Fisher-Price is pivoting a little to pay tribute to a favorite 90s sitcom. The iconic friend group from the beloved, long-running television series has been turned into adorable Little People. Could they BE any cuter?
The special-edition Friends-themed set comes at a perfect timing—it was launched on National Monica Day (yes, it’s a thing), and is of course a nod to Monica Geller (played by Courteney Cox).
Monica, dressed in her chef’s uniform, is joined by her brother Ross (David Schwimmer) in his unforgettable leather pants, and their friends Rachel Green (Jennifer Aniston) in her Central Perk apron, Chandler Bing (Matthew Perry) with his duck, Phoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow) with her “political” Christmas ribbon, and Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) in the layers of clothing he’s stolen from Chandler.

A few other references appear on the box, with the most noticeable of them all being the famous fountain and Monica’s apartment. You’ll also find Rachel’s hairless sphynx cat, the chicken from Chandler and Joey’s unit, Marcel the monkey, and the police badge that Phoebe finds and keeps.
“They don’t know—that we know—they know—we know!” the packaging reads.

Each character only stands 2.5 inches tall, so be sure not to keep these pieces near people as tiny as Ben and Emma.
The collector’s set, priced at US$29.99, is now available on Amazon.
