Updates and news on delivery of anniversary snuffles

Due to some manufacturing issues, it appears that the new anniversary snuffles will not be delivered until later in August 2010.

The 15' snuffles is really big according to a Gund Rep.

The limited edition "white" snuffles is not as pronounced as in the picture and is silver tipped.

The upcoming Christmas snuffles is not 16', but 8' which explains the rather low price compared to the large snuffles.

I am excited and eagerly waiting to receive the new snuffles.

Two different kinds of Millenium snuffles?

I noticed that the two 30 inch millenium snuffles I have appear to have very different kinds of fur. One has shorter fur than the other. The other has fur that looks kind of like it was never combed.

The snuffles on the left came from FAO Schwartz, I still have his tags. The other one came without tags.

I wonder if this has anything to do with where they were sold, or if one is a mistake during the production process? Well, take a look at the photo and see for yourself. Any comments?

Snuffles' 30th birthday coming up!

Snuffles' 30th birthday is coming up soon. And there will be a few beautiful new anniversary snuffles coming. Delivery should start soon, probably in June or July as it looks. Will post photos of the real ones as soon as I get them. I am excited, the stock photos look very beautiful already as you have seen a couple months ago. Stay tuned...

Snuffles taken from Pogs to use as wallpaper

Snuffles is virtually everywhere, even on pogs

Today, Jan sent these photos to me of Snuffles on a pog. I never heard of pogs, but I have not been born nor raised in the United States. When I moved to the US, I was already the age of a Grad student. Anyhow, I think this is something new and cool. And, for those who don't know what pogs are, just click here to learn more. How to start a pog collection?
Snuffles really is full of surprises...
