There is also a new page for the collection listed on Build-A-Bear’s website though it is looking pretty empty as of now.
So far all we know is that they are doing a collection and that it is coming soon. Whether the collection will only feature more popular characters like Tom Nook and Isabelle, or if it will offer a range of villagers like Stitches, Fauna, Raymond, and Marshell, is unclear as of now.
In the past, the company has worked with Nintendo on collections for Pokemon and Mario. Notably, the Pokemon collection has had quite a few additions to it throughout the years with the current line-up featuring Dragonite, Eevee, Pikachu, Snubbull, and Mew. In addition to the stuffed Pokemon available for purchase, the collection also includes a number of Pokemon-themed ideas that can be worn by either Pokemon or regular Build-A-Bears.
