How to Create a Custom Plushie with Memeshapes

With Memeshapes, creating and selling a custom plushie is simple, risk-free, and powered by crowdfunding. Whether you’re a content creator, artist, game studio, or just love to design original characters, we handle the entire process—from concept and design to manufacturing, shipping, and customer support. You bring the idea, and we take care of everything else.

It all starts with an idea

Every custom plushie begins with a simple idea. Whether it’s an original character, online persona, mascot, or meme, you provide the concept, and we help you turn that idea into reality.

Our concept artists will create a series of sketches based on iconic elements and moments from your content. We submit a final concept sketch for your approval.

After finalizing the sketches, our designers turn the concept into a detailed, production-ready design. This includes everything from accurate measurements to the specific materials that will make your plushie look and feel just right.

Bringing the idea to life

Once the design is complete, we move to the exciting part—creating the first prototype. This is a physical sample of your plushie, a true-to-life preview that includes all the details, right down to the packaging. The prototype will be sent to your location for review, giving you the chance to see, touch, and evaluate the product before mass production begins.

  • You’ll be able to provide feedback at this stage, ensuring the plushie matches your expectations perfectly. Whether it’s a tweak to the colors, materials, or overall shape, we’ll make sure the final version reflects your vision.
  • With the prototype approved, we’re ready to move forward to the production phase—your custom plushie is almost ready to meet the world!

Crowdfunding

Once your plushie design is ready, Memeshapes will set up a crowdfunding campaign, allowing you to start collecting orders from your supporters.

Let Your Fans Fund the Project

Crowdfunding works on a simple premise: if your plushie reaches at least 100% of its funding goal, it will go into production. If the goal isn’t met, everyone will automatically be refunded

Promoting your campaign

Launching a campaign can be exciting yet nerve‑wracking. That’s why Memeshapes will assist you throughout the entire campaign duration, and help you create the marketing content required to promote your product to your supporters.

Fulfillment &
Customer Support

Once your campaign reaches its funding goal, Memeshapes takes over the entire production process including manufacturing and quality control. When your plushies are ready, they’re shipped worldwide to your supporters. You won’t need to worry about logistics—Memeshapes manages all aspects, including customer support and global fulfillment. This way, you can focus on what you love most: creating content and connecting with your audience.
