Getting too old for stuffed animals.



My Stuffed animal collection is not really big.  Having grown up in a household that had Great Danes as pets all the time  ( see below)Yes that’s our family dog not a horse.  They would eat any stuffed animal you gave them.   Upset with boyfriend?  Feed the dog the stuffed animal he gave you.

So the while the idea of a 22cm big Plushie Gryphon to add to my collection as a reminder of me playing Wow is kinda cute,  and sweet.. and makes me do a big girly aweeeeeeeeee.

I was kind of expecting it to be smaller – and cheaper though and I think I am getting too old for stuffed animals.   I mean Big ted already gets upset when I sleep with Raggedy Anne what’s he going to do when I pick a real bird over him

Seee  aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee  ( I so want to say Squee….. ) and the bonus ingame pet is nice

So this feathery bundle of joy works out to be  50 bucks plus Australian when you add our currency conversion. Yes you get a  in game pet,  and I might be being a little stingy – and a simple no thanks would have been sufficient.  I blame our dollar.  If I buy two it’s the same shipping ( rip off)

See I figure,  If I can complain about the authenticator shipping price when it  was 77.81 then suddenly became 20.68

Then maybe…   just maybe   it will get cheaper

    But it… it clearly needs a hug!

    I must admit that I purchased both of the plushies, but I had no idea that the international shipping was so crazy! That’s more than it cost me to have both of mine sent two day mail 😦

    Of course, mine will probably end up as puppy toys as well…although not intentionally!

    Big Ted is such a jealous bugger. He hasn’t been the same since Jemima went off with Humpty.

    I didn’t realise the shipping was so much 😦 Was hoping to drop hints for a birthday pressie, but… 50 bucks? 😦

    You could always feed big ted to the great dane, then he cant complain. And it should send a stern warning to raggedy andy as well.
    Gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelette …

    So very, very tempting – and very easy to justify as a fun little early birthday present for myself.

    (Of course, the downside would be the need to install a shelf above my computer monitors so I’d have somewhere to display them…)

    If they’re that big, it’ll be worth it!

    No garuntees of course.

    @Tyra Wow.. then I really could take the bird to bed – the store says they are only 22 cm those ones look like those massive teddybears in flowershops that need their own room ( or side of the bed)

    @Kiwired – You might need that shelf – if the pandaran monk sales is anything of an indicator at our willinginess to spend extra – then I lay bets we shall be seeing more pet plushies

    Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just
    your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and all.
    However think of if you added some great visuals or videos to give your
    posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this website could definitely be one
    of the greatest in its field. Good blog!
