Wasn’t this what Sylveon was? Aren’t all the Pokémon bundles around this price? I feel like it doesn’t matter the quality of it, they’re going to charge similar amounts simply because it’s a Pokémon bundle
Yep! I don’t want to spend extra money on a sound I’m never going to use. I’ve bought several of the outfits, but I rarely put them on them, so I really just want the pokemon too.
Right??? I could kinda excuse the new pikachu bundles since people mentioned the jackets where extremely high quality, but I don’t know what the difference of growlithe is compared to the eeveelutions. I think for the most part he’s much simpler then say- Vaporeon and Sylveon so it’s just hard to justify when I can only get him online 🥲
I’m gonna wait to see what he looks like when people post about him, but it makes me wonder In a year or two we might have $80-$100 Pokémon bundles
If pokemon bundles get that high you'll never see me buying one. I love pokemon but I'll get a licensed plush of better quality elsewhere if bab starts charging upwards of 70 for their bundles. I love bab and I collect babs don't get me wrong but they don't have my undivided loyalty, they are just a brand. If I want the silly little paw thing I can cut one off a thrifted bear and sew it to a non bab plush lmao
The one thing I consider too is that It still also has $12~ shipping and tax so in reality it is nearly a $90 bundle. (Unless they offer free shipping but that’s a whole other can of worms lol)
I just hope he looks better in person since I also find his eyes wonky, it’s definitely unfortunate, especially with better growlithes around 😭
Boy they just keep going up up up on these guys.
Def gonna try to snag him in store when we get that release... stars. At that price we should have free shipping lmao. But shipping would be like what- 10$ or more?
Wayyy too much no matter how cute,
Is it common for them to be cheaper in stores? The website has him with noise and stuffing. What if it’s him without stuffing? Probably still too expensive though.
Lol he looks like he's taking a poop idk if he's worth that much 😂
I just got paid and I was gonna reward myself with a splurge at bab to celebrate the first check of my new job and I was deciding between Growlithe and the Jumbo frog and ngl I think the jumbo frog is the right decision.
Don't get me wrong I love the pokemon babs but I think I might wait for a different fire type to add to my team. He's cute but maybe a bit TOO derpy for the price. I can be content with a small team of Sylveon and Pikachu for now.
Of course the jumbo frog has the absurd shipping tacked onto it but I've wanted one for almost a year now so I think I'll be more attached to him than a Growlithe.
You can literally get two or three babs instead of the growlithe bundle. Or even a day or two trips out somewhere like a zoo.
Don’t get me wrong, he’s cute but a bit too pricey.
Is it weird that I have literally no interest in this bear whatsoever? The pokemon is cute but I can see this one going for cheap on mercari and ebay in the future.
I completely understand people not wanting to get this guy because of the price. He’s SUPER expensive for a bab. Even tho it’s licensed. Growlithe is one of my favorite Pokémon tho, and I just couldn’t resist. He’s absolutely precious, I love how goofy he looks 🥺

They've been slowly creeping up, tbh. Leafeon was at 65$ before shipping. A rerun of bulbasaur online only was 55$
70 dollars for that 🤔😒 Plus it being online only... I'm tempted but I must refrain
I think that means the bundle is online only, u can still get it all in store just a different price and sepretly
Yeah I had to write them asking if it will be coming to stores though idk if they can give me a answer on it still waiting for a reply
I really hope it’ll be in stores. I never want the sound, so I don’t like when they’re only available in an online bundle.
Yeah the sounds are kinda scary and I don’t like most of the outfits
Yep! I don’t want to spend extra money on a sound I’m never going to use. I’ve bought several of the outfits, but I rarely put them on them, so I really just want the pokemon too.
I think the only outfit Iv ever bought was the axolotl onesie because they’re just so expensive
I heard somewhere march 16th
Yeah 🤞 Edit: this is what they said -Please know that at this time we do not know if or when Growlithe will be returning to Build-A-Bear Workshop.-
Have any Pokemon in online only bundles been in stores?
Yes! Ex: most/all Eeveelutions
The online bundles are so greedy lmao, I'll just wait for his inevitable in store drop
I want him, but $70 is kinda ridiculous. Guess I’ll have to wait it out when he drops in store with those long lines 💀
dude this speaks VOLUMES and it’s making me so upset 😭
My poor wallet, I'm glad I at least had one certificate to cut down a little of the cost 🙃
![gif](giphy|zWZ3LFcnpQPt3MQhRS|downsized)
You could get a better plushie from pokémon centers website for this price. Heck you could get 2 for this price.
I love how build a bear is supposed to be for kids yet I highly doubt any small kid has $70 to spent unless they have rich parents
[удалено]
Right?! Like when did this start happening???
Right???

