Tropers who love plushies, unite!

For all those of you who love plushies, stuffed animals, rag dolls, teddy bears...whatever you may call them and whatever they may be, feel free to talk about them here. Share pictures, discuss, and remember: you're never too old for plush toys.

I've been collecting quite a few since last year. 😅 In fact, the two most recent ones that I bought arrived today (a Zekrom and a big armadillo )!

My current dream plushes are:

Flat Eric◊

France◊

Gaspard◊

Jellybot◊

Nice! I'm not familiar with the show he's from, but Gaspard is so cute.

Obviously I'm posting this way late, but my grandma got me a plush Basset hound for Valentine's day! Her name is Grace and she looks like this!

Aww. :D

That dog is so cute!

Also, Gaspard is from Gaspard and Lisa, a French children’s book series.

Speaking of characters from European kids’ literature, I forgot to mention I also want a Cheburashka◊ plush!

Oh yeah, question for my fellow plushie lovers. Have any of you bought a commissioned/custom-made one before, or know what would be a good place to get one from?

Bam.

Anyone making their own plushies, or want to make some?

I've recently got into plushie-making myself (after having kinda wanted to try it out for years), mainly the "chibi-style" character plushies type. First one that I'm currently working on is Spamton, and I also have potential plans for Neptune, CATS and various OCs

(Sorry for the late response, I haven't checked this thread in ages. 😅)

I don't know anything about how to make plushies, but it's really cool that you're getting into that!

Edit: I had written more stuff here but I realized that I had already posted about it on this thread. :P

Also, I've been missing my plushies lately, since I've already taken them to my new place but haven't been able to move in yet.

Once I get a fumo, my life will be complete

I collect unicorns. I don't know why.

Got this cuddle pile of cuteness back in 2018 when we visited New York City and I went on a bit of a shopping spree in Nintendo NY. This picture was from the hotel room back then; they live happily on my dresser now.

Hey, do you guys have any advice on the best way to wash plushies?

It depends on the plushies; some can be washed in a washing machine, though you'll want to put them in a pillowcase first. Most plushies will have washing instructions on their tush tags!

All the plushies I oen at the moment.

A while ago I cleaned out under my bed and holy damn there was a lot of plushies. I try to keep them all in my bed since there's not much room elsewhere but they keep constantly falling off.

I got plush toys of Latte and Mepple some time ago. Additionally, I love to collect Pokémon plush toys.

what's up? over the years i have been given plushies by my parents, but most of them ended up getting given away/thrown out/etc.

luckily, that doesn't happen anymore. right now my favorite plushie is this little guy dad got me from a crane machine (thanks, dad!)

(aw man. tv tropes made the image sideways. oh well)

I make stuffed animals of my own, sometimes, like of my own OCs. I also make plush toys of actual characters if I don't want to buy official toys of them (though of course, I don't plan on selling them, it's all just for fun).

HERE HI HELLO HI I LOVE PLUSHIES

I mean, one of the things I refer to on my Troper Page is my huge plushie collection, so...

I like to collect owl plushies, specially those based in Winnie the Pooh character.

At some point I had a lot of plushies (having the Disney store close to my home in Chicago pulled my weak point), but moving on to Spain only left me with three plushies (an Owl, a christmas bear from the Kinder surprise collection and a Chicago themed Mickey Mouse), but my wife gave me a big Owl plush in my birthday.

My best one is Meilin Lee in her red panda form, which I online-ordered from Build-a-Bear in 2022. No sound though.
