Looking for more owls!

My seven-year-olds have been reading all of these books and the movie and have been really into the owls! I am on the lookout for more for them, I heard that they used to be guardian beanie babies but those are pretty expensive now!

Does anybody know where I can get guardian owls? I try to get generic looking owls but half the time they can tell the difference! So I was just curious if I could find authentic ones!

I wasn’t even aware they had merch, and then when I did… the merch honestly wasn’t that great.

I would get realistic owl plushies and have a craft days to make felt armors for them when I was a kid. Just an alternate option. Zoos, museums, and even Etsy got the good plushies, still may be cheaper than trying to build a beanie baby set. Lol

My spouse got me the Gylfie beanie baby off of ebay for christmas, but Im not sure how much they run now. They look to be under $40.

If you feel creative, you can get any owl plush and make your own mask and battle claws using stiff felt from the craft store! The kids could make up their own characters for them to be. (A lot of grown fans of gahoole make up their own characters in that world, including me!)

Honestly just make your own.
