X-men'97 on Netflix was such a cool show. Paid respect to the 90s classic show while exploring new stories and characters. Loved the show so naturally I had to find some figures to express my fandom.
Here are a few HotToy Cosbaby X-men'97 figures from my collection. Not Funko, actually much cuter if you ask me.
If you're after a very last minute gift idea, might I propose this as inspiration? I had to make 50 squeaky bones for an event recently and decided it'd be a very good idea to document the process so you can see how I went about it.
Change the shape, and this is a good project idea for decorations or even simple stuffed toy gifts.
Ragdoll Bunny Snuggle by Lisa S. Baker is a cozy, heartwarming artwork featuring a fluffy ragdoll cat cuddled peacefully with a soft bunny plush. Rendered in soothing tones and expressive brushstrokes, this piece celebrates comfort, calm, and the simple joy of quiet companionship.
W niedzielę zobaczyłam Wołki z Bytynia. Mają jakieś 3500-5000 lat. Zawsze mnie wzrusza, że te tysiące lat temu ludzie też kochali swoje dzieci i robili czy kupowali im zabawki.
On Sunday, I saw the Bytyń Oxen. They're about 3,500-5,000 years old. It always moves me that thousands of years ago, people loved their children and made or bought them toys.
Dwie figurki z metalu przedstawiające wołki. Wołki mają wydłużony grzbiet oraz krótkie nogi o klockowatym wyglądzie. Głowę ujęto schematycznie. Na głowie znajdują się długie rogi, wypukłe oczy oraz pysk o spiczastym zakończeniu. Ogony są grube i krótkie. Na szyjach wyrzeźbiono im podwójne, karbowane obroże.
Here's a recent crochet doll that will be given as a gift to a niece for her Christmas by her Auntie. I loved her look and her outfit was just fab. The wee girl is a future fashion designer for sure 🙂
A photo of the crochet toy version of the girl in the child's drawing. It is sitting on a small own beanbag with it's legs crossed at the ankles and it's arms outstretched to show the spidery wings of the outfit. Like the drawing is has a bare midriff with a visible belly button.
Shepherd Bunny Snuggle by Lisa S. Baker is a tender portrait featuring a German Shepherd gently holding a beloved stuffed bunny close. Painted in a soft, textured style, this artwork captures loyalty, comfort, and the quiet bond between a watchful companion and a cherished keepsake.
This is a front-on photo of the same crochet toy, showing a top down perspective of it's head with the long snout and little black nostrils. It's black eyes have been highlighted with white yarn the texture of the crochet leaves that cover the body can be seen in this photo.

Here's Super Krab, a recent custom order, to gee you up a bit. You wouldn't say no to that happy wee face now would you? 😄
A child's drawing of a crab on the left and two photos, one facing forward and the other facing backwards, of the crochet toy made from the drawing. The crab'a shell is orange on top with a red underside. It has large blue eyes on black stalks and large yellow crab claw feet. It has yellow arms made up with ball-like structures, with clab claws on the ends. It is wearing a ref cloak, visible from the rear view, with the letters S and K in green on the back for Super Krab.
Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think about it.

Some of the Kids' drawings toys I am asked to make are just a riot of colour and imagination 🙂 This recent make is a good example of that. It's supposed to be all one creature, but I worked the pieces separately and joined them via little crochet loops so that the wee boy could play with them individually if he wanted to.
A crochet version of the child's drawing as described in the first image. It is sitting on a little owl cushion on a wooden surface next to a red wall.
A photo I took of the plush Mastodon stuffed animal that arrived. #Plushtodon is the hashtag used for these photos and it's even on the tag on the ear.
You can see part of my keyboard and two monitors in the photo along with my mouse.
