Halloween plush — stuffed ghosts, pumpkins, bats, black cats, spiders, and skeleton characters — is a Q4 category that wholesale buyers must order in August to receive before the selling window opens in late September. LeTin Toys in Chenghai, Shantou supplies Halloween plush toys at roughly $0.80-$4.00 per piece FOB Shantou, with minimums of 1-5 cartons per design and quotes returned in 1 business day.
East Coast US buyers need to confirm orders by mid-August, and West Coast buyers by the end of August, to have stock selling by early October. The math: seasonal production runs 25-40 days in peak months, plus sea freight of 15-20 days to the US West Coast or 30-35 days to the East Coast. An order confirmed August 15 arrives at a West Coast warehouse roughly September 24 to October 14 — and at an East Coast warehouse October 9 to 29, which already misses part of the season. Every week of delay in August costs a week of October sell-through.
Ghosts, pumpkins with faces, bats, and black cats are the four core movers, followed by spiders, witch hats on animals, and candy-corn characters. FBA sellers list them individually at $12.99-$19.99 or in trick-or-treat multipacks; retailers and party stores stock mini sizes (15-20 cm) as basket fillers and standard sizes (25-40 cm) as shelf items. Bulk Halloween toys beyond plush — squishies, light-up wands, stretchy spiders — combine into the same mixed container of up to 200+ SKUs.

Yes — the 1-5 carton MOQ per design means an FBA seller can bring in 3-5 Halloween SKUs for a few hundred dollars in goods rather than committing to factory minimums of 1,000+ pieces per item. Mini ghost and pumpkin plush at $0.80-$1.50 FOB support $9.99-$14.99 retail price points. Unsold stock carries over: ghosts and black cats resell every October with no design obsolescence.
Yes — identical standards apply, and LeTin Toys arranges third-party testing per destination market before shipment: ASTM F963 with CPC certificates for the US, EN71 for the EU, INMETRO for Brazil, NOM for Mexico. LeTin Toys is a BSCI member and has shipped seasonal programs since 2018.
No — August is the deadline month. West Coast-bound orders confirmed by late August still land by early-to-mid October; East Coast buyers should confirm immediately.
