Matching accessories include the Milli Bricks Back Bling—a stack of gold bricks forming the Young Money logo—and the flaming Weezy Board Back Bling paired with the dual-wield Weezy Boardbreaker Pickaxe.

Rounding out the release is the Young Money Stage Glider featuring pyrotechnic effects, choreographed “Lollipop” and “6 Foot 7 Foot” Emotes with Las Vegas-inspired lighting, and three Jam Tracks (“Lollipop,” “A Milli,” and “6 Foot 7 Foot”).
