YETI

Arrival Date: 4/25/25

Size: 24"

Year: 2024 

Edition Size: 1000 (Mine is #571.) 

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $273

Thoughts: Ah, the biggest guy is finally here! Yeti is a whopping two feet tall, four inches taller than Bodmin. He's got the cutest little round ears and I love his expression. Like Bod, he's really not that hard to cuddle, despite his size. 

RAMBLE

Arrival Date: 4/14/25

Size: 14.5"

Year: 2024

Designer: Isabelle Lee

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $139

Thoughts: Ramble is the other missing 2024 character I had left. (The last is Woozy, the dodo from 2023.) He's a Pyrenean ibex. His horns are really long, which you can kind of infer from the photo. He looks exactly like his prototype and he's gorgeous, but again, not the most cuddly, but with those horns, I didn't expect him to be. Like Pathfinder, his fur is rougher. Still, he's got a very cute face. 

PATHFINDER

Arrival Date: 4/14/25

Size: 14.5"

Year: 2024

Designer: Isabelle Lee

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $133

Thoughts: Pathfinder is one of the last three Bearhouse I've been waiting on. He's from 2024. He's a thylacine or tasmanian tiger. I have mixed feelings on him. I wish they'd done the faces like the prototype. The nose seemed longer or at least the dark shading on the muzzle made it appear longer. That helped him look more like a thylacine. He does have the stripes, though they don't show here. He's very cute, but he definitely could have looked more like the real animal. He's also sadly not very cuddly. His fur is more rough and his head is oddly hard, so he's not great for hugs. I'm still glad to have him, but he's not an ideal Bearhouse offering.  

SPADES

Arrival Date: 4/12/25

Size: 12.5"

Year: 2025

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: CB Direct

Cost: $62.50

Thoughts: Spades is the last of the Bearhouse dragons I was interested in. I grabbed him when we got them in the US. He went on a little surprise journey, because his tracking never updated until the end. He was "label created" for a week and then all of a sudden in Greenville and arrived the next day. He's taller than Clubs but shorter than Deck. Love his color, but his main draw is those two little fangs.  

EARTH ELF

Arrival Date: 3/31/25

Size: 11"

Year: 2025

Designer: Alison Mills

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $100

Thoughts: This tiny guy is my first of the 2025 collection. (Not counting the Bearhouse dragons!) He's adorable, lightweight, fits in the palm of my hand, and he's super soft. Definite Mogwai vibes. I love him.
