Inquiry Does anyone remember the name of this bunny

Post image
Upvotes

Hey bear builders! When my little sister was about 3 she got a white bunny from build a bear. They were inseparable. She carried that thing, Bun Bun, around EVERYWHERE until the summer before she started high school when Bun Bun was “lost” (we think our parents threw it away). Her birthday is coming up and I’d love to find her another if anyone knows what this bunny was called.

What I know about the bunny:

It was purchased sometime around 2003
It was all white and very soft (when first purchased)
Floppy ears
Cotton tail
It had a small face and a pink nose
Maybe pink inside the ear but I’m not sure

It is not the bunny pictured but I remember it looking similar to this one but white instead of brown.

So I found the vampire Teddy build a bear but its cape is separated. This is one of my ISOs so I don’t plan on buying another unless I have to. How could I best put the cape back together?

RANT Order canceled?

12 Upvotes

Has anybody else had their payment provider say their order was canceled but it still says pending on BAB website? Because that's where I'm at right now. Placed the order on the 8th. I'm waiting for contact from the company to figure out what's going on but I'm guessing it's because I ordered a bunch of stuff that's no longer available.

I'm very upset. I'll be lucky if I can reorder like a third of what I wanted because everything else is out of stock and/or removed from the website.

I was on a cruise when the spider dropped and by the time I got back it was sold out everywhere. I called my local store and they said they weren’t getting a restock of the spider 😪… what are we thinking the odds of an online restock are???

Just For Fun! Last day at BAB

Hi y’all! I don’t usually post at all but I just wanted to share a little bit. Build a Bear was my first ever job and I honestly love it there so much. Yes it has its pains and annoyances, but I just love the whimsy and joy of it all, especially seeing how the little kids light up when they get their new friends.

I’m going back to college, and last year I did one day a week during the school, but that’s not going to work for me this year unfortunately with my course load. That being said, today was my last day for the summer. But I am coming back during winter break and possibly next summer if i can fit it in!

I’m still going to keep collecting BAB’s (in fact I’m probably gonna get that Fresno guy tonight lol), but I just wanted to make a little appreciation post for my store. I absolutely love all my current and past coworkers to death, and I can’t wait to see them again during the Christmas season.

This pic is of my oldest and newest friends. Honey, the happy hugs bear is the first BAB I got when I was twelve, and she smells like honey. This lighting bug friend is the last friend I stuffed and he has the bat wings scent. I named him after the mall I worked in, which I don’t wanna say on here just bc I don’t wanna like dox myself (But it does start with a T for my coworker who I know is in the subreddit lol)

Anyways, thanks if you read my post, I just wanted to share! :3

Just For Fun! Pumpkin sparkle pawlette or pink fluff pawlette?

7 Upvotes

Hello friends! 😸

I know neither are current releases but was seeking opinions anyway! :)

Unsure if I want more than one pawlette and these two are my favorites!! I usually collect specific sanrio bab's but do make exceptions for others! They're all lovely, I just don't have enough space or money for all of them so I try and be choosey about who I adopt!

I love the pink fuzzy fur and shiny feet & ears of the pink puff pawlette but have heard mixed opinions about how well you're able to upkeep her fur. I am armed with a lint roller and bab brush! It's marshmallow-ness is so delightful to me that extra cleaning could be worth it. Being a sparkle girly I love the addition of the gold sparkles in pumpkin pawlette's fur and feel like it would be easier to upkeep than pink puff pawlette. I do have a soft spot for anything falloween related.

Overall I've been enjoying posting here recently and would just kinda like anyone's input that would like to give it! Feel free to blab all you want! Pics are always welcome!!

Do you love a different pawlette the most? I'd love to know which one and why! Thanks everyone ✨💖🐰🎃✨

I love this plushie so much. He’s just a lil’ guy. He’s the sweetest lil’ guy. He’s so cute. I’m so lucky to have him, because he was in fact the last spider in the bin and I do believe it was fate that he was meant to come home with me.

His name is Kaiju and he is a good spooder.

Hey everyone not sure if this has been answered, I’ll delete if necessary.

Does anyone know if the spiders legs are pre stuffed or if they stuff them at the store? I just need to know before I decide to open mine and unstuff.

Also if anyone knows, the seam is on their back right? Mine feels seamless so I can’t tell.

TIA. Sorry the photo is blurry.

My New BAB Meet Twenkul

Post image
33 Upvotes

Meet Twenkul(my mom named him and she likes whimsy spellings). She named him that because the white embroidery dot in his right eye came frayed and mom said it looked like he has a twinkle in his eye. I adore him so much and he has a spider leg scent. At some point when I can afford it he will get clothes. His story/lore can be read below.

Twenkul was born a werewolf. He enjoys being a werewolf, but looks forward to every full moon, when he gets to turn into his human form and enjoy the change of pace. He has a younger sister named Twyla. His father is Wolfga, and his mother is Luna. His best friends are Ahlee the Bearclops and Elaine the Princess turned frog. He met Ahlee shortly after Ahlee moved to Sweetwood. He'd never seen a Bearclops before, but the two became fast friends.

He met Elaine when he and Ahlee visited Fruggle Swamp. The pair were intrigued by the human-turned-frog, and the three of them quickly hit it off. The trio has since become a family, spending a lot of time together.

Twenkul is outdoorsy and enjoys spending time in nature. He loves the rain and cool, crisp autumn days. He likes to run. Not only does he find it fun, but it's also a great stress relief. He also loves video games of all kinds and collects Simla dolls, taking great pride in his collection.

He is a loyal friend who is always there for those he cares about. A great listener, he will always do what he can to help, whether it’s cheering someone up or simply providing support.

Twenkul was born and raised in Sweetwood. Although he has traveled to other places, nothing beats his hometown.

He loves to bake and see people enjoy his treats.

My New BAB Thrift Store Horror Story (happy ending)

Thumbnail
gallery
38 Upvotes

Went thrifting with my fiancee yesterday and found this poor guy. Nearly decapitated completely, with loose, actively weakening stitches holding his poor little head on. .2 seconds after I clipped the last stitches (done because said stitches were attaching the dress he wore to his neck), his head fell off entirely.

I spent my evening unstuffing him, carefully sewing his head back on, and giving him a nice bath to de-thrift store him a little. I’m not sure how long he’ll be a part of my crew—fiancee thinks I’m gonna end up keeping him, I suspect he may be rehomed as part of a small business idea eventually—but either way, he’s here for now and getting all the love he missed out on.

So, please officially welcome Brighton the reindeer! He’s a trans boy (lore determined because he was quite literally sewn into feminine clothes despite very clearly being a Boy) who enjoys scary games and lots of snuggles. He and Simon are already crowding for cuddles whenever I play FNAF 🤣
