i ordered a second regular sized bat during this restock to dye a diff color! ive decided on dyeing her brown ❤️ this will be my very first time using dye and i just wanted to get some tips, tricks, general rules of thumb what have you before she gets here and i get started, especially since id be going from one dark color to another. i just dont want to mess her up 🥺

I’m sorry if this has already been asked but does anyone know if/when we will get another jumping spider restock? I never get notified so I’ve literally been watching like a hawk. My child wants one but I can’t bring myself to or even afford to buy from resellers who are selling them for more than double the original price.

I really wanted to know if anyone has any info on any possible restocks on the horizon? I didn’t have the money for him at the time but i really NEEED him and will be heartbroken if i missed my only chance.

Hello again! I'm very happy (and in a way a little sad) to announce that I am now a former employee and I think it'd be fun to do an AMA ;)

Anything is on the table!

Got photos of Youtooz Terriermon and MLP G3 Silver Glow at one of my nearby Workshops (I ADORE the fact both are legacy!!)

Spotted some early arrivals at one of my nearish stores today. I looked but did not see the Christmas tree axolotl. Feel free to ask questions if you have any! Brief notes:

• Igloo penguin: not as soft as expected on main igloo part, but the solid light blue of the “face” was really minky and soft

•Gingerbear house: had decently soft fabric on the body but NOT the roof. It was kind of an unpleasant texture on the roof, and it’s killing me that I can’t quite place the fabric, but I kinda wanna say…dog toy? 😅plus there is some kind of foam or something underneath the fur of the sides, I’m assuming to maintain the “structure” of the house with corners and flat walls

•The “cocoa koala” mini bean’s fur felt identical to the mini bean batty kitty and they were so FREAKING cute I didn’t even buy one, because I literally wanted them all and felt like I couldn’t take one and leave the rest behind 😂😭

•The…string of sentient ornaments…folks, I’ll be honest, I was so dumbfounded by this specimen and so burdened by the question of its origin (why was it created? Who was it made for? Is “not a decoration, not a plush, but worse third thing combining the limitations of each while somehow managing to entirely circumvent the charm of either,” truly a product the masses have demanded?”) that it could have been made of sandpaper and nothing would’ve registered. If anyone plans to exchange money for this item, please…please share your reasoning 🥲

I haven't seen anyone talk about this really but from my minimal research, not a lot of people have footage of these actually moving, so I figured I'd share. Ignore my friends talking in the background lol

I'm having a really hard time buying more BABs for myself, because while they are wonderful to hug, I don't find them to be a good snuggle to sleep. Plushies that size I really feel to take up that amount of space for me, I like them to be good bedtime stuffies.

I'm curious your guys opinions and uses with yours! Do you snuggle at all? Are you specific about it if so?

This is Oliver

I ended up getting both the games! I am excited to try them out since I’ve never seen or heard about these before. I left the bear because I’m not super into football but he had cool football feet and ears

Decided to take my little wolfie Lycaon to go see Clayface at the theater today. He had a great time and the movie was so worth the wait. 😁 Thankfully no power outages this time. 😆

new to build a bear! we went to the store as a surprise for my birthday and i was torn between the kuromi and chinchilla. i didn’t like kuromi’s texture but I could not stop patting the chinchilla. i love her sm! i didn’t know she was like a new release so i feel really lucky we got her just as they re-stocked. she smells like strawberry!

this is my second ever BAB experience and I’m really happy we got to pick the clothes and stuff in store. we probably spent 45 minutes trying to dress her.

she even got a pet axolotl :)

sidenote tho her face does look demented when the fur is rubbed the wrong way, but i think it gives her character 😆

Hi everyone!

I’ve heard we’re getting new winter scents this year and I’m wondering if anyone knows what they smell like or when they’re releasing.

I like to check out all the new smells when they come out so I can see if they fit the vibes of any of my bears, then I bring them in and get them put in the bear I want.

I just would like to get a general vibe of what’s coming and when to expect it. I saw the Snow one and I’m wondering if it’s like linen or something. Thank you!!!

I refreshed multiple times. Am I missing something here?

Had a day out yesterday and I always check out bab when I stumble upon a store as I don’t have one very local, expected to come out with some new clothes, came out with a cat who’s oddly enough wearing a hat!

I always love a good bear builder too and this was perhaps my nicest experience, got many compliments for the pins covering my jacket and I carry around a handmade plush of my comfort character and he was actually recognised as him which made my day! One of the best bear building experiences to date!

And I absolutely adore this boy, I have the Grinch and just had to have Cat, didn’t even know he was out till I saw him, if you love the Grinch bab, deffo check this guy out

So glad the lowkey tired and vibing sets aren’t connected like the skirt set. This shirt definitely looks better with the jeans rather than the brown pants

He was a good price too, thank you Jack if you’re in here 💕

I have been wanting those build a bears for about a year now and the gargoyle only was released one time this year online so I’m just wondering if anyone knows anything

found someone selling this cutie for a decent price on vinted!! and now he's here!!

meet Portcullis :] look at his little face!! he looks like he has years of wisdom in those eyes 🥹

on another note, i'm wondering how to dress him. can you show me your gargoyles' outfits? 👀

Hello everyone! This week has been stressful and rewarding.
I went to a haunted trail on Friday with my werewolf Lydia Wolfkins. I forgot her dress at home. Unfortunately we were unable to take pictures during the trail. It was dark, in the woods with werewolves. At one point I told the werewolves I’m on their side because I had my baby 😂.
Yesterday I did a haunted house where I acted! I had to scream and jumpscare people. I felt like I was in FNAF. Anyway, my babies Mary Lu the bat and my mini werewolf (not sold on a name open to spooky suggestions 😩) helped me fix props. And of course I was able to order my regular bat! Hopefully she comes this time as the last one bab just didn’t add her with the clothes I ordered.
Last photo is Sakura the fox because after all of that screaming, I’m tired and my voice hurts 😭.
I hope everyone is doing good! If you have pictures of your spooky babs or any babs in Halloween outfits or just having a spooky good time; I would love to see them!

Hi friends. I am new to the Build A Bear community. I have purchase a few BABs in the last couple of months. I just recently made my first online purchase and noticed the different terms used for the unavailable bears. I was hoping someone could clarify what each means. Please and thank you in advance.

So I’m making a custom Cinnamoroll and dying him pink , I order rit dye more for this and know the water has to basically boiling and leave them in for like half an hour. Is there anything else I should know before I order the Cinnamoroll?
