Summary
Build-A-Bear is best known for selling soft toys that you assemble yourself. Taking a trip to one of its stores to pick out a bear to stuff and dress is a core childhood memory for a lot of people. Build-A-Bear has also become a go-to for uniquePokemonplushes more recently, however, and starting today, a Cubone bundle has been added to the site’s Pokemon collection.
Pokemon’s Build-A-Bear process is a little different, especially if you buy its plushes online. That obviously means you can’t be there for the stuffing process, but there is a perk to buying Build-A-Bear’s new Cubone bundle online. An outfit that can only be obtained by buying the Cubone through the Build-A-Bear website comes with the bundle which provides you with a matching nightcap and blanket for the adorable little Ground-type.
The element of the Build-A-Bear process that remains the same with Pokemon is the sound chip inside. Squeeze your new Cubone plush and it will make a sound just like Cubone does in the real Pokemon world. I’ve not heard the sounds it makes, but I’m assuming they’ve been pulled from the Pokemon anime as opposed to the Pokemon games. A plush that says its own name in an adorable voice works. One that lets out the screech it was given for theGame Boygames that has stuck ever since, maybe not so much.
Cubone Bundles Are Now Available At Build-A-Bear
Put That Pokemon In A Poncho
Build-A-Bear’s Cubone bundle also comes with a poncho and right now, the US site is the only place it’s available. The bundle will be available in the UK soon though, as well as in-person - or in-Cubone - at Build-A-Bear stores across North America. The only real catch is the quality and unique properties of Build-A-Bear plushes mean they tend to be quite a bit more expensive than your average soft toy. The Cubone bundle is available through the link below for $70.50.
Build-A-Bear Cubone Bundle
Build-A-Bear’s Cubone plush bundle is a part of a growing Pokemon collection. Like the rest of the plushes in the range, Cubone comes with an outfit, two outfits if you order it online. There’s also a sound chip inside that makes Cubone make one of five noises when you squeeze it.
If you’d like a Pokemon Build-A-Bear and you’re not bothered about it being the new Cubone bundle,the site has some discounted Pokemon bundles included in its gamer sale. There are also someAnimal Crossingoptions included in the same sale for up to 50 percent off. Really stick it to Tom Nook by picking up his plush for half price and then refusing to pay it rent for the rest of time.
Cubone’s arrival at Build-A-Bear comes almost exactly one year afterthe reveal of its sleeping plush. As cute as its Build-A-Bear is, Cubone’s sleeping plush design was a level above due to one tiny heartbreaking detail - a single tear embroidered into the corner of its eye. The product’s description confirmed the tear was there to show Cubone was crying while dreaming about its deceased mother.
