The Cat in the Hat Thing 2 Boxed TUBBZ Review - Double the Trouble
Hey there, duck collectors and Seuss fans! 🦆
If you thought Thing 1 brought enough chaos to your collection, wait until you meet their partner in mischief. The Cat in the Hat Thing 2 Boxed TUBBZ is here, and this little duck is ready to add some wonderfully wild energy to your shelf. Whether you grew up reading Dr. Seuss books before bedtime or discovered the magic of Whoville later in life, this collectible captures everything we love about the most famous troublemaking duo in children's literature.
A Duck That's Thing-ified to Perfection
This Tubbz takes the iconic look of Thing 2 and translates it beautifully into rubber duck form. The bright blue hair is the star of the show, sculpted with that signature wild, gravity-defying style that makes the Things instantly recognizable. The red jumpsuit with the bold "Thing 2" circle badge is rendered with clean, vibrant paint that pops against the yellow duck body. The attention to detail here is fantastic. From the mischievous expression on the duck's face to the way the blue hair sweeps upward in playful chaos, every element screams classic Seuss energy.
The sculpt captures Thing 2's playful personality perfectly. The duck's pose suggests movement and fun, like it's about to dash off and cause some delightful mayhem. The paint work is crisp with excellent contrast between the red suit, blue hair, and yellow duck base. The finish has a subtle sheen that makes the colors feel bright and cheerful without being overwhelming. This is a duck that demands attention in the best possible way.
Display-Ready and Desk-Approved
At standard Tubbz size, Thing 2 feels substantial without taking up too much space. It has that perfect heft that makes it satisfying to hold, and the balance is spot-on for display. Whether you're setting it up on a bookshelf next to your Dr. Seuss collection, placing it on your desk as a daily dose of whimsy, or building a full Seussian duck display, this little guy fits right in.
The boxed presentation is clean and collector-friendly, with a window that lets you admire Thing 2 before you even open it. It's the kind of packaging that looks great on a shelf if you're a mint-in-box collector, but also makes for a fun unboxing experience if you want to set your duck free.
A Personal Seussian Memory
I remember the first time I truly appreciated The Cat in the Hat as an adult. I was reading it to a friend's kid, and when we got to the part where Thing 1 and Thing 2 appear, the whole room lit up with excitement. "They let the things out of the box!" is still one of the most joyfully chaotic lines in children's literature. That energy, that sense of controlled chaos and pure fun, is exactly what this Tubbz captures.
Better Together: The Thing 1 and Thing 2 Set
Here's the thing about Thing 2, you really need Thing 1 to complete the pair. These two are a package deal in the Seuss universe, and they're even better as a matched set in your collection. The Thing 1 Boxed TUBBZ is also available, featuring the same excellent sculpt style and vibrant colors, just with the "Thing 1" badge. Displaying them side by side creates an instant focal point that any Seuss fan will recognize and appreciate. Whether you line them up on your desk, bookshelf, or in a dedicated Tubbz display case, the pair brings double the charm and twice the nostalgia.
