Animal Crossing x build a bear!

[Firesquids]

true, yes, to my knowledge

and of course, then there's creature inc's developer involvement too

pokemon's business aspects are a fun probably confusing mess to most people

Creatures inc used to make the models for the main series Pokemon games, though interestingly Game Freak seems to have cut ties with them during the development of Sword and Shield.

-puts on tinfoil hat- Probably has something to do with why all the Pokemon didn't make it in...

Game Freak - Wikipedia

they have done stuff outside nintendo (exclusive), yes, albeit rarely

Ooh! Thanks for the link! I'll learn something new today.

As someone who has embroidered before, they must use digitized designs and their placement is perfect. And the colors. Really a beautiful plushie.

Sounds good, but I usually don't like to buy things online unless it's from Amazon, and that site surely doesn't have what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Maybe you already know about it but jakks pacific made an mk8 villager figure. This was a few years back so eBay might be your best bet for him.

I already got one of those. It's right next to me on my bed right now.

Nearly 3 hours in line and my walking dude isn't even to the half way mark and it says I still have over an hour.

How are they not sold out yet?

Same my guy is barely moving if anything I’ve become convinced he is walking backwards....

He's moonwalking!

Crazy wait times aside, I still feel like this is being handled much better than the Sanrio Amiibos at Target.

tbh its not really hard to handle it better than that haha

 

[.: Meri :.]

My little dude has finally reached the halfway mark! Wait time is... still "more than an hour", but we're getting there.

Even though I'm disappointed there are no villagers, after waiting in line for 1.5 hours Nook really grew on me so I ordered him

 

[Furrton]

It's the voice -- don't lie!!!

 

[psiJordan]

I just saw that some people are already buying resales of these for $150+ USD???

I was just able to go on Build a Bear and order one without even waiting

 

[coldpotato]

I love plushies and would have loved to add some animal crossing ones to my small collection but I do not stan Tom Nook or Isabelle and they look pretty weird. I will also never in my life pay more than $50 for a plushie unless it is supporting a small business. It's actually quite gross to me the price is that high.

 

[Nefarious]

I know these just came out but... how often do they release new sets of a series?

I kind of debating on the Tom Nook one, but if that Coco speculation ends up being real, I'd rather save my money for that one.

I just saw this on Twitter! So for everyone disappointed by the lack of characters, don’t lose hope yet!

Edit: Someone further down in the comments also mentioned that this is how their original Tweet was worded and quickly deleted.

Now a message on the waiting room saying limited supplies today does mean being in the waiting room doesn’t guarantee a purchase. It’s been hours now that man is going nowhere!
