Oh no!!! That's such a shame! I don't know if it helps but I use my large Rexy charm 24/7 and she's been bumped a few times without issue, tho I do try and be aware of her when grabbing my bag so she doesn't get caught on anything. I think getting caught on something is what could break her [emoji848] But I know what you mean, if you can't enjoy something then what's the point?

Do you think this particular model feels a bit more fragile than the others?? I feel so disappointed on your behalf :sad:

That's great that you've had good luck with your Rexy's bumping without issue! Yup, the awareness I'd need to safely wear her would cause me some anxiety -- not something I'd welcome.

I can't compare her to the other models, I only have a tiny metal Steggy that came with my Bear Rogue. But I am eyeing the two leather smaller ones (one is red/orange and the other blue/purple, I think). I forgot if they're considered small or medium but the dimensions are way smaller. I love the color combos of those, not so much that they're a Dino.

Do you own one of those smaller ones?

Would you keep Rexy as a display piece instead of attaching her to your bags? I can totally see how the size would be really cumbersome on a bag.

I don't like the Dinos enough to display them, I know a few gals on here enjoy that. Wait, are you one of them -- sorry, I forgot who that is. If I were a collector that way I'd have to have them ALL!! YIkes!

Nah, I don't even own any yet. :(

Are you going to size down to a medium or small Rexy charm, or are you kind of done with them due to their delicate nature?

He is cute, but I can understand how hard it would be to keep him from knocking things off shelves at the grocery store or some cute fragile things! And I'm clumsy anyway so I know I would ram into something! For shame.....run free Rexy!

Ha, I'm your Clumsy twin then! Rexy will be running free shortly -- don't want to miss my 30 day return window!

I'm done with ANYTHING thats that delicate (good word, thx). I need an IRL view of the next size down -- if they're small enough they would not be an issue -- this one wobbles just when you touch it lightly -- it's not defective or anything -- just the nature of it. They'd definitely be a great shelf sitter on a stable surface.

Sounds like you'd LIKE to own some Rexy's. Just too pricey?

Yep, exactly. I haven't been able to bring myself to spend on them yet.

I have the pink/orange Steggy charm. I think he's the perfect size. Fits nicely on my regular Rogue and isn't overpowering. He also seem to be pretty sturdy and I haven't worried about bumping him into anything yet. Is this one of the ones you were talking about? If so, I definitely recommend him. The size is much more manageable as is the price! The blue/purple Tricky is also really cute - same size.

Count me as one too! I love all my Rexy's- I only carry my metal ones on bags- have not rallied the courage to try the leather ones. But I am just as happy to keep them at home to look at and play with- they do make me smile and sometimes that is enough :)

I agree, only the metal ones are on my bags as well. I keep my Steggy coin purse by my computer as a cheerful companion! I hate to think of her plates and tail getting bent or squished.

Yeah, I mean bags need to be practical at the end of the day and if a charm is holding you back then it's an issue.

I haven't got any of the other Rexy charms besides the big one (it's the burgandy/black) and I have a steggy coin purse who I also use on my bag as a charm. She's very handy!

I love the metal charms too! They're cute and sturdy. I'd love to get one but they're almost $200 here :(

If you pick up a different charm be sure to post pics!! :)
