 126
Meowble 4-pack Yarn Balls: Series 2
After looking through reviews, this 4-pack is also an Amazon exclusive, and comes with the same set of 4 Meowbles. So, this *special* pack only contributes 4 to the final Meowble count:
Current Meowble Count: 130
130 is the final count! Digging for this info was fun, and no shade to the Purrista Girls (just not my thing). If there are more releases I missed, please let me know.
