>>9714876I had a few build a bears when I was younger but I thought they were for girls and younger kids so I didn't get too into them. I was an action figure kid. Ironically I'm now way more into plushies than figures. I got really into them when I was like 15. I am still self conscious about it especially since my favorite ones are girly ones but it's just that they're the ones I find cute and remind me of my girlfriend.
I'm happy you can enjoy them now. Do you prefer characters you know about or do you just go for anything soft? I'm definitely the latter option.
>>9715129Yeah I get that. 99% of the time it's garbage but I've found some really good stuff there. You just have to go often. One of my favorite finds was this scooby doo in the picture. It's really big and well stuffed so I can cuddle it tight without worrying about its condition. It's actually older than me but it's in great shape.
