How to Train Your Dragon Merchandise: Best Collectibles and Gifts

Merchandise from the How to Train Your Dragon films is the licensed range of toys, figures, clothing and gifts built around the DreamWorks Animation films and the live action remake. The simplest way to shop is to start with the film a gift is meant to recall.

The saga began with How to Train Your Dragon (2010), directed by Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, in which a teenage Viking named Hiccup befriends an injured Night Fury he names Toothless. Dean DeBlois directed How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014) and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019) on his own, with Jay Baruchel voicing Hiccup in the animated films. He also directed the live action How to Train Your Dragon (2025), which starred Mason Thames as Hiccup and Nico Parker as Astrid. That film earned $636.9 million worldwide on a $150 million budget. You can read more about the series on our How to Train Your Dragon movies hub.

The live action How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2027) is scheduled for a US release on June 11, 2027 from Universal. Stock and prices can shift around a release, so check current listings before you buy. Shops also vary by country, which means the US, UK and Australian markets each need their own search.

One practical point for parents: all four main films carry a PG rating in the US, UK and Australia, so Toothless, Astrid and Gobber suit a wide age range. Younger children usually want something to hug or play with, while older fans lean toward display pieces and clothing. If you want to see which characters appear in which film before you buy, our How to Train Your Dragon characters page lays them out.

Plush and toys suit kids, vinyl and display figures suit older kids and collectors, and shirts and gifts suit adults. Specific products, prices and stock change often, so check current listings in your own country before you commit. Amazon, Target and BoxLunch are common places to start a search, and Funko and Her Universe are brand names to try in the search box for figures and apparel.

Plush and play toys are the best choice for young kids, because the dragons are the draw for young viewers. Toothless is the obvious pick, since he is the Night Fury Hiccup befriends in How to Train Your Dragon (2010) and the dragon who anchors every film after it. For a child who prefers a different favorite, the Light Fury from How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019) gives a lighter colored alternative, and our dragons page covers the species in the films.

Vinyl and display figures suit older kids, teens and collectors who want a piece for a shelf. Characters such as Hiccup, Astrid, Stoick and Toothless are the natural subjects. Collectors can pair the animated Hiccup, voiced by Jay Baruchel, with the live action Hiccup played by Mason Thames in How to Train Your Dragon (2025). Our live action vs animated comparison explains how the two versions differ, which helps if you are choosing between looks.

Shirts and other apparel are the easiest way for adults to show fandom without a display case. Shirts for adults from the films tend to come in two styles: a simple dragon silhouette or a character print. Sizing and fit differ between ranges, so read the size guide, and keep in mind that UK and Australian shops often list different designs from US ones.

Gifts for adults work best as prints, mugs and keepsakes tied to the story, such as the Isle of Berk. Searches for Isle of Berk also return Epic Universe results, so check that a listing is for the films' merchandise before you buy. A fan who grew up on How to Train Your Dragon (2010) may enjoy a keepsake that recalls the Viking island where Hiccup and Toothless first meet. For anyone building a gift around a viewing night, our where to watch page shows which film is streaming in the US, UK and Australia.

A Toothless item is the safest gift for a mixed age household, because he appears in every film and both children and adults recognize him. If the recipient has not seen the films yet, the watch order page will tell you where to begin before the gift arrives.
