Pokemon Center Fennekin Standard PlushThis was the first Fennekin plush I ever bought, but not the first one I ever got. I ordered this plush from Allinia at Poketopia Toys; she did pick-ups at the Nintendo World in NYC. At first, Nintendo World was out of stock of these, and in the meantime I went out and purchased a Tomy Fennekin plush at Toys R Us. Hence, first Fennekin plush I ever bought, but not the first Fennekin plush in my possession. This is the plush that started it all!

Pokemon Center Fennekin PokedollIt took me a long, long time to get this Fennekin pokedoll. I initially preordered one from Gin over at Sunyshore. I waited and waited for it to come in the mail, but it never came. As per her terms, I wanted another plush at shelf price or the 50% refund, but Gin wanted me to wait full three months first. In the meantime, I ordered a new one from Hobby Japan because I was nervous. That is this one. Later, my initial Fennekin showed up at Gin's house back in Japan. I finally got it and had two Fennekin pokedolls for a while, but I ended up selling the one from Gin because I really didn't need two.

Pokemon Center Christmas 2013 Fennekin Snow Play PlushI don't know why I placed the pokedoll above this plush, considering this plush came out first. I even obtained this plush before the pokedoll, hm. Anyhow, I ordered this plush shortly after I obtained the PC standard plush and the Tomy plush. I think This plush was my gateway into hardcore collecting. I had learned about bootlegs at this point, and I saw how quickly these were selling out. And I loved the material and the little sweater so I just went for it. I'm so glad I ordered it when I did, because they became extremely hard to find right afterword.

Pokemon Center 1:1 Fennekin PlushThis was my first "big" Pokemon purchase. They retail for about $40, and most pick ups and resellers were asking a good $80. I didn't want to spend that much, so I almost didn't get this plush, But then I realized I have a friend in NYC, and I asked her if she could pick one up for me. She obviously agreed. She didn't get around to it for a while, but I cannot thank her enough for going all the way out to Rockefeller Center for me. I appreciate her kindness so much.

Pokemon Center New Years 2014 Fennekin Face CushionI only just got this cushion in 2015. I had just started collecting when these were released, and I was only collecting plush at the time, For some reason my amateur collecting mind didn't think cushions should be grouped in with plush? It was only later in 2015 when I realized that cushions are stuffed and that they totally should be included with plush. I searched around and found an auction of all three starter cushions and the tote bag with tag for $70, so I snatched those up. But dang, did it ever take me forever to sell the Froakie and Chespin cushions.
|
Pokemon Center Petit Fennekin PlushIt took me a while to bite the bullet and get this little plush. Its such a tiny little keychain plush. But, it has the cutest little face. This petit plush is one of my favorites for its face. I actually think it looks more like a pokedoll than the actual pokedoll plush. I almost bought the Petit mug, too, but I didn't have the money at the time. Just the plush is fine with me!
|
Pokemon Center Christmas 2014 Fennekin Sweets Picnic PlushThis is a cute plush! Its not my favorite, though. I was expecting something a lot cuter for the second Christmas/winter promotion. I like the snowman idea, but I feel like this plush could have been more detailed or made with a better material. The fabric is like... brushed fleece? I would have preferred cloud minky or something.
|
Pokemon Center New Years 2015 Sleeping Fennekin PlushAs soon as I saw the flyer for this plush, I knew I needed it. The Fennekin of this set was the crown jewel. I immediately went around to find someone who could get me this plush and preordered it. By the time it released, however, I was nervous that my preorder wasn't going to pull through, so I ordered another complete set from Hobby Japan, and decided I would keep one as a bed buddy and one on display. I did end up selling the set from Hobby Japan, but I kept the bag and the paper tag to attach to this Fennekin.
|
Pokemon Center PokePalre Fennekin PlushI was so excited when this plush came out. Its the same material as the Snow Play Fennekin plush which I absolutely love. I also absolutely love Amie and a plush based on it was perfect. This plush is so cute. The fabric is great, the pose is great, the PokePuff is great... I love it! I liked that it was a surprise release, too. Those are always fun!
|
Pokemon Center Braixen Standard PlushI love Braixen a lot! I have a level 100 Braixen on my official Pokemon team (not a competitive team, just a team of what I would have with me if I were a real Pokemon trainer) and I love her to bits. So I was very excited for this plush, but my hype was kind of uncalled for? While it is indeed better than the official Tomy Braixen plush, it still isn't entirely... right. Braixen has a tough design to plush. This plush did the best job, but I think they could have done better.
|
Pokemon Center Delphox Standard PlushI almost didn't buy this plush. Gin over at Sunyshore was charging a whopping $53 for it, so I didn't buy it from her like I did my Braixen. I spent quite a bit of time looking for someone who would pick it up at a cheaper price for me. But then I discovered Vector Sells Stuff on Tumblr, which would become my go-to place for Pokemon merch. Their prices were extremely reasonable, and I was able to buy this plush for $40. Unfortunately, Vector doesn't offer pick-ups anymore, which makes me sad.
|
Pokemon Center Delphox PokedollI also got this cute patoot from Vector Sells Stuff! I thought Gin over at Sunyshore was charging a bit too much for my taste, so off to Vector I went. I don't like the PC standard Delphox that much, but this one is actually a cutie! This plush actually made me like Delphox a little more, but not enough for me to evolve my precious Braixen.

