I thought the whole fun behind these bears is to watch them being built ?
and kissing the love heart before putting it in the bear
and decide how soft you want them to be
and the smile on the shopkeeper's face when you bought so many useless extra accessories for the bear
and the painful look on my face when walking in with $20 voucher and going home with $100 less cash in my pocket
Bought my girlfriend one of these a year and a half ago, she still loves it to bits! I made it in the store, that was the best part! Still, not too bad if you want a customized bear.
I'd rather build my own… from patterns.
Already done it once (although I never bothered finding somewhere that sells eyes so…).
Actually I bought a bear kit from Woolworths too $11. Just need to put the stuffing in and use the plastic needle+thread to seal up the back of it.
RAINBOW DASH!
Yes?
Rainbow Dash ^_^
I wonder if there is a business model in selling at home party packs. You could import the bear pattern, stuffing, accessories, etc. and sell party packs where parents can return unused patterns and accessories for a refund.
Considering the $5 bears at Target earlier this year, there must be plenty of room to undercut build-a-bear's pricing.
