Received a new cuddle buddy today

[Crinklz Kat]

It's been nearly a year wait, but he's finally here!   This is my Plushlife "Winston" cuddle dragon - I've named him Stromberg (inside joke with myself).    Here he is cuddling with my small tiger that's pretty big for a plushie in his own right.

Love the eyes 

[Crinklz Kat]

That's one of their trademarks.  The eyes are embroidered.    I also have the snow leopard they released in 2018.

 

Wish I had got at least one of the others.  They're quite expensive if you buy one as they're released, but try to get one second hand and it can be significantly more than the original price (as in thousands!)  A new project should be coming very soon - hoping for another big kitty.

Wow! That's cool! Is that the giant version I saw listed, or the regular one? 

If you don't mind, what was the ballpark pricing on it with their preorders? That's really cool! (The snow leopard was quite the design, that one's cute!)

I’m guessing he doesn’t breathe fire? 😁 But he’s pretty cool!

Regular one.  It was 899 Euro, then tack on the shipping, so 990.  Then there's the exchange rate.    The giant one was over 2000 Euro.

The giant one must be HUUUGE! Yours is already one of the larger stuffed animals I know of that's not a novelty teddy bear around Valentines... very cool!

The snep (snow leopard) is even bigger!   And I don't recall a "large" version available back then.    This is her on a queen bed.   I found the cover on the Kohls web site and had to have it.

She’s adorable! Looks like she may fight you for the bed though! 🤣

I bought one of the 7ft tall bears (I call him pipsqueak) and can confirm, its like having a plushie, needy spouse when it comes to bed space being at a premium

Wow. That dragon is really cute and cool! 👍 I can just imagine myself being cuddled by a 200 cm/80 inch Winston 👩‍🦲🥰
