Along with the success of "Shopkins" season 4 last December 2015, kids are now anticipating the release of "Shopkins" season 5.

Well-known for their endearing playsets and collectibles, kids will be happy to know that their favorite Shopkins toys from Moose Toys are slated to arrive in the US by June 2016. However, the release date will vary depending on the store location; hence it is safe to say that it will be commercially available around July to August this year.

According to Toy Kingdom, Moose Toys releases their Shopkins toys every six months. Shopkins season 1 originally arrived in June/July 2014, along with season 2 in December 2014. June/July 2015 was the time Season 3 arrived, and six months later season 4 came out in December 2015.

Petkins, Limited Edition, Sweet Treats, Garden, Homewares, Accessories Party Time and Pet Shop were the latest collections introduced in season 4. Petkins is one of the fan-favorites since it introduced pets into the Shopkins world.

In last month's New York Toy Fair, Growing Your Baby was able to have a preview of collections which can be anticipated in the upcoming season 5 of Shopkins. One of which is the Style Me wardrobe, featuring an adorable storage for a Shoppie to keep her clothing items and accessories. It includes a rotating display case and a mirror. Along with it comes the Shopkins Glitzi Globe Set, plus 10 themed building sets sure to entertain kids as they play and build the pieces. Thanks to Shopkins' collaboration with The Bridge Direct, kids can build their very own Food Fair Truck similar to the one released in previous seasons.

Baby items can be expected this coming season, with the upcoming Baby Shop featuring a rocking cradle, a store, and three characters from Shopkins season 2. A Super Market is also included in the upcoming collection, which comes with a two-level food court, side Pizza shop plus eight characters from season 2 of Shopkins.

As of the moment, the toys featured are just prototypes; hence a price is yet to be confirmed.