Takara Tomy 8-Inch Fennekin PlushThis was actually the first Fennekin plush thatI ever had in my possession! I was waiting for my PC standard Fennekin from Poketopia Toys and I really wanted a Fennekin plush. I knew that the Tomy plush were available at places like Toys R Us and Target, so I called all over the place to find a store that had one. Its not the best Fennekin plush, but it tided me over until my PC standard plush could get to me!
|
Takara Tomy 18-Inch Fennekin PlushMy significant other bought this for me without me knowing. They kept asking me if I had all the Fennekin plush and which ones I was missing. One day they came over to my house with this big box and I just knew, especially after I saw the Tomy logo on it. I was frustrated because I don't like people spending money on me (it makes me feel like I need to return the favor), but I do appreciate that they went out of their way to order this for me for my collection!
|
Takara Tomy Fennekin Keychain PlushThis plush took me a little while to find. I knew it was out there, but I couldn't ever find it for sale anywhere. I almost gave up looking for it when I stumbled across it on Amazon one day. I immediately jumped the gun and ordered it, because there only a few left and I didn't know if I was going to be able to find it again. Its kind of ugly, but at this point I wanted to complete my Fennekin plush collection and I needed it.
|
Takara Tomy Shiny Fennekin Keychain PlushI stumbled across this plush when I was browsing Amazon Japan. It wasn't coming out for a while at that point, but I immediately got in contact with Vector at Vector Sells Stuff because I wanted it. I also preordered the new Tomy Mudkip plush at that point, which I have since gotten rid of when I downsized my side collection. It is a cute little sparkly keychain plush, and I am glad I ordered it when I did, because I think they became hard to find after? They must have, because people were using my photo for their wants. First time that ever happened, wow!
|
Takara Tomy Talking Fennekin PlushThis plush is also pretty ugly. I was not going to add this plush to my collection at first because its so ugly. I had pointedly told my significant other that I was going to collect Fennekin plush, except this one. I don't know what made me change my mind, but I did, even if only to complete my Fennekin plush collection. I keep this one kind of off in the corner so you can't really see it.

Takara Tomy 8-Inch Fennekin Plush [Version 2]This plush was interesting to get. I preordered this plush from Amazon Japan via Vector, quite far in advance. Close to the time it was going to be released, Vector got in contact with me and told me it was completely removed from Amazon Japan and that my preorder had been cancelled. I later found that ToyWiz had the US version of the plush in stock and ordered it, but they ended up sending me the first Tomy Fennekin plush and not the new one. I sent them a message with a picture, and their customer service actually accused me of holding down the raised paw? Absolutely awful customer service, but I am indeed glad that I at least got my correct plush in the end.

