I went to a garden centre yesterday and found none other than the new Jellycat Sky Dragon! So naturally he came home with me! I named him Mr Blue Sky!

I now have 3 Jellycat dragons! The lavender one I forgot to introduce, but I got it from Fenwick in York back in April! Its name is Parma Violet!

Introducing a new little friend! Bought for me by my mother in May 2024 from a charity shop. A spinosaurus by Deluxebase (though I can't find anything else about it online! How odd.) named Sockeye!

Sockeye is the child of Bones and Trout! He's quite a perfect mix of both parents - the red face and short snout of Bones, and the brown back and spine of Trout!

Its personality seems to be a mix of both parents too - it's as helpful as Bones is, fetching tinned food (which he loves as much as his parents) and letting Trout lean on him, and also as loving as Trout, also inheriting the habit of biting people's snouts in affection!

Sockeye's also great friends with the other young dinos around, such as Baby Blue and Marmalade!

A pleasant little update! Aureo's settling in nicely - it gets along quite well with Steak, my Gorgonops plush!

I have an old desk by my bed that I use as a side table, and there's a shelf right next to my head where Steak sleeps, so I decided to use a spare pillow to make Steak and Aureo both a cozy bed where they can curl up together! They both love it!

[quintoys]

I went to Conwy in North Wales again today, and since I had some birthday cash, I had my heart set on one thing from the Yesteryears toy shop...

Here's Aureo, a Jellycat Medium Golden Dragon! I often (read: always) feel guilty when I spend money on non-essentials, but Aureo's worth it! It's so soft you wouldn't believe!

Also joining us from Conwy is Poncho, a Keeleco Dilophosaurus! Aureo and Poncho curled up nicely together on the drive home!

And only just catching a ride back is Revels the Ty Beanie Boo Portia Boston Terrier! A last minute cheeky purchase from Morrisons!

They're all home and dry after a rainy ride back, and are ready to settle in and meet the others!

Easter is a day for fluffy chicks, so here's some fluffy chicks of my own!

Say hello to Peanut Butter (Wild Republic Artist Collection Velociraptor) and his little brother Marmalade (Dinosaur Boo! the Deinonychus, which I bought just because he looks so silly!).

Easter means eggs, and there's nothing that these raptor brothers like more than eggs! Hopefully they learn to share...

Introducing a couple more friends! Here's Bones (Wild Republic Foilkins T Rex) and Trout (Zappi Co Spinosaurus). Both were received as birthday gifts in February 2024!

These two might be different in many ways, but they're inseparable! The others tease them about being lovebirds a lot of the time, but they take it all in their stride!

Bones is strong and agile, and loves climbing into cupboards to grab a snack! Trout always waits at the bottom while Bones passes things down - they both love canned fish in particular!

Trout is large and loving, and likes to show his appreciation by biting his friends and loved ones on the nose. Luckily Bones is a T-Rex who took place in that behaviour too, so they both manage to communicate their affection very well!

Trout's back legs are pretty weak and it can't stand up without leaning on something or someONE - but thankfully Bones is glad to help Trout come down to the kitchen for a bite to eat! A more perfect pair there never was!

Bones passed Trout a can of tuna! Seems like now they'll both be on the hunt for a can opener!

I know I haven't posted for quite a bit, but I celebrated my birthday recently! Quite a few new friends to introduce!

Here's one that I ordered last week (late February 2024) and arrived today! (March 2024)

This is a Paleozoic Pals Gorgonops plush! I've affectionately called it Steak, after one of my favourite foods!

It was glad to finally be let out of its parcel, and was eager to stretch its legs and make everyone's acquaintance! You've got a lot of plushes to say hi to, Steak!

[quintoys]

I went to town today to go to the opticians and buy mother's day cards - and in the card shop was a little cutie I couldn't resist!

It's a My Blue Nose Friends Chill the Triceratops - though I've named him Baby Blue!

He's very soft and light, and has beans at the bottom so he can sit! A very sweet little guy!

[quintoys]

A very happy Valentine's day from Roary the dinosaur and Valentine the puppy! (Both are Morrisons brand Valentine plushes!)

We didn't have any Valentine's sweets or chocolate in the house, but these two were perfectly happy to make do with sharing some jelly beans!

[quintoys]

I went out for a ride to the coast this evening. The coast, of course, means fish and chips - and Plum the pterodactyl immediately wanted to come along!

Plum is a Keeleco Pterodactyl bought from a toy shop in Conwy, North Wales, in October 2023. It's very pleasant to touch, especially the soft wings and textured tummy!

Plum and I very much enjoyed our fish supper!

Pinned post time!

Hi, I'm Quintus! This is a sideblog to show off my toys (mostly plushes!). My main blog is @quintushazard.

I just post whenever I want to - I'll try to at least introduce a toy as often as I can, but sometimes I just don't feel like posting!

Unless stated otherwise, assume that my toys go by any pronouns, it doesn't matter which.

Same DNI criteria applies as on my main, so read my pinned post there. If I don't want you here I'll just block you, that's final.

Enjoy my silly little guys!

I went for a ride in the car today, and Puppy (Zappi Co Dimetrodon) (it/he) wanted to come too! Thankfully it's a very good traveller and doesn't bark.

I got Puppy in 2023, and he's very polite and obedient, yet goofy at times! That just adds to its overall charming personality.

[quintoys]

I took Pocket Duck to the dentist with me - I kept my hand on it in my pocket while I was in there :)

Afterwards we shopped at Morrisons - and Pocket Duck found three friends to follow her home!

Introducing Emerald the tiger (she/her), Sapphire the leopard (she/they) and Valentine the puppy (he/she)! Emerald and Sapphire are Ty Beanie Boos (which are already named, but I wanted to give them my own names) and Valentine is a Morrisons brand Valentine puppy!

[quintoys]

Since I'm going out today already, I thought I might as well take a little friend with me!

This here is Pocket Duck (any pronouns) and she's a Living Nature Duckling Mini Buddy that I got from a gift shop in Castleton a few years ago (can't remember the exact date!).

He wears a little bell (from a Lindt chocolate reindeer) to remind others not to step on her since she's so little. They like to sit in pockets and give a burst of bravery to whoever's pocket they're riding in. He himself is very brave and loves to go on adventures!

hello friend, what brand is goose?? i really love it and i would like to acquire one of my own .. :3

Hi! Apparently the brand is Agatige, and Goose is the 130cm version if you wanted a big one. Though I'm sure it's one of those toys that loads of brands make cheaply (though Goose is good quality!!) and advertise on Amazon and AliExpress and stuff, I'm sure if you just searched 'big goose plush' on Google you'd get something if searching 'Agatige goose' doesn't get you anywhere :)

[quintoys]

Let's start with a toy that's probably too big to take anywhere, hehe.

This is Goose (it/its) and it's my bedtime companion! Received as a birthday present in February 2023.

Goose loves nothing more than to laze around all day, then snuggle up in bed and listen to anything I have to say to it. It's a good listener!

[quintoys]

Yo this is Quintus "@quintushazard" Hazard, this is just a for-fun sideblog to show my toys maybe.

I'll try and take a plush toy out every week when I can, and I'll introduce each toy beforehand perhaps :)
