With the differences in this, it encourages a phenomenon, where the existence of this phenomenon encourages this research to be made, this research itself was made with the aim of analyzing the comparison of designs between traditional Pixiu and Shenxing Pixiu toys from the visual aspect, symbolic meaning and shifting functions in the context of popular culture. The research methods used include descriptive-qualitative analysis of design elements and literature studies. The results of this study indicate that Shenxing Pixiu can maintain the core values of traditional Pixiu but with a more commercial and entertaining approach, so that it is more easily accepted by the younger generation. These changes reflect the adaptation of traditional culture to the modern market without losing its original identity.
