Talking Fox Plush Patreon-Exclusive Pre-Order!
Added 2024-12-11 23:33:20 +0000 UTCThe moment you've all been waiting for is here: pre-orders for the talking Fox plush are now open early for our Patreon subscribers!
This plush has a battery-powered voice box loaded with 15 of the Fox's most beloved phrases, as well as a magnetic nose so he can carry around the fish he brings with him (or anything else magnetic you want to give him, he's not picky).
We know this is quite a long pre-order time, but there are limited units available, so we wanted to give our Patrons first dibs along with a 10% discount. Add the Fox to your cart and the discount should show up there!
Patreon-exclusive pre-orders with the discount will be open until December 27th, and then the pre-order page will open to the public.
If you're wanting to buy the Fox plush as a holiday gift for someone else, we have a downloadable placeholder card for you to give in the meantime! You can find that in the item description on the DFTBA site.
Winners and runners-up of the WBN Summer Song Remix, don't worry, we've set your Foxes aside!

Taking Fox Plush
Ahoohoo and crackle crackle!

Also, they have a couple of the best lines of Fox Philosophy, but none about fish (or chowder) despite carrying one.

2025-03-12 04:53:14 +0000 UTCMy Fox has arrived! To make him talk, unzip the back and pull the plastic tab out of the battery pack (and make sure it's on). Then you might want to turn it off again if you have kids around. A couple of his 15 phrases are from the bathroom with the ice fairies when he's running interference. Enough said. I wish they'd left those out. They already had "I'm about to not want to do this anymore!" which was fine without context.

2025-03-12 04:49:42 +0000 UTCHoly crap, I just casually noticed this apparently shortly after it dropped and placed my order and forgot about it. Now to learn that I only just barely got it makes me feel so much more fortunate even with another month to wait before delivery (presumably).
Joshua Tewell
2025-02-12 19:46:41 +0000 UTCThe posting about the second run says orders in February with delivery in May; so if I math that correctly, that means first run deliveries in March

2025-02-04 16:48:26 +0000 UTCI want to say I remember seeing something about march?
Kolbjorn
2025-01-27 00:39:24 +0000 UTCIs there any word on when these guys are gonna be shipped out yet? I know there is going to be another round of pre-orders in the spring, so I’m guessing we’re still a ways out. I’m just excited to see this little guy in person!
Kayte Gardner
2025-01-16 13:13:38 +0000 UTCI was gonna snag one earlier this morning and got distracted. Thanks for doing another set of them in the spring. I'm very excited about the idea of WBN merch.

2024-12-13 19:19:08 +0000 UTCooof. waiting till payday was the wrong option. next time
Camille Alexander
2024-12-13 18:37:27 +0000 UTCI see now it was a limited run! Egg on my face for being responsible, I wasn't aware of how FAST these bad boys would go!
Benny Bee
2024-12-13 18:31:56 +0000 UTCA humble request for a second run when I'm not as broke as crap from the holidays.
Toni Duong
2024-12-13 18:10:13 +0000 UTCWas waiting until payday and am DEVASTATED to find out The Fox is already sold out 😭😭
Kelsie Crawford
2024-12-13 18:02:18 +0000 UTCI'm so sad the pre-order sold out before pay day :c is this an error or will there be another window?
Benny Bee
2024-12-13 17:33:14 +0000 UTCLol. “With Brennan Lee Mulligan as everyone, and everything, else.” Now Brennan will have to do all WWW npc plushies’ voices. 😆

