KidWayne he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) I loved the gag in SoS where the broadsheets advertise "Soonie Pups" and how it obviously aggravates/embarrasses TenSoon that they make stuffed toys based on his historical exploits as Vin's bodyguard wolfhound. Here's the thing: I want one. (See the attached image if you aren't sure what I'm talking about)Would anyone else be interested in purchasing one if I could get Sanderson & Co. to have a custom stuft animal made?I found a company that will make individual custom stuft animals for $80, but [a] I'm worried about copyright issues and $80 is a lot for a single stuffed animal. I'll make the pitch to the folks at Sanderson & Co. if there is sufficient interest. Edited October 29, 2015 by KidWayne 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMistborn he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I would, only if they also made some Chull plushies! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaymyth she/her Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Should the Sanderson store decide to create these, I predict many, many Sharders (including myself) crying out as one voice: "Shut up and take my money!" 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeiryWriter he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 People have asked Brandon about whether he will make some, but he's said that it would would be a lot more expensive to do than t-shirts are. Also if he does do them he wants to make them reverseable so that one way it's a dog and you can turn it inside out so that it looks like a mistwraith, and then there need to be spikes to go with it. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so that seems like Brandon's saying "no." Again, I did the research and a simple version of the toy purchased in bulk - say an order of 500 - could easily make a handy profit with an MSRP of $25. Especially if he rolled it out with the release of Bands of Mourning. I mean, this could easily help increase his reader base, increase fan loyalty, and make Kaymyth's day, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMistborn he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 If they did, they should release them on Koloss head-munching day 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidWayne he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Well either way let's see if we can change his mind. Everyone who wants one of these things leave a reply and we can use this post to prove there's enough demand to have Brandon place an order! ...or license them to me or someone else who will have them made (assuming he's still willing to sell them on his web store). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argent he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I don't think if there is a need to change his mind. When I heard somebody at the Chicago signing talk with him about it, it really sounded like he would like to get those things done. Just not as regular plushies, he wants the whole two-sided plush thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) I would like the reversable one, purely as a Mistwraith/Kandra plushie would be storming cute...like Starfire and Silky *_* So yes, my answer is "Shut up and storming take my broams already!"

ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 That would be boxings. Or notes. The cuteness of the soonie pups knows no bounds. It will spread beyond the three realms and even the Cosmere! Shardworlds cry out in unison for sellers to shush and accept their monetary currencies. The cuteness of TenSoon will unite the Cosmere! ...and that's enough of that. The Cosmere has enough Deity Figures 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinxer he/him Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 This is wonderful news. I never would've considered the reversible thing possible, but once again (as so often in his fiction) Sanderson has one-upped our expectations. For the record, this is total support for reversible soonie pups. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMistborn he/him Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 The question now is how do we get lord Sanderson to see our desperate desire for the great soonie pups and produce them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaa he/him Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 The question now is how do we get lord Sanderson to see our desperate desire for the great soonie pups and produce them? I'm sure Lord Sanderson's evil henchman, Ookla the Mok, a.k.a. Peter Ahlstrom, will tell him about it. He often goes around these parts in search of stuff to amuse his master. As for Soonie Pups, I can imagine kids terrorizing their sisters by turning a cute stuffed toy into a horrible monstrosity. Or maybe that would backfire as the intended victims end up actually loving the stuffed kandra. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, given the tendency of the Mistborn novels to produce strong female characters, the other way around. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soother he/him Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I'll take two... I have crates of clips to pay for them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaa he/him Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 I figured I might actually buy one of these. When I have attractive female visitors I could put it in puppy mode, otherwise it's in mistwraith mode. If a girl gives me crap for having a stuffed toy in my apartment, I'll invert it and see what she thinks of that. Perfect plan! Now I just need to have visitors in the first place. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