Takara Tomy Limited Edition DoriDori Fennekin PlushAH! DoriDori Fennekin!!! I was so excited when they came out with this plush!! I actually wasn't that fond of the DoriDori ending to Pokemon XY at first, I thought it was kind of strange. But I absolutely loved when Serena battled or did something cool and the music played in the background. Serena's Fennekin (now Braixen) is an absolute doll. I really want Tomy to come out with a DoriDori Braixen with Braixen in her performance outfit - granted I'd like them to change their Braixen plush a bit first....
|
Takara Tomy Braixen PlushI had Vector preorder this plush for me on Amazon Japan before there was a picture of what it was going to look like. And let me tell you, this plush is ugly as sin. The torso and hind legs actually aren't the worst, but the face is absolutely hideous. I don't know what they thought they were doing when they designed the eyes, but they're all wrong. Maybe if they tilted the eyes in a little more and placed the pupils closer to the nose?
|
Banpresto MPC Fennekin PlushIt took me a while to get this little Fennekin MPC. When I was first obtaining all of the Banpresto plush, I went for the bigger ones in a "more bang for your buck" kind of way. The first one I got was the Super DX plush, then the standard Banpresto plush, and then this little one. The placement of the eyes on the MPC is kind of odd to me. And why is this specific one made from minky?
|
Banpresto Standard Fennekin PlushWhen I was faced with the decision of which Banpresto plush to buy first, between this one and the Super DX plush, I went with the Super DX plush because it was bigger and they both were the same price. It was more bang for my buck. But then I realized that I saw Super DX plush everywhere, and this gal was getting harder to find. I had to go looking and snatched the first one I found, because I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find it if I waited any longer.
|
Banpresto Korotto Manmaru Fennekin PlushThis little plush was one of my first Banpresto pre-orders from AnimeRaro along with my Furret MPC. This plush is not particularly my favorite. I know korotto manmaru are supposed to be rolly polly, but this Fennekin is so top heavy that it has a really really hard time standing up. The big tail doesn't even help! I don't know, I'm just not the biggest fan of the pudginess of this Fennekin. However, I think the Eeveelu korotto manmaru are adorable? Double standards I guess.
|
Banpresto Super DX Fennekin PlushThis was the first Banpresto plush in my collection! I got this one in the beginning. It was the same price as the regular sized Banpresto Fennekin plush, so I got this one because it was bigger. I got it for a very reasonable price, in my opinion! I think her muzzle is a little too square, but I think she is adorable nonetheless! Her teensie paws are the absolute cutest.
|
Banpresto Super DX Movie Fennekin PlushI pre-ordered this plush way in advance from AnimeRaro, and it took quite some time to get. It was around this time that AnimeRaro started getting very slow about pre-orders and stopped offering pre-orders for new merch. I wonder what happened? But anyway, this doll here is adoarble! They changed her face from the other Super DX Fennekin, which I think was an incredible improvement! Her eyes just seem better, and the little lines on her forehead seem more natural. One of Banpresto's best Fennekin plush, that is for sure.
|
Banpresto Korotto Manmaru (XY&Z Movie) Braixen PlushI was so excited for this girl when the prototype art came out. She looked so adorable, and so much better than any of the other official Braixen plush! She ended up being... not so great, though. When the photos of the actual plush came out, I was very disappointed. All that hype for nothing. But when I bought this girl off of Yahoo! Japan, the angle of the photo actually made her look cute, so I had hope! Unfortunately, when she came to me, she didn't seem as cute as she did in the seller's photos. I don't know why the official plush manufacturers can't seem to get Braixen right. The eyes seem especially hard to get right. Believe you me, I am happy to have this girl in my collection, but I just wish she was as cute as she was in the prototype art.
