Welcome to the Bear Cave

If you thought Build-a-Bear was only for kids, think again. The mall staple has introduced a line of stuffed animals that’s for adults only, just in time for Valentine’s Day.


You can find Build-a-Bear’s After Dark collection in the Bear Cave section of its website, but note that due to the, um, spicy nature of some of these plushies, there’s an age disclaimer to enter, and you’ll have to confirm with the site that you’re at least 18 before perusing the new line. Once you’re in, though, you can check out new offerings like Zaddy Lion, a Devilishly Pink teddy bear or even a $2,000 anniversary bear covered in Swarovski crystals.

Note also that several of these stuffed animals are online exclusives, so you won’t be able to build or customize them in stores.
