Thylacereal

Two plush thylacines 'helping' to build a small model made from stacked layers of cardboard. One is holding a glue tube in its mouth and applying it to the next layer. Inside the model is a pouch with a sleeping joey that will be hidden when complete.

The finished chibi cardboard thylacine has its jaws opened wide towards the two plushies. They look nervous.

The cardboard thylacine faces off against a cardboard Tasmanian devil. Both are cute chibi proportioned, and have wide open toothy mouths. The devil has a cartoony meat drumstick under its paw.

The thylacine has the devil's meat chunk in its mouth. The devil, though its expression is unchanged, looks distraught.

Finally assembled this Eugy cardboard thylacine model last night.
(spot the cute surprise hidden inside it in the first pic hehe)

A realistic plush anomalocaris, made of printed fabric and plastic safety eyes. It is red and orange with blueish flippy flappers and big beadie black eyes

A realistic plush devonian jawless fish- this creature has a big horseshoe-shaped head and articulated scaled body and fins. It has two shining golden eyes staring from on top of the shield-head. it's mottled brown with a hint of blue.

Previously only seen at Dinocon- two new Palaeoplushies make an appearance!

The famous Anomalocaris, and the jawless fish Zenaspis!

These two are available for the first time over on my website!

Five plush Walking With Dinosaurs finger puppets on my right hand. From pinky to thumb: allosaurus, coelophysis, ornitholestes, leaellynasaura, torosaurus

The handful of puppets from behind.

The puppets from the side, peeking out behind one another.

WWD finger puppets yay! I assume this is a full set? Never seen the ornitholestes one before.
(I always feel kinda tempted to sew bodies for these... If I had matching fabric...)

Well... sometimes, simply having an especially chuckable newt in your hand while approaching a funny house is reason enough.

(Oh I should remember to credit @palaeoplushies.com for this newt..!)

Whoa that's a big lad!! Good luck in there beautiful stego...

Sweet dreams little meaty angel......

Oh it's these cuties!! Loved these wee guys, thanks for letting me have a play with one hehe.

Aight gonna spam more of these lil Yi Qi guys, some silly phone pics for now.

See thread below for more! The woodland pics were taken at Dinocon, found this really cool little footpath that led from the uni through a park, towards downtown

(Also I think these can be called #paleoart yeah?)

Photo of a giant newt floating in the sky above a house with a tower shaped like a massive stone pineapple. The newt is actually a realistic plushie I threw in the air.

Flying newt descending upon pineapple house.

The first animals to live on land were tiny arthropods, escaping predators and eating food in fields of cooksonia plants.

Tiny, bright blue Beasts of the Mesozoic velociraptor figure, posed riding a rainbow striped Schleich zebra. It's sitting down, holding onto the mane and looking up towards the camera with its mouth wide.

The velociraptor is now balanced standing on the zebra's back, surfboard style, facing the direction of travel.

Yippee!! Yeehaw!!

Microwaveraptors... Good. Looking forward to seeing em!

Royal Mail and DHL halt some US deliveries over tariffs Services including Royal Mail and DHL say they are suspending deliveries until they have proper systems in place.

Just a heads up - Royal Mail is pausing US shipping after the 26th August, so if any US American wants a Palaeoplushie please order this weekend...

I'll figure out how to post stuff again in future but for now nobody knows what's going on.

Saw no badgers either, but I did see a fox on campus! My photo was about as good.

Aw yay, thank you and enjoy your gorglet! You got one of the last mini ones?

And I'll be back for sure! Tho part of me wants to skip vending next time and enjoy the rest haha...

(Not pictured: the unlucky tetzoo spinosaurus shirt that was severely seagull bombed at dinner... Tag's there, though...)

Array of things bought at DinoCon. Includes DinoCon shirt and con book, vendor's lanyard decorated with pins, art prints, colouring books, a velociraptor figure, a plush Zenaspis, a crocheted ankylosaur, a small thylacine painting, speculative biology zines, and several stickers.

I may have spent most of my time at #DinoConUK in the vendor hall, but I sure had fun in there!
Thanks so much to everyone who visited my table and helped me sell out!

Also recall one surprisingly small child who seemed very disappointed that I'd sold out of joeys... Good taste in uglycute baby animals, kid 👍

I wish I'd taken photos of the incidents, but this little nugget got eaten by two different dinosaur puppets over the weekend.

A small plush of a pink and hairless thylacine joey in a clear plastic box, standing upright. It's a snug fit.

Specimen

An inch long, bright green bush cricket or katydid sitting on the side of a dried up flower head.

The worst, blurriest photo of a fox dashing across a path in a park lit by a streetlight. Or maybe it's a thylacine! In England!

Two animals I saw today.....

My stall, with only a single thylacine plushie remaining and a box of pins on a thylacine print tablecloth. A card sign points to the final plushie.

The stall is now empty of plushies and tablecloth. A tiny card sign says 'there were plushies here once'

There goes the last thylacine... but uh, this time it's a good thing not a sad thing.

A table covered with handmade plushies of thylacines and prehistoric animals, including a section of Palaeoplushies on the left

The same table but much, much more sparse... Only 8 plushies

The difference between Saturday and Sunday morning at #DinoConUK lol... Maybe I'll be free to attend some talks today, yay!

Oh dang, I see it... What are they doing with that order...
I'll need to wait til after I'm back from the con to look into it properly, but I'll see what I can do!

Considering bringing this goofy beast along with my other Dinocon stock, but tbh I have no idea what to charge for it... Any thoughts? Any interest even?

I'm glad folks like Cereal! I am bringing some to Dinocon, but not sure how soon I'll next stock Cereals online (unless I have leftovers from the con!)

Yeeee love to see a collection pic! Wonder which ones we have in common
