I got the second batch version with the magnetic paw and canvas bag and I am obsessed! I have been wanting an autism bunny for years now, but I wasn't a fan of the color palette. However, I am obsessed with this one. The fur they used for the body is extremely soft and can be petted in any direction without going against the grain and feeling "incorrect". The dot minky ears was a genius design move because they provide an intriguing texture and appearance, but ALSO pop in and out similar to a pop it, which is super calming for me.

The fur is so plush in fact, that it took me 2 days of snuggling with this guy to notice HE HAS EYEBROWS! The photos don't show it and they are covered by the fur, but I thought that was a wonderful little detail and was amused to discover them. I very carefully trimmed away the surrounding fur so they would be visible, and now he's even more adorable!

The canvas bag included is very high quality and measures about 12 inches by 14 inches. I love the design a lot more in person than I thought I would. The photos don't show it and my phone can't capture it, but the highlights on the bunny like the eyes, ears, paws have a gold shimmer! The same goes for the infinity symbol on the back, and it's beautiful in sunlight. I plan to store my fidgets in the bag since it's fitting.

The only flaw I had on my plushie was a few loose threads on the iris reflections on the eye. Those were able to be easily tucked or trimmed away and you would never notice…

I have written this review because I love this bunny, I respect that he's been made to represent ASD and this review is in no way intended to disrespect people with ASD.

I've recently purchased your new Gold ASD Bunny (mine came without the magnets that cover the mouth with the hands. The website was very clear that my Bunny wouldn't have magnets and because I'm using this bunny for a different condition I'm very happy that the hands don't have magnets) because to me he represents CRPS so well with the orange infinity sign (CRPS is the orange ribbon and we are in pain all the time, the infinity symbol), his hands are walls to show putting up or guards to hide our pain from everyone, he's incredibly soft and soothing to hold (allodynia safe) with the Fiddle bubble material in the inner ears (CRPS requires a huge amount of distraction and aids to help cope with the pain). The only thing missing from the ASD Gold Bunny that would make it perfect for CRPS is scars, tired eyes, a tear drop and possibly, as others have mentioned regarding the Chronic Pain Bunny, a zipper with a pill bottle/ bandage/ heat pack etc.. Even the brown colour of the bunny with the orange inner ears (which represents fire to me), the eyes looking away, to me, is symbolisation of being or feeling ignored by the medical profession and the little orange dots in his eyes represents the strength and resilience as well as the fire we feel in our bodies, is perfect for CRPS.

So I know you didn't make the Gold…
