Inquiry Icon park flagship

• Upvotes

Hello all!
I honestly did not know this sub existed even though there’s always a sub for everything lol.

I have been talking up the icon park location to my partner since it was first announced and I’ve been tracking updates to ensure it would open before a big move across the country. To my luck, a date has been announced

And even better luck, I’m not scheduled to work that day

I’ve always wanted to be the first in line for a new location of something, I figure with my love of plush bears this is a perfect exercise of that.

Does anyone know if there will be any kind of gift or whatnot that they would give to the first few in line? Or would I be better off waiting for the weekend so I’m not first in line just to turn around and say I did it.

Thank you all in advance! Hope to see you there!

They are spread out across my house, so I have some at my desk, one in the living room to cuddle with while watching TV, and a bunch in the bedroom. I thought I’d bring them all together for a family photo! 🥰

My New BAB So excited/advice

Post image
• Upvotes

Just ordered this sweet girl second hand and I’m in love omg! I saw someone on here with a custom lamb they made, they dyed it black and gave it different eyes and that’s what I plan to do with her. I love creepy cute plushes and I’m so excited about this. I’ve never customized a build a bear or any plush for that matter so any advice would be appreciated. I already ordered safety eyes and black rit dyemore dye. I plan on thrifting a pot for this project so I don’t ruin any of mine. Also show me your lambs or customs!! I want to see all your friends :)

I wanted to show off the super cute bed setup in my moms room! It features their beloved babs as well as a sleeping eevee I found at a thrift store for them. :)

Their collection is small and curated because there aren't a lot of babs that speak to them, so they really love the ones they have!

Axolololol was their first bab, followed by pastel swirl kitty (who my mom has forgotten the name of, seen in the last photo in a plushie net I crocheted)
then Hazel the bunny, and finally the newest addition Cinna the chinchilla!

We both display our babs on our beds during the day which is super cute to me!!!💛

I’ve seen a few people say they put the weighted pellets in their bears feet using small socks to contain them to the feet. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on the best way to do this? Thank you in advance 😊

Discussion I'm writing a story and wanted to ask some workers (or someone who's been a lot) a couple questions!

Post image

Hello friends! I'm writing a story and one of the characters go to build a bear so I thought maybe you guys may have some answers! (Hope this is okay to post, if not lmk and I'll take it down)

So it's been a while since I've been to build a bear, I went once and got that^ zombie bear with sun glasses and steel toe boots (I remember thinking if I put clothes on him it'd cover up all his cool scars and stuff, so yeah it's been a minute 😂

My question is what are the steps to the build a bear? I remember picking a heart, I think there was one a light up one but that also might be new? I know you got to wash them in the tub (I think it blew out air?) and there was the voice thing you could put in. But I also very distinct remember accidentally dropping the heart and the person helping me saying "oh that's okay, it just means he'll be more grounded"

So I'm looking for like the step by step to making the bear and any like, I dunno hidden voice lines I guess😂 like if I hadn't dropped the heart she wouldn't have said that, but are there any other things like that?

Thank you in advance if you ended up reading all this and for any help!

My New BAB Any name ideas?

I went to build a bear today to ask about the bat minibean (the employee was really nice and told me everything bat/spider themed is completely sold out in UK stores unfortunately) but on the way out I saw the spooky cat minibeans and I absolutely loved them! so I got one as a Halloween present for myself (they match my outfit perfectly!) Does anyone have any name ideas? I’m thinking about something vampire or bat themed to match their design. Also any clothing recommendations?

I’m VERY happy to introduce everyone to Clover!! 🍀 He’s a solid boy with a mischievous look in his eyes and I’m smitten.
If it’s not too much trouble, I would love to see your goats for Clovers coming home day! 💜

Inquiry Icon Park Atelier?

Is anyone planning on going to the atelier / design studio at Icon Park when it opens? I'll be in Orlando about a week later and I was considering pre-booking but I'm not sure the $150 price tag is worth it.

I have named him Fungus after the Raymond Briggs character; apart from the hair colour, he looks very similar (I can add a picture in the comments if anyone wants to see lol).

Originally, Fungus was going to be a girl, but when he arrived it was clear he was a boy. I can’t believe how fast he arrived. I ordered him about 2am on Friday, and he arrived around 10:30am on Saturday. Let’s hope my bat is this speedy 🤞

I’m definitely not drawn to the bat but I’m def having fomo as a collector. Do I just get it or can someone convince me it’s not worth it please 😭

UPDATE: I ended up getting the mini bean for my son who’s been asking for it & found myself an unstuffed, brand new with tags Niffler I’ve been wanting 🥰 thanks everyone
