Adding Vintage Jellycats to the database!

Vintage Jellycat Database

Hi everyone!

I have been working on adding more Jellycats to the database, but specifically I would like to include more vintage Jellycats to the website, particularly from the 1990’s and early 2000’s.

My aim is to make Jelly Collector the most comprehensive list of Jellycats so that collectors can enjoy tracking their collection, or they may come across Jellycats that they might not yet own so they can add them to their ISO/wish list.

I also want this website to be helpful for people finding old Jellycat friends that they may have once owned and misplaced.

The Jellycat website only lists retired Jellycats as far back as those that were retired in 2010, so finding vintage Jellycats, and particularly any information on them from earlier years can be a little tricky.

If anyone owns any vintage Jellycats that are not yet on Jelly Collector that they would like to be added to the website, please let me know so that I can try and make this database as complete as possible for other collectors to enjoy! Any additional information, such as names, year of release/retirement would be very welcome indeed.

Please let me know in the comments below who you would like to be added to the website!

Happy Collecting!

Jellycat Review: Forest Fauna Frog

Wednesday, March 20th, 2024

Hi everyone!

I received this little guy in the post yesterday and I just HAD to show him to you!

Meet Forest Fauna Frog!

Jellycat Forest Fauna Frog ReviewI must admit, even though Forest Fauna Frog has been on my wish list for a while, I wasn’t particularly sold on him at first.

His face wasn’t quite how I expected it to be from the stock images, his house was a little out of shape when it arrived (not the seller’s fault, he was squashed through the letterbox!) and now I have detached him from his toadstool home, it has a tendency to fall over when he isn’t sat inside!

He has been sat on my living room table since he arrived, smiling away to me and I’ve now warmed up to the little guy!

Jellycat Forest Fauna Frog ReviewForest Fauna Frog arrived attached by a cotton thread through his hang tag to a loop inside the bottom of his house.

On the top of his hang tag is the Jellycat style number (FORF2F) and the message below reads:

I am
Forest Fauna Frog

Please look after me.

Jellycat Forest Fauna Frog Hang TagThe little frog is very small, which is actually just what I wanted as I love the tiny Jellycats.

I intend to use this little guy as a “pocket Jellycat” to be able to fit in my handbag while out and about.

He measures 10cm tall to the top of his little eyes and 8cm from toe to toe on his tiny webbed feet.

Although it took a little more time than usual to fall for this little guy, Forest Fauna Frog has really grown on me!

His little smile brightens my day while working, and I love his little (if a little wonky) toadstool home!

My only advice would be to try and see this little guy in the flesh first and check on the quality of his house to make sure it stands up.

The only other thing i’m not certain of is whether to unpick the stitched of his hands so they aren’t attached to his body anymore. I’ve seen someone do this on Reddit and thought it improved his look a little, but I’m a little nervous to try this myself! If anyone has done this before, please give me some advice as I don’t want to ruin him!

More Bunnies added to the database!

Tuesday, April 6th, 2021

Hi guys!

I hope you’ve all had a lovely Easter. It’s freeeeezing at the moment at Jelly Collector HQ! I’ve even seen a few flakes of snow falling!

Today, I’ve been busy (with some help from Crispin) adding more Bashful Bunnies to the Jelly Collector database.

We haven’t got many bunnies to add now. When I’ve finished, I’ll make a start on some of the other Jellycats. If you have a Jellycat that isn’t on the database yet, please get in touch and I’ll try and add it for you. I’m regularly adding new Jellies to the website, but I’m always happy to try and add in requests.

All the Special Edition bunnies are now on the website, as are the Winter/Christmas 2021 Jellycats for you to check out. Please let me know in the comments below if I’ve missed any.

My own collection of bunnies is growing, and I’ve got my eye on a few more that I want/need. I also have some Jellymail on the way, so I’ll post that up when it arrives.

For the moment, me and Crispin are taking a tea break. It’s a cold day and he needs to warm his claws up.

Hope you have a lovely day!
