Yum Yums :: Reissues
"So yummy to love!"
Yum Yums were a short lived series
produced by Kenner/Hallmark in 1989-91. They were
large, colourful plush animals with sweet treats
pictured on their bellies, ears and feet. There
was also a one-off special cartoon made.
Yum Yums were reissued by a Japanese company around
2011 (licensed by Hallmark) and produced a multitude
of accessories. They also introduced several new
characters.

Reissues
There were literally hundreds of different kinds of Yums Yums merchandise produced in Japan, from bags and clothing, to phonecases and stationary. You name it, Yum Yums were printed on it! The look of the plush Yum Yums varied very little from the original plush version, and the cartoon images printed on merchandise was based on original artwork too.
Plush Reissues
All six original Yum
Yums were reissued as plush toys, along with two new characters.
