26 'Squid Game' Gifts That Will Make You the Real Winner This Holiday Season

Shows like Squid Game, which immediately grip millions of viewers, don't come around often. There's something special about the way Squid Game fans were attached to the Netflix series from Episode 1. The show, which was filmed in South Korea, is about a competition with a series of challenges that are based on popular playground games.

The winner gets 45.6 billion won, or $38 million USD. The losers all die in the games leading up to the final showdown. It's intense, heartbreaking at times, and leaves you wanting more each episode. Naturally, you're going to want to either find Squid Game gifts to add to your holiday wish list, or find the right gift for the Squid Game fan in your life. And we've got you covered.

There are few things more synonymous with Squid Game than the creepy over-sized doll in the Red Light, Green Light game. This one is quite a bit smaller at 9.8 inches tall, but it's a replica of the real thing from the TV show. Unfortunately, if you want to buy it for your Squid Game fan bestie, you'll have to pre-order it for its January 2022 release.

Price: $125 from Netflix's online store.

Choose from any of the six Pop! Funko Vinyl figures made to look like a handful of the main Squid Game cast members. Whether it's one of the armed guards, the "Old Man," or our hero himself, Seong Gi-Hun, you can pay homage to them by displaying one of these figures in your home or gifting them to a friend so they can.

Price: $11.99 from Netflix's online store.

Give your giftee the gift of playing the game from Squid Game with the Dalgona honeycomb candy. In the show, players have to use a needle to gently scratch a shape out of hardened sugar.

Price: $15.99 from LuxeKitchenStudio on Etsy.

If you'd rather give the gift of making your own Dalgona candy or cookies that just look like the iconic Squid Game shapes, you can buy cookie cutters to do just that. The set also comes with needles and tin containers if your giftee wants to really get into the spirit and make the candy instead of cookies.

Price: $17.99 on Amazon.

Whoever the Squid Game fan in your life is, chances are, they wouldn't want to actually play the deadly game in real life. They might, however, want to see what they look like as one of the players. You can commission a personalized piece of art on Etsy that puts your loved one in the game.

The Squid Game fan in your life might need coasters, but they probably won't want to actually use them so they can preserve them. Luckily, all four can easily be washed by hand.

Price: $16.99 on Amazon.

You'll have to know your giftee's personal or business information to get this one for them, but if you have all of the details, you can surprise them with personalized business cards on theme with Squid Game.
