WIGGLEBOTTOM

 


Arrival Date: 6/8/26

Size: 15" 

Year: 2026

Designer: Charlie

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $102.50

Thoughts: This was an unplanned adoption. I fell in love with two Wigglebottoms, but this one won out. I love the stripes on his face! He's also super cuddly.

ERAGON

Arrival Date: 6/8/26

Size: 11.5" tall but much longer

Year: 2026

Edition Size: 2000 (Mine is #1480.)

Designer: Ali Montgomery

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $300

Thoughts: Eragon finally made it home! He's SO SOFT. I can't believe how soft and squishy and lightweight he is. I thought he'd be a lot bigger and heavier. Not that I'm complaining. I love this size. He's excellent colors and the design is wonderfully unique. I'm not a fan of pokey whiskers, but hopefully they won't get in the way of cuddles.

GRANVILLE

Arrival Date: 5/13/26

Size: 13.5"

Year: 2026

Designer: Isabelle Lee 

Purchased From: Kelly's Sweets and Greets

Cost: $120

Thoughts: I expected Eragon to be my first from 2026, but no, surprise! It's Granville. This is a character I liked but didn't preorder, and I'm glad I went that way, because it was hard finding one with just the right face. Then I spotted this one and it was a must have situation. Granville is super soft and cuddly, and I love the colors so much.

EGLIN

Arrival Date: 4/2/26

Size: 17"

Year: 2025  

Designer: Isabelle Lee 

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $227.50

Thoughts: Eglin arrived a couple weeks ago. I adore him. He's very unique, being the only wyvern so far. Wyverns have no front legs, as their "hands" are part of their wings. Eglin also has a wyvern's barbed tail. As with all the dragons, he's very soft. Last year's were especially cuddly. I like the longer, softer tails a lot. Eglin wraps up my 2025 preorders, so now I'm just waiting on my first from 2026.

KEYLIME PIE

Arrival Date: 3/14/26

Size: 12.5"

Year: 2025  

Designer: Isabelle Lee 

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: Free with rewards (Retail $90)

Thoughts: I knew I wanted Keylime Pie when I saw her photos from Australia, so it was just a matter of waiting for Valerie to put up her photos. I had the rewards points all ready to go, so she only cost me $10 for shipping. She is little and adorable. I love her eyes and her head tilt. Her fur is very unique, aside from being that bright green, because it's such an odd texture. It reminds me of mohair without being mohair. Love her!

FELDSPAR

 

Arrival Date: 3/7/26

Size: 17"

Year: 2025 Signature Collection

Edition Size: 2000 (Mine is #382.) 

Designer: Isabelle Lee 

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $220

Thoughts: Feldspar finally landed in the US and we're getting Eglin soon, so my 2025 preorders will finally be done then! Feldspar is supposed to be more like a gargoyle, which I sort of see compared to the other dragons, but I still really only see a dragon variant. The actual plush gargoyles are my gargoyles. Feldspar is stunning though. I love the little teeth, thick horns and the ridge of spines down his back. I am honestly kind of tired of this mushroom-colored tyber that they've been using for years, but I love him to pieces, so one more in this shade is fine by me. But probably no more after him!

RUBY ROO


Arrival Date: 2/17/26

Size: 13" officially. Definitely taller in hand. Her legs are long!

Year: 2026

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: CB Direct

Cost: $55

Thoughts: Ruby was a pretty good contender for a top fave, but I was disappointed when I pulled her out. She's the only one without the round black nose, which makes her a little more monstery and less cutesy. But only one of the nostrils on mine showed! I had to trim the fur with scissors to make the other visible. Now that she's got a definitely nose, she's much cuter. She's a big girl, too. 13 inches, my ass. Maybe 13" seated! I'm expecting her to be a great cuddler like Amethyst. 

TOPAZ BLU


Arrival Date: 2/17/26

Size: 10.5"

Year: 2026

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: CB Direct

Cost: $47.50

Thoughts: Okay, honestly, this one is my least favorite, but she immediately grabbed Bedrock the ogre's hand and Bedrock is one of my surprise loves from the previous series. So Topaz may end up on equal par with the other girls yet. 

EMERALD LOU


Arrival Date: 2/17/26

Size: 9.5"

Year: 2026

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: CB Direct

Cost: $45

Thoughts: I love Emmy Lou more than I expected to. She's not much bigger than Sapphire and her legs are also pretty much permanently seated. Her colors though! It's interesting that they only went with green accents on her even though she's Emerald. I like the peach hair and ears and toes. I think she's the only one with thumbs! Each one has different hands and feet. 

SAPPHIRE SUE


Arrival Date: 2/17/26

Size: 8"

Year: 2026

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: CB Direct

Cost: $40

Thoughts: If there was going to be one I would have guessed as my fave, it would be Sapphire because I'm a September kid and that's my birthstone. I love her coloring and her little face. The main issue with the faces on these is that their plush can obscure some of the features. Sapphire's smile shows clearly on her right side, but not so much on the left. She looks very mischievous though and of course I'm here for that. She's the smallest of the bunch, which makes her actually the least cuddly. I like them a little bit bigger than she is and the smaller ones from this series are almost stuck in a seated position. Her legs don't flop down like Amethyst's or Ruby's. But that aside, she definitely still is cuddly and I love her. She's just not my clear favorite in person.
