Hasbro brings interactive pets and fidget toys together in Nano-mals

Hasbro has detailed Nano-mals, a new line of mini electronic companions that double as interactive fidget toys.

Each Nano-mals pal features over 70 sounds, lights and reactions, and comes with a textured outfit for added sensory play. Kids can mix and match outfits with other Nano-mals pets to create their own unique styles, and each pet includes a portable keychain for on-the-go play.

Nano-mals also interact with each other. If two or more Nano-mals figures are placed in front of each other, they connect and reveal reactions, lights and sounds.

“Through this exciting introduction, we’re presenting tactile and nurture play with overall captivating interactive pets,” said Tim Kilpin, Hasbro’s President of Toys, Games, Licensing and Entertainment.

“We can’t wait for kids to connect with their new best friends.”

The debut line includes Strawberry Cow with Mint Tracksuit, Highland Cow with Tuxedo, Blue Kitty with Teal Mermaid Tail, Calico Kitty with Purple Iridescent Skirt, White Unicorn with Ombre Skirt, Midnight Unicorn with Yellow Mermaid Tail, Narwhal with Puffy Vest and Red Panda with Rocker Jacket.

Nano-mals figures launch Fall 2025.
