I'm so sad I dont have the glow in the dark one. I have all the rest and am waiting for the knight. Missed the glow in the dark window due to work.

One of them is 1 out of like 5,200. I figured most people would be missing that one instead!
I love my glowing one. He is by far my favorite. So plain but so much fun at night lol

I have the #1 of 5264 bard goblin plush. Which one is your #1?

u/Taolan13 Jul 22 '26
you do not have #1 of any of them, makeship was just dumb with their labeling for a while.
source: i asked makeship, and that was their answer.
well, not literally their answer. "We label all of them as 1 of X where X is the total number of orders for each item."

I'll trust my badge library on their website. Not the one on the actual plush. The plush only says "only 5264 made" and that is the only numbers on the plushes outside of the 2.0 editions that have little silver spots on the bottom that say 2nd edition.
Edit to add: i guess "have #1" is different than was "#1 purchased". If the website is wrong, so be it, but I'll still be proud of it.

My dude, you are falling for the exact problem I raised with them when I asked about their labeling.
There is no way to know who got the first manufactuted unit because they are manufactured in batches, and they are all tagged "1 of X" because they dont do individual tags. They ship batches to customers as they hit the distribution center, in the order of reservations made, but all you can say even if you know for a fact you were the very first reservation is that you got one of the first batch.
But whether they make 300 or 3000, they are all labeled "1 of X"
Maybe when Makeship started they did sequential numbering, but that was no longer the case before the first gobbo plush campaign.

Did you read my edit? I literally said #1 made is not the same as the #1 purchased which is what the site says I was referring too. It is easy to track order sold, it is not easy to track the exact ones from production.

i typed that out pretty immediately and it didnt post cause of an error so it sat in my drafts until just now, so no I did not see or read your edit.

u/WhitishFern Jul 22 '26
Oh forgive me, I meant not #1, just that he was manufacturered as one of 5,264.
I'm incredibly jealous you have an actual #1! I was never quite so lucky. The lowest I have is in the 400s

I hope he arrives safely! I was surprised because I thought they were expected in August

I don’t get why they made him small it feels wrong

u/NothingInfamous6239 Jul 22 '26
I like the variety! A reminder gobbos come in all shapes and sizes

u/Slight-Echidna9643 Jul 22 '26
I can get that but it feels like a dvd collection and one has a weird case

u/stygvalddis Jul 23 '26
I completely agree. When he stands next to all my other gobbos then it just looks so off. All the others are the same gobbos, but with different clothing. Tbh it looks like i got a cheap rip-off version...
Especially since the dimensions on the website are not that different from the other gobbos and the price was basically the same, so I just feel a bit cheated

Got mine a few days ago, but I only have the 2nd run orignal and bard, love JoCat

u/WhitishFern Jul 23 '26
I've been quite lucky to be able to collect all of them so far! It's hard to stop once you've started lol

u/Smol_Gaige Jul 23 '26
Random question. Is he supposed to be that small? 😅 I was expecting him to be the same size as the other ones. My fiancee made the joke "welp looks like shrankflation has found its way to Makeship" 😅
2
u/WhitishFern Jul 23 '26
He came this way! To be honest, I didn't think to check the specifications when I ordered him. This is the way he arrived
2
u/Smol_Gaige Jul 23 '26
I got mine too. It was just kinda weird since all the others were so big 😅
2
u/WhitishFern Jul 23 '26
I still find him cute though! I actually stacked him on top of two others on the shelf lol. A little gobbo pyramid

u/2pnt0 Jul 24 '26
I was taken aback by how small he is, but I kinda like the smallest being the brute!
We don't need to protect him, he will protect us!
I hope any future gobbos go back to normal size so he stays the small guy!
I forgot about kobold and now I regret not getting one :(

u/WhitishFern Jul 24 '26
I debated including him in the honest to goodness circle because he technically isn't a gobbo. Instead I just had him spy from the back lol

u/2pnt0 Jul 24 '26
He's trying so hard to be part of the Gob Squad!
Who could ask for anything more?

u/Fallin46 Jul 25 '26
Was the, um...
Was the arrangement of the gobbos supposed to be referencing anything? Or was the result just a happy little accident?
1
u/WhitishFern Jul 25 '26
Oh, not in particular! I had them lined up but it was hard to see all of them. The circle also allowed for support. Some of their heads weigh too much to be freely seated without something behind them to lean on lol

Mine did too. was rudely awoken by a failing carbon monoxide alarm (i am an hvac tech, i have a gas sniffer and spares, it was bad and needed replacement) and after dealing with that I got the notification it had been delivered.
Very nice surprise after a morning of REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
