You’ve seen it at church entrances, on car mirrors, in baskets woven tight with twine. Maybe it came home in someone’s hand, wilting sweetly by dinner. Such is the sampaguita: familiar, fragrant, and culturally significant, and Pop Mart’s latest Space Molly drop captures this exact feeling, wrapped in vinyl and reimagined in full bloom. A collector’s piece, yes, but also a soft reminder of where you’re from—this is Pop Mart’s newest, Philippine-exclusive release.

Everyone’s collecting something. On one end: perfume bottles, pressed petals, old Polaroids. On the other: art toys and vinyl figures—such as the Space Molly in Blooming Sampaguita—lined up like proof of taste.
Even local personalities have succumbed to the spell. Marian Rivera has them lined up like a pastel army. Heart Evangelista’s collection could file for residency on her bag collection. Such is the Pop Mart effect.
Which brings us here: the Sampaguita Space Molly. Perched on her signature spaceship, she arrives dressed in soft white and pale green, a direct nod to the national flower she’s inspired by. It’s purity, simplicity, and subtle strength cast in clean vinyl.

However, it doesn’t stray far from the classic Space Molly silhouette, so what gives the Sampaguita edition its edge? Three things.
For one, it’s exclusive. This drop is only available in the Philippines, making it instantly more desirable to local collectors and harder to ignore for anyone watching from abroad. Second, it taps into something personal. More than a pretty decoration, the sampaguita is a national symbol. Pop Mart could’ve chosen any flower, but they chose one deeply tied to local memory, meaning, and quiet strength. Lastly, it’s beautifully designed. Everything about this Space Molly feels soft, intentional, and shelf-ready. She still sits on her signature spaceship, but this time, she blooms.
So, whether you’re buying for the symbolism, the shelf presence, or simply to own a piece that reflects home in a new form, this Space Molly is a bloom you don’t need to chase. It’s already here.
Want her on your shelf? Head to POP MART at SM Mall of Asia to shop the exclusive Blooming-Sampaguita drop.
