History Purchased on Ebay years ago, sat in a box set that was falling apart. I removed the plush and mailed it to Leach, who personally called me and left a message to confirm that she would sign it she then texted to confirm it was dropped off at the post office. I received the signature from West at a convention in 2025 and witnessed him signing it in-person. I personally know DeShazer who I mailed the plush to after West signed it and confirmed it was signed over the phone with me.
Price Paid (If known) $22 for the plush + $60 for West's Signature + approx $30 misc fees (i.e, shipping to Leach & DeShazer)
