Why Rabbids matters to collectors
The Rabbids were meant to be disposable antagonists in a Rayman platformer. The platformer became a minigame collection, the minigame collection sold millions, and within a few years the Rabbids had their own games, their own television series and eventually a crossover with Mario. Very few supporting characters have taken over a franchise that completely.
Key issues and milestones
- Rayman Raving Rabbids (2006) - A Wii launch-window title, and the Rabbids' debut as a screaming mob of antagonists.
- Rabbids Go Home (2009) - The first game where they carry the whole thing without Rayman involved.
- Rabbids Invasion (2013) - The animated series, which ran for years and put them in front of an entirely new audience.
- Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (2017) - An unlikely tactics crossover with Nintendo that reviewers liked a great deal more than anyone expected.
The Rabbid scream was built from performed vocal takes rather than synthesised sound, and it is the only thing they ever say. They have no dialogue in any game or episode.
Collecting Rabbids through the years
Rabbids merchandise has always leaned toward plush and small vinyl figures, sold in wide distribution at pocket-money prices rather than as collector pieces. That makes the early Raving Rabbids-era plush harder to find in good condition than their production numbers suggest, which is the usual fate of toys aimed squarely at children. The Mario crossover produced the first Rabbids figures genuinely designed for display, including licensed statues of the Nintendo-costumed versions.
Rabbids on VeVe
VeVe's Rabbids releases come as the Roblox Rabbids Takeover series, tying the Ubisoft characters to their Roblox appearance. Blocky and cartoon-styled subjects sculpt very differently to the realistic licences, which is part of the appeal in a mixed collection. Releases are scheduled drops with tiered rarities.
