Summary
Build-A-Bear added a new player to plush collecting almost 30 years ago when, as its name implies, it gave you the opportunity to create your own soft toys. The brand has become so successful and widely recognized since then that it has partnered up with the likes ofPokemonandAnimal Crossing, giving fans the chance to make unique plushes from their favorite games, and right now some of those plushes are on sale.
If you’ve shopped at Build-A-Bear before, you’ll know that building and accessorizing your own plush doesn’t come cheap, particularly when that plush is officially licensed by the likes of Pokemon andNintendo. Those plushes are also rarely on sale which makes these heavy discounts particularly appealing as some of the Pokemon and Animal Crossing bundles in stock right noware as much as 50 percent off.
Grookey, Scorbunny, and Squirtle’s Build-A-Bear bundlesare all half-price right now, bringing them all down to less than $36 each. The bundles include two outfits for your plush if you buy them online and will make their signature noises when you give them a squeeze. There are alsoa variety of Pikachu optionsincluded in Build-A-Bear’s Gamer Sale, Munchlax is there too, and so is the very popular Dragonite bundle.
Half Price Pokemon And Animal Crossing Plushes At Build-A-Bear
Tom Nook Feels A Lot Less Intimidating All Of A Sudden
While there aren’t as many Animal Crossing options to choose from,all of them are half priceand all of them are less than even the cheapest of Build-A-Bear’s discounted Pokemon options. How much you pay depends on how much you want from your plush. If all you want is an Isabelle, KK Slider, or Tom Nook plush, thenyou can currently grab one for just $22. If you want your Tom Nook Build-A-Bear to speak or sing, you’ll have to pay extra. The speaking and singing Nook plushes are $26 each.
Build-A-Bear Dragonite Plush
Build-A-Bear’s Dragonite plush is a bundle that includes a hat and scarf for the Pokemon as well as a cape. There’s also a voice chip inside so Dragonite can make sounds when you press its hand.
Animal Crossing New Horizons Isabelle Build-A-Bear Plush
Isabelle’s Build-A-Bear plush is based on the iconic Nintendo character’s look in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Isabelle is dressed for summer and the bright outfit she’s wearing is included with the plush.
While official Animal Crossing plushes are out there, they’re not nearly as widely available as their Pokemon equivalents. That makes a lot of sense not only because there are a lot more Pokemon to turn into plushes than there are Animal Crossing characters, but, and no offense Animal Crossing fans, Pokemon is a much bigger deal, no matter how many copies ofNew Horizonsare sold. Pokemon has been adding to its massive plush collection pretty frequently lately,handing Appletun and Dipplin their plush debuts.
