Animal Crossing x build a bear!

[Furrton]

I am not driving 170 miles again for this one. That's all I can say. Those stuffed animals are pretty expensive so I probably won't be able to afford them. Unless there is like a fluffy Dierdre purse or waistbag or dog raincoat or something, and then I will go into debt. A mom's plushie...nah.

kind of surprised that they're releasing them on a workday morning since a lot of people will be busy, but if they're planning on restocking them again in the future then that's fine. Can't wait to find out which characters they sell!

It's like they think we are all young children!!

I wonder what the waiting room thing is about?

It is a room where you wait to actually purchase. It was the same for the Harry Potter bear release. Doing it that way helps everyone have a chance to select what they want and helps with traffic management so the site doesn't crash.

Like a chat room? A page? Or you go to the store?

Fascinating! I thought waiting room meant you all sat down in a waiting room at the store, and I thought "I'm pretty sure Australia doesn't have that..."

Anyway, I hope you will all post pictures of your ACNH Build a Bears!

I feel like one of them has to be Stitches, he's literally a stuffed bear

June would be really cute too

I am working tomorrow so won't have time to do the waiting room thing, but tbh I also would rather know the characters in advance! There are only a few I'd be interested in buying. So I think I may just wait and see what are announced tomorrow and then take my chances to get one in the summer if I like what is released.

I'm excited but I do wish we knew ahead of time what characters they'll be, I don't want to waste the time/space if they're not something I want. I do think Stitches will be one of them, too, but I'm hoping for Daisy, Bones, or Leif.

Molly or Lolly would be so cute

found this out through twitter earlier today! i’m excited to see which characters this collab will include but i find it a bit strange how we received radio silence once the collab was announced and then boom its suddenly launching tomorrow morning?? i also wish they had revealed which characters were made into plushies like,, imagine waiting around tomorrow only to not be interested in any of them. >_<

Bit annoyed they haven't at least told us who's going into the collection before releasing them... At least with their Pokemon range there's normally a leak beforehand.

Still not getting my hopes up for any personal faves, but I might login just in case. At least if it's Isabelle and Tom Nook (like I'm guessing), I can just log right back out again

Wow, I totally missed this somehow. Is this an exclusive one time drop or will these be available in stores as well?

 

[Nefarious]

A little less than an hour and 30 minutes for the waiting room to be made available, in case anyone wants to try their hand at it.

I think for now it's online only, but others have said that they got an email saying they'll be available in stores in the summer!
i'll probably have a look at what's released online when it comes out, but i think if i'm going to buy a build a bear i've gotta wait and get the full in person experience!

Yeah I was thinking, the entire build a bear experience would probably be a bit lost when ordering one fully made. I'll probably wait as well!

I'm pretty annoyed it's dropping in the middle of a work morning lol, I'm making my sister get in line for me because I'll be in a meeting sharing my screen. But overall excited to see what they made because Build-A-Bear and Animal Crossing have been my two favourite brands since I was little!!

If you type in some names like Raymond and Audie on the build a bear website it redirects you to the animal crossing coming soon page!!

Was wondering about this collab. Looking forward to seeing which villager(s) they’ve chosen.
