This is OT even for OT but if anyone can help...

Calling on all who are good at finding stuff online!

This is the weirdest request I have ever made...

I know of a woman (she frequents the Disneyworld vacation planning site I do) who is desperately looking for a stuffed animal of "Angel" , one of the dogs from "Lady & the Tramp 2". This is all that her daughter wants for Christmas. I (and many others) have tried to help by searching on & offline for one. They were sold at the Disney Store for about a month when the straight to video sequel came out.

I have pretty much given up. All my web searches lead me nowhere. The only toy of Angel I have found is a McDonalds toy. That is not the one I'm looking for. I've tried Ebay, yahoo , metacrawler, google, ask.com, everything.

Does anyone have any suggestions, know of a better way to search online, have an Angel they are willing to sell, or anything? I figured I'd ask you guys here since I've yet to see a request for anything to be found online go unfulfilled. Of course, I think this is the first time I've ever not been able to find something online for sale that I was looking for.

I don't know why but I really want to help this woman find this stuffed animal for her little girl.

Anyone?

You did try the Disney site right?

Yup. Even tried calling Disney Merchandise. Nothing. The only way to find one of these now is online through secondhand sale.

As penance for my dumb joke in the other thread, I looked at 165 entries for "Angel Plush" on ebay, thinking people maybe had a poor description of the varmint. Have pity on my soul, people: that was not a fun experience.

I did, however, come across this gem.

The closest I could find to what you're looking for is this hideous specimen. Never having seen the movie, I don't know what the dog looks like; I hope for your friend's sake it's not like this.

Assuming the absence of such a thing, you may want to suggest to your e-aquaintence to commission one from a toymaker who does such things.

However, seeing as it is Dec 9, she might be out of luck. Very sorry.

Thanks all.

BiggusGeekus - do you know of anyone who does this? It's worth a shot and I know this woman will pay pretty much anything to make her daughters Christmas.

I have no earthly idea. However, give me a sock and a magic marker and I'll give it a go.

The trick, to my mind, is to get someone good that can produce something that is a close facsimilie. I've no doubt you can find some crafts-fair person who can whip something up, but you'll probably wind up with something between "real nice" and "BG's sock puppet".

Best of luck.

This is a longshot, but you might want to try on sluggy.com or sluggy.net to find someone to make it.

Perhaps the person who makes the Bun-Bun and Kiki plushes, though she might be full up with christmas orders for those dolls.

Figured you did but sometime you have to ask.
