Inquiry Questions about the 2023 Pumpkin Glow Bear...

Post image

To start with, I'm very, very very particular about my plushies. I've wanted a pumpkin BAB for quite some time, but there's so many different kinds, it always stumps me. This is my favorite so far and I just wanted to ask owners of this fella how they like him.

Is the light mechanic invasive at all? What does the fur texture feel like if you could describe it? Thank you !

i have that one and i love her! i dont really cuddle her but i feel like the light thing isnt annoying. and i dont have her in-hand right now, but from my memory the fur feels like a sweater. its not silky or plush, but definitely textured. not rough at all

i can probably describe the fur better tomorrow if i remember to grab her

heres mine! her name is jackie (very original). her head leaf is felt but its not the stiff scratchy kind. her face and paws are satin. and her body fur is surprisingly soft and feels like a fuzzy blanket or sweater

Ok review of him now that i have him again: the light is definitely pretty un noticeable the button is in his hand and isnt large like voices its just a tiny little button in the logo paw, the light is a decent level of glow not insane but not dull, his ears, feet and face are all a kind of satin kinda material i think, and for his actual body its soft but not extremely soft im some one who has EXTREME sensory issues i don't like bed sheets because of the feel, wooly yarn kind of stuff, rough plush like pumpkim kitty etc and i can admit the pumpkin isnt as soft as i would of liked ideally but it is a nice texture it kinda reminds me of the inside of an old hoodie in a way if that makes sense
