Squishable Squishmallow plush toys by Kellytoy have been flying off shelves since 2017. There are now over 1000 different Squishmallow creatures to collect and squeeze. They reflect hundreds of animals, sports, emotions, and even individual character names. They each have their own stories and adorable personalities.
With so many Squishmallow characters, some have been produced less frequently than others. There are exclusive editions and promotional plushies that drive exclusivity (and, therefore, the price). Collectors on sites such as Mercari and eBay are now paying hundreds or thousands of dollars for the rarest Squishmallows. These are the 8 rarest Squishmallows that money can buy.

The Cinnamon Roll Squishmallow is named Chanel for the designer perfume. As you might expect, she’s a Frenchie and a fancy pastry who loves cooking and being sweet. According to her character information, she volunteers at local food pantries and teaches other Squishmallows how to bake and decorate.
Her body is a solid tan-colored pastry with black eyes and a pink mouth. Her “hair” is cream-colored icing with a brown cinnamon swirl on top. She’s part of the Valentine Squad, which makes her pretty rare since they often only release these lovable squishable Squishmallows once. She was the Valentine’s special in 2020 and often costs as much as $450 when the bidding gets intense.
Did you know?
Chanel is actually a reasonably common Squishmallow in her default form, which has a heart-shaped cinnamon swirl, no cheeks, and no eyelashes. However, the plain cinnamon swirl with rosy cheeks and eyelashes, as well as a bigger and more complex icing pattern, is the Chanel listed here, which is a rare version exclusive to Canada. Finding this particular pastry will require a lot more digging.
