Quick answer: A Toniebox 2 does not come with any stories, so the real gift price is the player plus the characters. One clean starter basket from the official Tonies store: the Sky Blue Toniebox 2 at $129.99 plus the Bluey, Bingo and Muffin three-pack at $49.99, for a $179.98 merchandise subtotal as of November 12, 2026. One catch: the player is rated 1+, but this Bluey pack is rated 3+, so it is a gift for preschoolers, not for a one- or two-year-old.

A player-only price and a character-only price are not competing offers for the same thing. The useful comparison is a defined basket: the player plus the specific stories the child will actually listen to.

What is in the Toniebox 2 box

Tonies lists the Toniebox 2 and a USB-C charging cable in the box. No Tonie character is included. The cable is intentionally short to meet child safety standards for ages 1+, so check whether you need a USB wall adapter for the spot where it will charge (Tonies).

New on Toniebox 2, according to Tonies: Tonieplay interactive games that only work on the new box, a sleep timer with light, a sunrise alarm, Bluetooth connectivity for tonies headphones (sold separately), Tonies app controls and a light ring for game cues. Existing Tonies characters work on both the first and second generation. Tonies also notes the updated charging connection may not work with some carriers or bags made for the original.

Age labels: the part to check before you wrap it

The Toniebox 2 listing is marked 1+. The Bluey three-pack is marked 3+ and carries a warning for children under 36 months (Tonies). The player’s age label does not override the character pack’s. For a child under three, choose characters with an age label that fits instead of relying on the player’s rating.

Optional extras: keep them separate

Headphones, a carry case and more characters are add-ons, not requirements. Price each as its own line rather than folding them into the starter total, and remember the box charges by USB-C, so older Toniebox accessories may not fit.

Is a bundle a better deal?

Only if it delivers the Toniebox 2 and stories the child wants at a lower eligible total, or adds extras the buyer genuinely wants. Counting unwanted characters at full retail value makes a bundle saving look bigger than it is. A discounted first-generation Toniebox is also not a deal on the Toniebox 2; it is a different player without Tonieplay or the sleep and alarm features.

For any extra promotion, confirm the exact items qualify, whether membership or a minimum spend is required, and whether offers stack before counting it.
