Plushtoid has arrived! photo

[Awesome community member, forum moderator, and toy designer/creator Zodiac Eclipse has made these incredible plush Mr. Destructoid heads! If you want one (or any of the other awesome toys she and her husband create), head on over to her store's website and check them out! -- JRo]

Greetings community! As most of you are aware I'm "officially" a stay-at-home mom (insert motherhood jokes here), but as only a few of you know I also run a home business on the side making and selling handmade toys. Christmas was mighty busy at the Eclipse Household, but now that we've put the mad rush behind us I finally have time to sit down and make things for fun again. Here's where you guys come in.

I'd like to introduce you to Plushtoid, a cuddly soft stuffed version of our beloved Destructoid helmet. Plushtoid is about 4.25 inches on all sides and completely handmade by me from fleece with felt details. I've got a handful of these ready to go with more on the way if enough people are interested.
 
You can order one today over at my business site Story Builder Toys for $15 plus shipping. Before anyone gets out their pitchfork, yes I will ship worldwide so long as the buyer assumes responsibility for all shipping and postal fees. I really just want to get as many of these out to Dtoiders as possible as a way of doing something fun for the community that has done so much for me.

Special thanks to Mix for giving me the idea and super special thanks to Niero for letting me use his mascot to pimp my plushie skills. Much love guys!

Those are adorable! If I could afford to make any more overseas orders I would be all over this.

Great job.

Also, for your next plushie, I think you need to do a bearded samurai. I'll shoot you my address when you finish with that. :)

@Jimbo - Of course, you'll be supplying the chin clippings (for a truly authentic plushie experience), right? ;)

Saturday just arrived my brand New Dtoid shirt, it took like a month to get here but it was worth it. NOw you have plushies? I got my room full of those, but I guess there will be space of one more family member to hug to DEATH.

Also, it comes with Mother Love included <3

What Epic said. A plushie Mr. Destructoid helmet would be insanely awesome. I guess I'll have to do with a plushie that is only rediculously awesome :)

Seriously, good job. I'll definitely be picking one up.

Hey guys, big thanks to everyone who has or is planning to order. We've still got plenty left and enough material to make more should we happen to run out so don't be shy about placing your orders today, tomorrow, or whenever.

I can't afford $15, and likely would not spend it on a plushie if I could. these look nice, though!

Also first negative post

@Zodiac Eclipse

Any chance of a companion cube plushie or might you already have/be able to make one of those?

Either way, DO WANT and will buy this! AWESOME SKILLS!!

I have my Plushtoid in my hands right now, and it is adorably awesome. If you don't buy one of these, I'm afraid I'm simply going to have to think less of you as a human being.

I was thinking about getting a companion cube. The companion cube can now go fuck itself. I want this as my companion cube. Once I gather the funds, expect a purchase.

nice!!!
Should make a version that goes over my tissue box. I hate the pastel and girlie designs. (No offense.) I'd rather see the good ole robot head next to my tv.

@Mrdraven, I actually want to make a companion cube for myself one of these days, but never find time. There are plenty of people on Etsy who do make them though, if you just can't wait indefinitely.

@Everyone Else, Thanks you all rock and I'm already starting another batch ;)
