How many jellybeans did ya say, Banker Bob?... Holy mackerel! Don’t mention this to Riggy – he’ll eat them and be on a sugar high until next Cartoonival… 

It's days like today that I'm profoundly proud to be President of the Toon Council! Thanks to your generosity, Toontown's first Gags ‘n Gears for Good campaign is complete, and has been a smashing success. Toymaker Toons at The Gag Factory are already hard at work stuffing over 2,000 plushies: 1,024 for Doctor Surlee and 1,374 for Lord Lowden Clear!

With that preposterous amount of plushies sold, the Toontown Community raised $21,450.92 for Child’s Play Charity! Even Banker Bob had trouble counting how many jellybeans that converts to.

On top of that downright dog-on delightful donation, every single Stretch Goal was met! Watching the plushie totals rise was thrilling, though I was a little nervous for Doctor Surlee… I’m so glad he made it! I know a thing or two about what it's like being the underdog in a campaign...

In recognition of this outstanding effort, the Toon Council will release these stretch goal rewards throughout summer. They’ll be available to ALL Toons, even if you didn’t buy a plushie! You can expect:

• A backstage blog post showing how the plushies were made will be released! Loony Labs has some cool science secrets on P.L.U.S.H-ification!
• Doctor Surlee’s Cutout and Lord Lowden Clear’s SOS Cards are coming back for all of Toontown! Those who purchased plushies will have redemption codes emailed to them by Makeship, and some special ToonTasks are being crafted for everyone else. Stay TOONed!
• A remastered Doctor Surlee Trading Card and a brand-new Lord Lowden Clear Trading Card are coming soon. Postmaster Pete tells me you’ll be able to find them in Toontown Member Mailers after ToonFest Orlando!

In other news, Doctor Surlee is back to his standard, silly self! Considering his cuddly condition, Doctor Surlee cooperated to craft a concoction to create the conclusive cure! It did give off a rather yucky whiff of an old rubber boot and jellybeans, so we had to break out the firehoses to clean out his mouth after he drank it! Sure, glasses of water might have worked too, but you know what I say: Never pass up an opportunity to use a firehose.

Lord Lowden Clear, however, seems to have gone deep undercover – and not the one in Dreamland. I wonder when he'll return from his plushie pursuit?

Before I go, I’ve got a surprise for you as thanks for making this campaign such a success. Here’s a special sneak peek at the Lord Lowden Clear and Doctor Surlee Trading Cards! Take care, Toons, and do come visit me in my office at Toon Hall soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand you may have many questions about our latest collaboration with Makeship, and we’ll try and answer as many as we can here! If you have a question that isn’t answered here, please feel free to email us at support@toontownrewritten.com.

What is Makeship?

Makeship is a crowdfunding platform that collaborates with creators to bring their designs and characters to life! Makeship works with creators like Toontown Rewritten to design and create high-quality, limited edition custom products. 

Toontown Rewritten has partnered with Makeship to bring Lord Lowden Clear and Doctor Surlee to life in plushie form.

What is Child's Play Charity?

Child's Play Charity is dedicated to improving the lives of children and teens in hospitals around the world through the power of play! In Toontown, we live by the mantra that a "happy Toon is a healthy Toon", and so does Child's Play! 

Through our partnership with Makeship, we're donating all of our proceeds from the sale of Lord Lowden Clear and Doctor Surlee plushies directly to Child's Play Charity to support their work.

I purchased a plushie! How will I get my rewards?

If you purchased a plushie, you will be emailed an exclusive code by Makeship soon, so stay TOONed!

When are they shipping?

Makeship currently estimates that the plushies will begin shipping around mid-August, but you can check your Order History under the "My Account" section on Makeship's website for more information.

Will there be more orders in the future?

Unfortunately, Lord Lowden Clear and Doctor Surlee plushies will not be available to order in the future – their campaign has already ended!

We would love the opportunity to bring more of our characters to life in the future, so stay TOONed! While we have not announced any future campaigns yet, you'll be able to find out about any potential future campaigns on our social media pages and the Toontown Blog. 

How will I get the stretch goal rewards if I didn't purchase a plushie?

Stay TOONed! Toon HQ is currently working with Loony Labs and the Toon Resistance to work out how Lord Lowden Clear’s SOS Cards and Doctor Surlee's Cutout will be available for all players to acquire. Make sure to keep an eye on the Toontown Blog and our social media pages for more information!

When will the trading cards be available in Toontown Member Mailers?

The Lord Lowden Clear and Doctor Surlee Trading Cards will be available in Toontown Member Mailers shortly after ToonFest Orlando ends in August!

Can you turn my Toon into a plushie?

Unfortunately, it's not possible for us to create plushies of everyone's Toons. That doesn't mean you can't, though! If you knit, crochet, create, or commission a plushie of your own Toon, please feel free to share a photo with us!

How much money is Toontown Rewritten making from this?

Toontown Rewritten isn't making any money at all! All of the money raised from this campaign was donated directly from Makeship to Child's Play Charity - we aren't touching a single simoleon!
