Updates

I am happy to say that fulfillment is complete for my first plush campaign! It took longer than I anticipated, but it's done and I'm so pleased. The last orders have been packaged today and will be shipped this Monday! I'm uploading tracking numbers tonight or tomorrow (I'm feeling a bit under the weather)

If you have any problems with your order OR have not received your order (minus Seven's Magpie wolf which are shipping Monday) please message me. My email is [email protected]

I hope all of you enjoy your plushies! This has been such a rewarding journey. Overall, I'm super pleased with the foxes and received wonderful feedback on the quality. Some designs had more consistent defects than others. I will be working with this same manufacturer for my 2nd campaign and will work carefully with Tina to hopefully ensure all future designs can maintain my high standards.

Tina's wolves also are exceptional. The coyotes had more B grades than I would have liked, but overall they are worth the high price. I would like to do a campaign of realistic wolves from her in the future (all black, arctic, red wolf, all with and without wings), but due to their size and my limited space this will have to wait a long time.

Seven's wolves are what I expected. Not as bad as I originally thought though. The ones I received are quite an improvement from the very first 50 I ordered from them though! The floppiness and body shape are truly my favorite and exactly what I want in a plushie! Only their muzzles and ears need adjustments. I am looking to find another manufacturer to try making them if they can keep the style and low order quantity. Or I might work with Seven to find another designer inside their company who can maybe perfect my vision. I would do this on my own time and not during a campaign. 

Here's the newest magpie wolf versions mailed out on the left next to one of the original 50 on the right. I definitely see a lot of improvements, but it can still be lots better 

Seven's coyote was actually quite nice, just a lot of twisted noses and I don't like the construction of the muzzle. Inside of ears also didn't line up right, but I also have to realize these are mass produced and maybe I'm just too picky. I want the mouths hand embroidered in the future too. I didn't know how to ask this before! But this is mainly notes for future designs. I don't have plans to restock any current designs. I think I have about 8 of these coyote left :)

And that's it! This is officially my last update for this campaign. Thank you everyone! Much love to you all <3

Seven's Magpie wolf have finally arrived! I'm not in love with them. Almost all the noses are placed too high and the ears are smaller than I wanted. I'm definitely done working with Seven's company. I hope to maybe find a different manufacturer who can do a better job with faces, but keep the body the same one day! I do love how buttery soft and floppy they are. 

This one has one of the best faces of the bunch :/

Anyways, I want to start fulfillment next week! Probably on Friday.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SWITCH YOUR MAGPIE WOLF TO TINA'S VERSION, MESSAGE ME BEFORE THURSDAY THE 17TH. [email protected]
I also am not opposed to canceling and refunding if you do not like this plush at all and don't want Tina's version. Again, just email me before the 17th, I'm easy to work with :) 

After September 17th I will fulfill all orders as marked and no changes can be made.

Thank you everyone! And sorry for the long delay in fulfillment. 

Finally! Tina's Magpie wolf and coyote pigeon have arrived and are waiting patiently for me to start opening and packaging them.

This month is crazy for me so fulfillment will be SLOW! I also don't want to hurt myself again so please be forgive me. You've all been so patient and I thank you so much!

Overall Magpie wolf looks awesome. The muzzle is maybe a little fatter and shorter than I'd like, but otherwise he's good!

Coyote Pigeons were stuffed in smaller boxes so I'm having a harder time with them. They need to be shaken and fluffed up again, but they are SO squished it takes about a day for them to come back to normal. This is them after sitting for over 24 hours. Their wings have taken the longest to come back to normal. Yours may have wrinkles in it, but once they get enough oxygen they should bounce back to normal!

You can really manipulate the fur around the eyes to change their expression! This plushie below is the same plushie as the one above

The biggest thing that bothers me is the paw sculpting. I did NOT know that you'd see the thread on the bottom of the paws. It's on all of them (Magpie too) to varying degrees. My prototypes are not like this :(
I will be talking to Tina about it to see what she says. I don't like it at all and I'm so sorry to everyone else that is bothered by it.

Another thing is a lot of the noses can be twisted slightly? Which has been nice to fix the crooked noses for me, but I can see it bothering others. And the black around the eyes can also be manipulated on some which is great to fix expressions! But again, some people might be bothered by it for which I apologize. Ears are not perfectly matched on any of them really. My B Grade piles are mostly based on eye placement, how crooked the nose is, holes, and other strange defects.

Anyways, when you get your plush give it a nice shake and a good brushing! These guys have long fur and it kind of gets tucked in the seams and especially around the eyes. I'm going to try and NOT touch them all up before they go out or fulfillment will take me forever. There may be random loose string that just needs cut too and some plastic that can be pulled off from the embroidered paw pads.

These guys really are impressive in person! I will have extras, probably mostly B grade. They will go up on my website after fulfillment is complete. If you have ANY problems with your order once you receive it please reach out to me at [email protected]

Enjoy some photos I took today in the light!

Hey everyone! Update on Tina's wolves for those waiting on them.

Tina's Magpie wolf shipped over 2 weeks ago and will probably take another 2-3 weeks to reach me. Here's pics of the mass produced ones before they were packaged!

Tina's coyote pigeon's have JUST shipped, but with a faster shipping method so they should also arrive in 2-3 weeks. The reason they took longer is I had them redo ALL the eyes. The black parts around the eyes were angled too far down so they all looked a little sad/dopey. Here's the before pic

And now they all look more like this one below! I got sent a video to confirm and they look SO much better in my opinion. I feel a little bad because you can't reuse plastic safety eyes (from my understanding once they are put together, they don't come apart without breaking). So that was the delay in them being finished!

Totally worth it in my opinion! I'm very happy with the pics and videos and can't wait to see them in person. I have close to 110 of these larger wolves ordered so give me time to package them when they arrive. There will be extras available to purchase after I complete fulfillment :) 

Seven's Magpie wolves should be finished soon! I just reached out and will update this post with what they say. 
UPDATE, they should be finished by the end of this month

Thank you everyone for being so patient. Waiting really is the hardest part!
