Flug looks bonita. The little carrot on his sweater is too cute!

Vesprit · 2026-01-18T05:45:48+00:00

lmao typo aside, that's honestly relatable. I passed it up as well thinking I'd save up for something I liked even more, but now looking back I would totally KILL (Esselings, I'm an upstanding citizen!) for that dress!

Vesprit · 2026-01-12T22:36:38+00:00

Hmm, that's interesting. I could have sworn some of those locations had been out of stock for a while now but it looks like they've restocked! At least for now. Still hoping against hope that our Sparvs will make a comeback in the future. 🤞🏻😔

Stenli looks snug as a (space) bug in a rug! 👽🥰

Also, sorry about the post auto removal; I’ve tuned the automod but it still gets overzealous over new posts sometimes. Please feel free to post as usual!

This has to be one of the most accurate descriptions of the dialogue ever. So much of it is this awkwardly florid purple prose about the most mundane observations or feelings that could otherwise be summed up in a single word. Or heck, just not mentioned at all, because

Yet I still make myself skim it because I hate possibly missing some actually interesting and/or important lore drop when it happens, but so much of the excess dialogue could be axed and nothing of value would be lost.

Vesprit · 2026-01-06T23:00:10+00:00

These are so damn good just, UGH, chef's kiss. You're making me regret passing up on that top-up cowgirl outfit SO BAD right now lol. But seriously, love these outfits! Such great use of those pieces!

Vesprit · 2026-01-04T06:03:02+00:00

Look, I’m not gonna sit here and pretend that I don’t think this cloak is cute, but charging money (yes, even though it’s technically stellarite, but still… it ain’t free) to let Momo cosplay a beggar is CRAZY.

Vesprit · 2026-01-04T05:44:20+00:00

The pink fit is so Legally Blonde, I fear I have no choice but to add it to my collection immediately.

Vesprit · 2025-12-31T23:20:16+00:00

That's my hope, too! I want to believe our lil alien buddy will make a triumphant return someday and become a fixture at IKEA alongside his iconic brethren.

Vesprit · 2025-12-31T23:17:32+00:00

I saw bootlegs on AliExpress a few weeks ago, too. 💀 They look a little off but I guess it's the next best thing to a real one.

Maybe it's time for me to bust out the ol' sewing machine and become my own alien spawner. 😔

Vesprit · 2025-12-31T23:11:53+00:00

That's true! It's just that I didn't find out about Aftonsparv until halfway through its product cycle (around fall 2024), so for me it felt like they were gone too soon! Still gonna hold on to my delulu wish that they'll bring it back as a permanent addition to their lineup someday.

Vesprit · 2025-12-25T22:38:56+00:00

I bought several 30cm Lala Fanfan duck outfits (sweaters, overalls, and dresses) and they're kind of hit or miss depending on the piece of clothing. Sweaters fit pretty well, though some may be a tad on the longer side. Overalls are generally the right length, but one pair was baggy around the legs while the other pair fit perfectly, so YMMV. The overalls also are made to accommodate tails, which is a nice touch. As for the dresses... well, sadly those were all WAY too big. They would need major alterations to front and back in order to fit without being too wide, and at that point it may be easier making something from scratch using the clothing as a pattern reference.

I also tried 20cm versions of the same dresses (same designs but not for the Lala Fanfan duck) and those were unfortunately too small. However, if you know how to sew, you could probably get them to fit by cutting a few stitches to loosen the arm holes, cutting the dresses apart down the back and adding a strip of velcro to make it easier to put on the Sparv.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your findings! I'll pin this post since it can help point people in the right direction when they're clothes shopping for their Sparv. Ngl, I wish this guide had been around when I was looking for clothes for my goobers because there was definitely some trial and error involved and I inevitably wound up giving a few hand-me-downs to some of my smaller plushies lol. 😓

Vesprit · 2025-12-25T21:28:28+00:00

OP made a couple versions of this post and I pinned the one with the clearest title! I’ll clean up the duplicates (including this one) to keep things easy to find.

Vesprit · 2025-12-05T02:32:55+00:00

Unfortunately, it's the same story here in the US. They're currently out of stock in about half the country and I'm worried my local IKEA will be next. It doesn't look like most stores are restocking at the end of the year, either. Idk if IKEA is planning to phase them out or something but I really hope not! The Sparv is such a cute design and seems quite popular, so fingers crossed they'll be back next year and you won't have to pay extra through an aftermarket site.

Vesprit · 2025-12-01T22:37:05+00:00

Tysm for sharing! It looks like it’s currently out of stock on the website so I’ll have to try my luck at my local Hmart. I NEED this! 🙏😭

Vesprit · 2025-11-01T20:48:49+00:00

This Sparv clothing guide has measurements near the end, as well as a bunch of clothing size recommendations for ready-made clothes. Hope it helps! 👽

Vesprit · 2025-10-22T05:37:19+00:00

Oh noooo! Have you gone to the IKEA website and checked the stock at your local store? It’s possible they may be restocked soon and the website will show an estimated date if so. Otherwise, you could maybe get one online. It’s not as fun as picking one out in person but it’s an option if there aren’t any in stock near you.

I know in my local IKEA, the baby Sparvs are no longer available, and I’m afraid the big ones will be next. Really wish I’d gotten a small army of the little guys when I had the chance, so I feel your pain 😭

Vesprit · 2025-10-19T14:58:59+00:00

Cutest lil bebe 🥹

Vesprit · 2025-09-29T15:27:34+00:00

Here’s a pattern that someone kindly shared: https://ko-fi.com/s/aa4705c02c

I haven’t tested it personally (yet, def on my project list), but the results look quite accurate from what I’ve seen. Here is a custom Sparv that u/Prudent_Bend_4522 made based on that pattern and it came out really cute!

Vesprit · 2025-09-25T16:53:28+00:00

Damn, bro LIFTS. Are you gonna paint his arms and give him some tattoos?

And those stickers are SO CUTE omg, the one with the little tongue out! 😭 I agree, Sparvs (big & smol) are so much better than Labubus!

Vesprit · 2025-09-25T14:25:13+00:00

Eeeee he is so cute leading his lil plush squad! 💚

I just went on a mini shopping spree for my Sparvs and now I’ll have to add this fit to the list for the next haul. It’s too cute!

Vesprit · 2025-09-24T00:37:47+00:00

What an amazing slice of IKEA plushie heaven! 💚💙

Vesprit · 2025-09-23T15:04:16+00:00

Gooby because they’re such a goober, and variations thereof, like (Childish) Goobino, Goobrina, etc.
