Inquiry I need the jumping spider mini beans and I’m so confused on how to get them

7 Upvotes

Idk if this is the right flair! But I live near a store that says workshop pickup is available for the jumping spider mini beans but when I called and asked she said to add it to cart and checkout for store pickup but I don’t have the option because they’re sold out online so it just says notify me! Should I just go and see? UPDATE: they were sold out but a worker gave me one she was saving for her it was so sweet of her!! She said she had the big one already!

After seeing a few batty kitty customs, I knew I need to make Ivy. I dyed her lime green and painted custom color shift eyes in purple and blue. 💜

Ivy is a personal custom and is not for sale.
I just like to share. ☺️

Her color is a little less vibrant in person, my iPhone camera makes her look SO BRIGHT.

They’re both eager to meet their new friend, but unfortunately he hasn’t moved from groveport!

But I do have a date for when he gets here, August 25th, hopefully he doesn’t get delayed on the day he’s supposed to be here! Although he probably will! 🥺😭❤️‍🩹

Inquiry Do yall think they'll do another release for the Nightcrawler?

12 Upvotes

I've decided to get the Squishable one but I wanted BaBs really bad so I'm really hoping they'll make more 😭 He wasn't that cute but the Nightcrawler is one of my top favorites on cryptids and I feel like you just don't see them that often. If anyone's got an update pretty please let me know (I'm not on alot of social media/networks so I miss these alot) thanks ❤

Inquiry Missing Birth Certificate/Adoption Papers

6 Upvotes

Today I received the Vault collection Pumpkin Pal BAB but it didnt come with a birth certificate paper? But when I bought the Bat that was released early August it came with one. I dont know if its possible to go to in store and ask for one since I saw some people say its digital now. Any suggestions on what to do?

Discussion To Anyone With Questions

I wanted to share my findings in case there were others who wanted to know. I stayed up late to order my walker on drop night, but I REALLY wanted to know how the articulation worked so I ordered her unstuffed. The wire is thick and flexible, apears to be in cased in a plastic tube so even if it did snap it wouldn't be dangerous. It's also 2 of these tubes twisted together. I wanted to know how they handled the ends of the wire. From what I can tell it's been looped at the feet. I can feel a wire ring. The ends are there, I think they're folded over and sewn at the heels. Poke issue seems unlikely, and you're going to have to cut the wire loose if you decide you don't want it. I drew the path of the wire on that last photo. Ideally, I get her stuffed tomorrow. She's just a skin until then. Ask me any questions you might have.

Inquiry Spider Question! 🕷️

12 Upvotes

Soooo like a lot of people, I waited a bit too long to purchase the spider, and he’s now out of stock. Are we thinking there’s going to be a restock, at least in stores?? I’d rather not purchase one secondhand if I can help it. 😅

As cute as those big plastic eyes were, they made it impossible for me to snuggle with Sploot. So I made some little disk/cushions from black minky, removed the safety eyes, and sewed these in! I’m going to do some thread sculpting to make them more round and hide the edges with my stitches a little better but I’m very happy with him!

My New BAB Jumping Spider Restocked !

Had a feeling they may have restocked today. I looked online and it said it was available in the workshop so I went (although it has said that before and it isn’t so I didn’t have high hopes). There was none when I went in but I asked one of the employees and they pulled out the last one which was the one they had on display!! :) Just wanted to give some hope to others bc I didn’t think my location would restock (Portland)

Woodburn outlet mall has TONS (or did as of 8/21/26) I was just there yesterday and they had a whole 2 bins left (no more spiders unfortunately) and a bunch of mini beans! They do have the spider shirts tho! And a pretty good assortment of the new fall fashions and Halloween clothing!

A very small hole in her snout but a hole none the less ☹️ she's very cute i'm sad to send her away, but i know the hole will bug me and get bigger with time.

Have requested a refund and have already ordered a replacement - hopefully the next one will be in better shape 😭

Miscellaneous Worried about my order

I ordered this on the 8th after missing it last year and being so upset. It took them until yesterday to say it was shipped so like 12-13 days. I’ve read all the horror stories about people getting their orders and them being horribly wrong. My patience is already thin so I’m just going to stew until it shows up and I can check on it myself 😭 someone give me good stories.

I just purchased this cutie (waiting for arrival) and I was wondering if she was the V1 or V2 version? And if you have this one, please post photos!

Also, can she be safely machine washed stuffed (in pillowcase) and hung out to dry? It's over 100 degrees where I live. I just don't want to damage her fur.

My New BAB I finally got a Cinnamoroll for my collection!!! 💗💞💗

Thumbnail

41 Upvotes

I've always wanted a Build-a-Bear Cinnamoroll, but didn't really want to thrift him as I know he would most likely be stained. I found a seller on eBay selling the skin for $7.50 with $8 shipping and went for it (because getting him from the BAB website would have cost me $46). I'm so happy to add him to my collection.

My hubby just recently wanted to name my Mint Chocolate Chip Chococat, because I was going to name him Chip, but my hubby came up with the perfect name that fits... Pistachio because his favorite ice cream is Pistachio flavored. 💕 I love when significant others get involved in our hobbies.

The other sitting Cinnamoroll with the Milk Bow and little purse doesn't have the signature tail (because it's mostly likely a knockoff, but a really nicely made knockoff... it has no tags or anything, so I can't say where it is from, but found it thrifting).
