Really super excited for this shipment, all of these plush are ones I have been wanting for some time. I’ve been really wanting the new Mega Absol since I saw its original release pics, and the others I had missed their initial release and they only now finally restocked! This honestly feels sorta like a long time coming for most of these lol, ESPECIALLY Zorua!

One complaint tho, these plush have several [loose threads](https://imgur.com/a/yeY3bLr) (mainly Zorua tho).

Lots of new additions to my collection this week! The Bingo prizes were all donated, and when I picked these guys up I felt they were wet. I believe the previous owners tried to clean them which I respect them for, but I didn’t fully trust the drying process on such big plush. So, I opened them up.

They were wet all the way to the middle, so I put all the stuffing in front of a fan, then gave the fabric an extra wash on an old-fashioned washboard. I’m glad I did, as the water I dumped out after was yellowish brown. I used lukewarm water and some Zote laundry soap btw. I then rinsed them a couple times then put them in front of the fan to dry overnight too.

Finally, this morning I restuffed them then closed them with a ladder stitch. This was actually my first time doing a ladder stitch and I gotta say, it is super easy and satisfying!

Pretty disappointed that they didn’t release the Japanese version, will likely buy that at some point. The plush is good… for a 2013 plush. Its a bit smaller then expected, and the felt texture bugs me. It’s lightly stuffed which I quite like, since I think modern plush can be quite overstuffed at times. Even though it is covered, it still has its second eye underneath the fur, which is a neat detail. I think I will still keep it, and get the better one from JP, and make this one a travel buddy where they may get dirty.

It’s a pretty good bootleg plush! Of course, still a bit wonky as you can tell by the claws, and the proportions are a little wacky, but overall I love it!! Had to get a bootleg Houndoominite to go with it of course 👀