Alissa Zachary
2024-12-13 15:15:10 +0000 UTCHad trouble at checkout and couldn't get back to it in time to try again! Devastated if there won't be another run!:( Delighted at how he turned out tho! Adorable!
Zachary Stigliano
2024-12-13 05:38:26 +0000 UTCYeah, but it’s not the first run so the relationship around the product with the manufacturer is already built
Faith Benamy
2024-12-12 21:26:13 +0000 UTCI’d definitely go for other Fox merch too!
Lo
2024-12-12 20:01:52 +0000 UTCHopefully the preorders will be opened up to more! I definitely want one!
Alyssa Landry
2024-12-12 19:11:35 +0000 UTCI'm sure you are right but there are merch platforms that do it as I described. Emma Thorne's Baphie plushie is frequently offered like that
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 18:31:12 +0000 UTCHow is a pre-order already sold out? Isn't the point so you know how many to make/order before you order? What limit was in place if it already sold out in less than 24 hours?
Corkscrew
2024-12-12 17:42:54 +0000 UTCsame 😭
Sofie
2024-12-12 17:32:06 +0000 UTCI'm also really confused by this.
Theresa LaMont
2024-12-12 17:13:22 +0000 UTCSo a preorder requires that they have everything lined up ready to go, for the most part- some people might do a pre-order without having a factory ready to produce but that's not great business practice, because what if it can't be made at all? I'm speculating here but I imagine they have a factory on contract to make a certain number (a number that was reasonable based on normal statistics around subs vs buyers) and we just surprised them. They'll probably need to talk to the factory or to DFTBA if they're handling manufacturing, and readjust the numbers. I've seen it happen before where a creator takes an unlimited pre-order and their factory turns them away, or people pull out because it takes too long, and it can be a really serious misstep.
Gotholi
2024-12-12 17:11:29 +0000 UTCSad that I missed it; maybe a fox t-shirt could become available in the future if plushies are complicated to produce and pre-order in the volume the listeners want? I’d jump at that too….
Kirsten
2024-12-12 17:06:06 +0000 UTCWhat an emotional roller coaster... Did y'all underestimate how much you are beloved? Are the pre-orders available for patreon supporters a portion set aside or is it completely sold out until you decide if/when to make another run?
Shannon Aaron
2024-12-12 17:05:00 +0000 UTCOh my God! They’re already sold out? No! I was too busy to login yesterday and figured I could do it today.
Patrishish
2024-12-12 16:54:57 +0000 UTCDang already sold out 😭
Erin R
2024-12-12 16:53:46 +0000 UTCYes, unfortunately it wasn't you or I..it was the way the website is limiting pre orders which is so weird to me.
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 16:50:13 +0000 UTCYeah, it's illogical that pre order can sell out!
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 16:49:28 +0000 UTCNow I see what I did wrong.....🫤🫤
stuart gaither
2024-12-12 16:27:47 +0000 UTCIt won't even let me log in to get to the pre order!
stuart gaither
2024-12-12 16:24:12 +0000 UTCAlready sold out 😭
Nadia Graham
2024-12-12 16:19:09 +0000 UTCSold out 😭 Someone call Hank and John to tell them to open up more preorders
Megan hesselink
2024-12-12 15:39:19 +0000 UTCI'm not sure I understand how a pre order can sell out. Isn't pre order to determine how many you have money to make? Edit to add: this product is exactly what we fans want from one of our favorite people, hence the disappointment and confusion. I don't want to only come in here with negative words. I'm sure Brennan already knows he's adored, but he's truly one of the best, and we of course want our little tokens of yet another fantastic experience he's contributed so much to.
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 15:38:53 +0000 UTCBut why is a pre-order sold out? Pre order means they take orders before they are made?
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 15:36:54 +0000 UTCNooo
mintyKHat
2024-12-12 15:31:41 +0000 UTCSadly preoder is already sold out. Hopefully there will be more. ❤️
susan tiss
2024-12-12 14:59:09 +0000 UTCI just got paid and this was going to be my first purchase. Alas. Hopefully more to come soon! It's so cute. Great idea.
Sarah Lopez
2024-12-12 14:56:47 +0000 UTCMy S/O works in apparel and toys and deals with the same kind of issues all the time. It makes perfect sense to do a limited release for the first run, and I’m sure there will be another given how quickly they sold out and how they can now measure the demand. So happy for your team! All the merch is fantastic and hope all the sales keep the show going and growing in the future
TimeBarista
2024-12-12 14:12:49 +0000 UTCI understand the people getting frustrated but plushies are a big deal to get manufactured, and having thousands on back order at a factory is a great way to financially murder a podcast. For what it's worth, I'm super proud that we're all so excited, and I look forward to getting a plush when I can.
Gotholi
2024-12-12 14:08:56 +0000 UTCWas the winner of summer song remix posted somewhere and I didn't notice?
Andrew Behr
2024-12-12 14:05:26 +0000 UTCI understand everyone's frustrations but I promise you they did not expect every single one of us to try to order so give them abit it's a small team an to make this happen is alot of logistics. I can almost promise you there will be more. Just breath. We will all have our fox home and cozy with us when the time is right
OminousOwl
2024-12-12 13:45:42 +0000 UTCyou've got to be kidding me. I tried to buy it in the morning as soon as I woke up and somehow paypal wasn't loading and now I'm back from work and it's sold out. Whyyyyyy? please please please make more available? please pretty please?
Nassim Tanha
2024-12-12 13:42:25 +0000 UTCIt's already sold out 😭😭😭 since it's such a long preorder window i thought that they were just going to make how ever many units were pre-ordered... Guess not. Why would you do a limited release of pre-orders and then not tell people it's a limited release and not tell people when the pre-order is going to drop?? So many people didn't even get a chance to order bc it randomly came out while they were sleeping or at work. A little heads up to patreon subscribers about when it drops would have been nice so people could have planned accordingly to at least have a chance to get one.

2024-12-12 04:38:31 +0000 UTCAlas, I would love him, but even pre-shipping would be NZ$80, and likely shipping would be another $50 - but The Fox is the best and I love that you’ve trapped his soul in plushie form!