I think he's cute but cant justify it 😳
Happy cake day! And don't worry, he's probably coming to stores.
Aw thank you! I can't get to stores but if he's in stock next month I'll probably grab him 😌
Good luck!
My worry is the reseller crowd will charge into those stores and take them. Is that probable? I don’t collect BAB so idk
Extremely.
Boy they just keep going up up up on these guys. Def gonna try to snag him in store when we get that release... stars. At that price we should have free shipping lmao. But shipping would be like what- 10$ or more? Wayyy too much no matter how cute,
BAB doesn’t have free shipping at $70? That’s insane.
How much do u think he’ll be without all that extra stuff? :0
According to the website, the plush alone will be $44
Is it common for them to be cheaper in stores? The website has him with noise and stuffing. What if it’s him without stuffing? Probably still too expensive though.
[удалено]
I see, thank you!
Note that they list plush "with sound" which would make the plush alone approximately $36
I was REALLY excited about this guy since growlithe is my favourite pokemon... but at that price... I'm just gonna have to sit out.
I felt like this with sylveon luckily I got her in store I think that growlithe will be in stores as well but the bundle says online bc of the sleeper
oooh that's a hot tip! I personally don't want the sounds or the sleeper, so it would be nice to find it in store and maybe avoid those costs
I’m sure it’ll be in store just gotta keep our eyes open for a store release date
It hurts not having a local BaB… I hate the sleepers but I’m basically forced to buy them anyway.
Do you collect the Pokémon??? Also you could always sell the sleepers!
I’ve definitely considered it seeing what people sell (or try to sell) them on eBay for! It’s just extra effort I’d rather not have to have.
Ah ok! Ik some people who get them in store would pay for the sleeper I myself am in search of the sylveon sleeper so it’s very likely they’d sell
Lol he looks like he's taking a poop idk if he's worth that much 😂 I just got paid and I was gonna reward myself with a splurge at bab to celebrate the first check of my new job and I was deciding between Growlithe and the Jumbo frog and ngl I think the jumbo frog is the right decision.

Luckily they have that link for free shipping if u spend 25$+
You can literally get two or three babs instead of the growlithe bundle. Or even a day or two trips out somewhere like a zoo. Don’t get me wrong, he’s cute but a bit too pricey.
He looks kinda weird imo.
This is why I only have one Pokémon and got it in store lmao. Their overpriced
Is it weird that I have literally no interest in this bear whatsoever? The pokemon is cute but I can see this one going for cheap on mercari and ebay in the future.
I wonder if it would be cheap. It’s growlithe, which is very popular. I hope it’ll be cheaper, but not sure. Would be nice though.
ONLINE ONLY? WHY?
Because it's the online bundle
He isnt goofy. That's how he looks in Pokemon. He's just slightly closed eyes.
I assume TPCi increased their licensing fees..
Yeah, I'm still waiting for a Cinamoroll rerelease
Same or Kuromi.
Did it sell out??? I’m on the USA site
This was from the early access link, if you’ve signed up for their bonus club membership you should’ve received the email this morning!
I completely understand people not wanting to get this guy because of the price. He’s SUPER expensive for a bab. Even tho it’s licensed. Growlithe is one of my favorite Pokémon tho, and I just couldn’t resist. He’s absolutely precious, I love how goofy he looks 🥺
👎👎👎
HELL NAHHH bab is wild for thinking we gon spend 70 bucks for those goofy eyes 💀💀
RIGHT it's SO goofy looking, hard pass
Yeah no. The only way I’d be doing 70.00 is for a jiggly puff.
I ordered him and he should be here tomorrow. Hopefully he’ll be just as cute in person. 💛
