Title: Any ideas where I can buy it? Can't find it any places.
Post by: Sebby Michelango on May 14, 2016, 11:15:10 AM
Any ideas where I can buy stuffed animals like these? I've googled much, but can't find any results. The moomin was a gift from somebody, therefor I have no idea where I can buy these like her.
I have a stuffed animal, but it begin to get a bit worn. I would still keep her, but I want a newer one. I don't want to make her more worn than what she is now. A few friends of me says I should "pension" her. But that's not easy. Even though I'm a teenager, I still likes to have stuffed animals, especially moomins.

Ebay...I saw several current auctions for different sizes, colors, etc.

Prices range from $10-$40 USD.

Link, please?
I want one that is the same type as that one I has now. She should have the same appearance, fur etc.
I hope for one stuffed animal that looks like that one at the picture.

You might have a look at a few shops.

http://shop.moomin.com/collections/toys

Names are listed there. You then could either consider the shops or start to look on ebay.

It may even be possible there are shops close to you so you could fetch it.

Not stuffed animals like this one. I have also one of these, but it's not the right thing for me. I prefer some types more than others. I'm very picky.

Web address for EBay is www.ebay.com .

Once there, type "moomins" or "moomins plush" into the search field, and you'll get a fairly large selection.

You mentioned you're "very picky", so it's best if you look at the selection yourself.

If you are picky it may be necessary to look through a few places.

You might look if there is some kind of writing on your moomin to indicate some manufacturer or a year or similar.
This could provide details for a search on ebay,

You may look on ebay for a few days then, and on an international search.

Well all in all its like house shoes. They are best when they are old but they fade one day.
So another possibility would be to look for a new one and break it in, make it used over time.
It may even be different from the other one but it may give a kind of similar feeling.
Maybe the feeling will be different but you may like it just as well.
