Has everyone been waiting on preorders from stores or from 4DE's site itself? It's possible that stores and distributors have jumped the gun in the past.

If everybody's waiting for preorders direct from 4DE, then that's a real shame and they should be doing much more to manage their customers' expectations.

Who would've thought that BaB's Muffins plush would come out before 4DE's?

I don't know if "moving on" to other plush is going to put a dent in 4DE's bottom line, really. I have a pile of Muffins plush and there's always room for one more!

Hoping they're not more miniatures, but worried that they will be.

That Funko pony is Daring Do! She's a Mystery Mini pony with the standard black coloration. I'm not sure what the going rate is on it, though.

I don't know about kittens this young, but I had an older kitten with fleas once. It was terrible! (Special thanks to the veterinary office they came from... Poor thing was just back from a spay.) Chances are that you'll be fighting fleas on more than just the baby kitties, even if they are isolated. :(

We combed her with a flea comb a few times a day, keeping a bowl of water mixed with dish soap nearby to dunk the comb in after each stroke to remove the fleas that stuck to it. The dish soap breaks the surface tension of the water, drowning most fleas that touch it. They sink to the bottom. I think Dawn baths work on the same principle.

We also treated all the rugs in our apartment with a crystal / powder flea killing stuff that we got at the pet store. I think this worked by deforming the shells of young fleas so they wouldn't survive as they bred.

Linens and whatnot were treated with salt. It's the same principle but doesn't work as well as the harsher carpet stuff.

You should definitely treat your other pets with Advantage if you haven't and if they're old enough!

eBay is the safer way to do it. It gives you records, a clear paper trail, and all that good stuff, plus that feedback you're looking for.

You're also likely to make a lot more money if you sell them one by one and name your auctions right. It's extra work for sure, and eBay/PayPal will take their cuts, but you'll likely still come out ahead. It sounds like you have some really desirable things, and it would be a shame to sell them short!

This posting has certainly captured everybody's imagination!

I think a lot of people are seeing in it what they want to see, however. They want you to live and breathe the brand for sure, but this position does not sound like one that generates creative ideas. It appears instead to be a position focused on working with the creative team, picking the ideas that stick, and making a case for them to the powers-that-be in the interest of keeping the brand in a relevant direction.

What an exciting posting! I wonder what it would be like to work on this level for one of Hasbro's brands.

I wouldn't get too excited about the mention of a Brand Bible. I suspect that such a thing is kind of a living, breathing document that adapts along with a brand. Just because there's mention of it doesn't necessarily mean that G5 is on its way.

They probably have lots of orders to got through! The site was crazy slow when it all went live.

Does anybody have a good picture of Chicken Pie from the front? I'm so curious about those eyes!

I don't think a date has been set, but I'm also waiting anxiously!

I really got my hopes up over Muffins, too!

I wonder if the comic book stores jumped the gun on preorders?

You could wait and see if Captain Falcon gets a restock! We've been seeing restocks of lots of things we thought we'd never see again. :)

This is such a beautiful custom! I love the detail in the sculpting so much. I think the grit and oil really gave it a great finishing touch.

This is so sad. :(
