This is the updated version of our old raccoon design.
Two reasons for the change.
1. I've gotten much better with patterns and design work and thought it was time for an upgrade.
Besides I LOVE the new body on this, so happy how it turned out.
2. Two words, Latex Catfish. They stole and reproduce (badly) our old design (along with some others), so they can have our out dated pattern, we have this guy now!
Here he is shown in his fat inflated form and skin tight options.
Comes in your choice of colours and yes, we could even make him fatter again if you wish. Ball form even!
Big thank you to

This looks amazing! I know who Latex Catfish is since they tried and failed to sell me latex suits on fetlife a while back. The biggest giveaway was along the fact the suits were made in China, which makes them weak and from coming from China, can be dangerous, the guy who tried to sell me the suits had several pics of other artists/companies latex suits on their fetlife page, never asking permission to have them there and stealing other people's ideas. I would love one day to have a latex wolf suit of my fursona and for some people, they still confuse me for a fox. >.>
Actually my stuff is produced in China. That doesn't make it cheap. (Well sort of...)
I design the concept, my artist does the turn around. I then produce patterns and and a mock design out of material.
I then send this to my people to put together. (I'm great with fursuits and a sewing machine, not so great and glueing latex.)
The factory I use doesn't sell direct to the public and currently produces latex for many MANY popular latex companies around the world that many people here would know.
I out source the latex I use to a different company in China, it took me a long time and a lot of samples to find a quality of latex that i was happy with. None of that stinky cheap stuff.
The item is then made, if it doesn't quite look right, I'll tweak it and have it made again.
It's then shipped to me here in Australia to be inspected and pass quality control and shipped out to the customer.
Many people have this stigma that China produces sub par items. Which yes, they do. By the bucket load!
But, they also produce a heap of really cool stuff. It all comes down to quality control, the company etc etc.
I could use a local builder to put my latex together, but then i'd be charging more like $1500 for the latex fox instead of $650.
So that is where is ends up cheap. It's cheaper to have it made in China, there for I can sell it cheaper and make a fun squeaky items actually affordable to all.
Puffy Paws have there inflatable toys made in China, they're by no means poor quality.
As I said, all depends on the business and quality control.
Hope that clears things up. ^__^
