Are they so certain they'll pre-sell out that they're not even going to show us what's coming?
Build-a-Bear x Animal Crossing is all but guaranteed to be a success. If it isn't, it'll be one of those "how did you fuck this up" moments.Right? They have a confidence about this that feels unearned. Maybe they have focus groups already know.

My biggest fear is that the selection will just be a variation on the few iconic characters like Isabelle and Tom Nook

Feels like it'll be the digital version of this (BaB doesn't have the best ideas :x)
Build-A-Bear halts 'Pay Your Age' sale as hundreds in metro Phoenix wait in line
Build-A-Bear's "Pay Your Age" sale ended nationwide before the stores opened in metro Phoenix, but at least one location was still taking customers.www.usatoday.com
Since they've had so long to get this prepped hopefully it's not a similar issue.
Ideally they would have posted photos and opened up preorders months ago and just done them made to order + some extras for the stores...
It just seems very messy to hold an order at all, with essentially showing a box with a question mark on it :/ Good luck to those that want one but well, keep expectations in check, just from my experience.
It's just these two?Sales go live in about 30 min.

Choose between Isabelle or Tom Nook w/New Horizons outfit and a soundbox featuring the New Horizons theme or Phrases.
Figured it'd be those two. Tempting but they get so much merch otherwise already. Have to think if I want to jump on this. They really got their designs right which is nice.Sales go live in about 30 min.

Hah yeah now that you mention. I think I just had really low expectations knowing some other BAB collabs (thinking of chunky sonic)Isabelle looks a little off. Like she's a shrunken down costume from Super Nintendo World.

Might just get Nook boy and modify his outfit with the OG apron.

That would be nice, but wouldn't assume any particular character. Could just be assigned keywords in their search system that someone put in (do something similar at my job).at least there's hope they'll add more later
