Pop Mart transforms Pattaya Beach

Pattaya has been transformed into the world's first beachfront art toy destination, with four giant Crybaby balloons on display alongside two adorable figures of Molly and Skullpanda, until Aug 2.

A collaboration between Pop Mart and Central Pattaya, with support by the TAT and Pattaya City, the showcase is part of the "Pop On The Beach" campaign to promote pop culture economy and tourism growth in Chon Buri's beach town.

Measuring 8m in height and 12m in length each, the massive character balloons are a world-class super IP crafted by a Thai artist under the concept of "Crybaby Cry Me An Ocean Series" to convey stories of healing the heart by "keeping emotions and feelings in a private sea".
