Biscuit Plushie?
hey, and sorry if you already got notification on the discord!
important question: How interested would you guys be in a Biscuit plushie?
I contacted https://www.makeship.com/, and it’s actually possible to make one if there’s enough interest. they’re very experienced with this kind of thing and have run campaigns for bigger creators like artists, vtubers, youtubers, streamers, etc. you can check out their past campaigns on their website
more importantly, the price? - around 30 USD for the plushie and about 9 USD for shipping (supposedly worldwide). delivery price might change depending on the region
it’s not cheap, but I plan to ask them if it’s possible to completely remove my “cut” to make the price lower. I want to do this because I think it would be cool af
how would it work?
1. there would be a preorder campaign where https://www.makeship.com/ asks people to pay 2 USD upfront, mostly to gauge interest
if ppl aren’t willing to pay 2 USD, there’s a low chance they would order the plush anyway, and makeship probably doesn’t want to invest time into something that won’t happen
2. if there are 200 preorders, it’s considered a success and them and I would work together on the design of the plush
3. once the design is done, there would be a full campaign that needs 200 people to place an actual order (30 USD + delivery)
4. if 200 orders are made, the plush goes into production and will be shipped out in a few weeks or months (probably)
let me know if you would be interested - if I think there are enough people I will contact makeship again so we can try!
I’ll put a poll below. please choose an option only if you're genuinely interested. Thank you!

Keep your cut and ill buy one
I would love one if it’s not just a plain corgi (cute as they all are) but has some magical signs unique to this series to signify it is indeed Biscuit
How is it different from a corgi plushie?
take my money
Im willing to get 3
Depends on the size of the plushie tbh
Cheers finally
I'm sorry, I just don't care about plushies.
I want tiny antlers and puppy Biscuit. Exchange rate puts it at $60AUD, but I’ll commit to it because it sounds amazing
Take all my dollarey doos!!! 💰 Double for a noodle plushie
I hope he has some mana arms.
I'm very tempted and probably wouldn't be the weirdest thing I've bought online. But.... how about those that buy get a novella from Biscuits POV from sometime in the past tutorial?

How much for a autographed plushie, may be too pricey since mirec is in Europe.
I am way too poor for that.
I mean maybe this is a premature question? I'm sure there is interest, but $40 is a lot for a plush. If there is some concept art involved on how it would roughly look I would have a better understanding to the inclination to do so! Edit: I did vote yes since the couch kitty could use a buddy.
yup, it is a lot, but i guess its that expensive when they need to make profit, design the custom plushie and all in smaller numbers that do not take advantage of economy of scale (or how it is called) for them to send their designers my way we would need to have 200 preorders (2 USD each) - this is the next step
Only if the plushie was more than a standard corgi plushie. I want purple tentacles corgis plushie
for sure! just corgie plush is not enough
Go for it either way. It's zero risk on everyone's part.
I've ordered a few Plush's from them before, zero complaints. I've also helped run a plush campaign for an artist/vtuber's oc. Makeship was great to work with.
Ehh, Idk about a plushie. I dont like stuff like that because it usually collects dust. So its a no from me. Or its just my ascetic part talking here. Perhaps something more practical?
I need a biscuit plushi
Is it possible to get a concept sketch first? Will he just have horns or will there be tentacles too?
I think I would need 200 (2 USD) preorders and only then would makeship work with me on the design. It makes sense - why would you make your design ppl work with someone who might not sell required number or plushies
What happens to the $2 if there isn't enough interest? Does the $2 come off the $30 total if there is enough interest?
this is what they say! Making a pledge means you pay $2.00 now and we'll charge the remaining $27.99 (+ shipping and tax) when the product launches 1-4 months. If the petition fails, you'll get a refund.
I voted Yes on the assumption it would have tentacles and antlers. If it doesn't, I would not buy it (i could buy any corgi plush)
On one end, i'm not enough of a dog person to entertain corgi plushies. On the other end, last week i met a corgi being walked and, as i saw it strut around on the sidewalk, i couldn't help but smile as i imagined it with with stubby fuzzy horns and asking for sustenance.
I dont consider 39 to be egregious imo. Getting three burritos and a qusadilla from taco bell is almost as much, and people do that weekly XD
Burritos are tasty though, unlike plush that gonna just collect dust on some shelf for eternity Its not that much(unless you not in us), but its just not really worth it imo
Only if you add 10 chappies advance. You’ve been making cliffhangers every damn thursday for some time now, Cerim. You’re making more readers into HDT addicts
are you trying to blackmail me?! its you guys who said in comments im not cliffing that often on thursdays. so ofc i had to prove you wrong. i still havent lost it
HADWIN PLUSHIE!
Each half sold separately
I want a noodle and minion plushie too!!
My vote is a no for a normal corgi, but if our future absolute has purple tentacles and/or antlers it would be a yes from me
Same
Hopefully they can do more than 200 lol
Interest level of -1
Need some plushie tentacles in my life
Does the shipping cover current tariffs in the US? If not it would be good to let people know about it up front. I recently had to pay duty fees for something I pre-ordered and it made the whole purchase a lot less worth it.
this is what they say: We’ve made a small update to the shipping price for U.S. customers to reflect new international trade policies and rising import tariffs. If you placed an order before We’ve already absorbed the vast majority of the cost ourselves—and only made this change to ensure we can keep delivering the high-quality, creator-driven products you love. We’re watching the situation closely and will reduce this cost the moment we’re able to. Until then, thank you for your continued support. You’re what makes this community so special 💜 also: We ship worldwide, and delivery costs vary according to the size of the product and shipping destination. In general, here’s how shipping fees are calculated: Normal-Size Plushie: Shipping rates start at $8.99, with a discounted shipping fee of $3.99 for each additional plushie. and To confirm shipping costs and check if we ship to your location, you can add a product to your cart, select "Checkout" and enter your address on the checkout page. Don't worry! You will not be forced into making a purchase.
Idk, why can't you send a real Biscuit to everyone?
i dont think you can send corgi in mail
Like others, a tentative yes. Depends on the design.
Question. How biscuit would this plushie be? Would it have tentacles? Would it have some sort of voice modulator saying things like "food" and "asshole"? Would it be identifiable from other goodest boys out there?
oh, voice modulator would be too much, but something like tentacles or antlers should be possible!
I love biscuit but how would this be different from any other corgi plushie?
it should be possible to ask them to add something. maybe clothes, tentacles, tiny antlers, things like that
I will put no only because I live in Brazil and it's going to be too expensive here. If I were in the us definitely yes.
WHAAAAAAT?! CUTENESS OVERLOAD!
If you dump 5 chapters like you did before Christmas, I’ll buy a plushie
We got a dealmaker here XD i support.
Am down for having my own biscuit pal 👌🏻
Go to an animal shelter and find a biscuit. Then make him the official mascot. Also, I would be 100% down for a biscuit plushy.
It depends on what it’ll look like. I’ve seen a few plushies released from a few other authors and they usually look like the crap you get from a claw machine
you can check the website for the past campaigns. i wouldnt expect anything hyper custom, but they have some really nice ones
Anybody who chooses no ain't a good FOOD!
