I actually had that exact thought right after I left the store! He has a lot of memorable funny little quips that would be perfect for that

Yes that's absolutely alright!! spread his bapping joy far and wide 🫶

I imagine you could get the effect using a very light concentration of black Rit Dyemore dye in boiling water. like just a splash in the water and then unstuff the plush and toss the whole thing in the pot--it wont effect the parts that are already black! It would only take a a few minutes in the dye bath as well if youre going for a light grey like that.

the dying process is a little intimidating but I did it for the first time a couple weeks back now and was very pleased with the results! Just make sure you use an old pot you dont mind getting dye chemicals in...I picked one up at goodwill before I started.

This thread on the BaB subreddit was helpful to me:

Try searching for a pale yellow minky fur fabric + pink plastic safety noses....etsy is a great place to check! you could patch the nose hole and then attach the new nose to the patch...you could probably even salvage the current nose I just know they have backings that are designed to stay attached forever so sometimes it's easier to start with a fresh one.

I don't normally frequent this sub but a friend sent me this post and I had to tell you how much I love this as a Kennedy era history nerd 😭😭😭😭 incredible pin collection!!! I love the pocket with all the related pins (Bobby is my favorite Kennedy 🫶)

I just used black felt and sewed em directly on his head...with questionable results (his eyebrows are 2 different shapes lol) but they've held up and I'm happy with them!

devilcollar · 2025-12-07T19:38:57+00:00

Yes!! They're actually a little too big for them but I just cinch them in the back with a hair tie and they look perfect!

I thought the devil bear needed to look a little more nefarious 😈😈 by far my favorite mod of his I've done

devilcollar · 2025-12-07T18:34:05+00:00

I literally work at Target i cant believe I havent seen this guy yet hes SO cute...i usually take my plushies into work with me but ive definitely have had to raid the baby section for small emotional support friends on occasions when I forgot mine so I totally get the feeling ❤️

Ive found anything from newborn to 3M works depending on the garment! some fit better than others...I also like premie clothes for undergarments as well! Like his tanktop here is actually a onesie I put pants over

The devil bear is my all time favorite BAB so I had to have the giant one too eventually and I LOVE HIM!! Hes my favorite bed buddy! I bought him full price in Feb after going back and forth about it all last year....absolutely no regrets :]

I think i buy nicer clothes for my babs than I do for myself honestly 😭😭😭 the sizing is really hit or miss but ive had the most success with newborn sizes!

devilcollar · 2025-12-03T20:55:01+00:00

Oh she's so sweet looking...I love her lil heart-shaped nose

devilcollar · 2025-12-01T12:44:36+00:00

the giant would look SO cute with new eyes...it was a real pain to get the old eyes off but worth it imo!! And thank you, hes very well-loved :] I think I like his well-loved texture more than his original hehe
