I bypassed Malaysian resellers to get the Jellycat Sky Dragon from US stores

The Sky Dragon obsession in 2026

I have seen many plushie trends come and go, but the Jellycat Sky Dragon is currently dominating the market in a way that reminds me of the vintage Beanie Baby craze. In 2026, the demand in Malaysia and China has reached a fever pitch. This specific design, with its ethereal blue fur and sparkling wings, is often sold out within minutes of hitting local shelves. My experience shows that the 'plushie economy' isn't just about toys; it is about high-value collectibles that hold their worth.

More about shipping to Malaysia

Collectors I talk to are frustrated by local stock shortages. This is why I have turned my attention to the US market. High-end department stores like Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus frequently receive restocks that aren't available in Southeast Asia.

Why US stores are my go-to for Jellycat

I prefer shopping in the US because the inventory is more stable. When I shop US stores, I get access to the full Jellycat range, not just the leftovers that make it to Malaysia. However, many of these retailers do not ship directly to Kuala Lumpur, or if they do, the costs are prohibitive. I found that using a tax-free US address via a freight forwarder is the most logical solution.

I use comGateway to manage my US purchases. They provide a warehouse address in Oregon, which means I pay 0% US sales tax on my Sky Dragon. This savings alone often covers a significant portion of my international shipping rates. If I find a store that won't accept my local payment method, I simply use the BuyForMe service to let their team handle the transaction for me. Check our guide on assisted purchase options for more details.

Shipping logistics for Malaysia

When I ship items halfway across the world, I need reliability. I've found that securing the right packaging is half the battle.

Once my items reach the warehouse, I use the shipping calculator to get a clear picture of my total spend before I commit to the final delivery.

Shipping Estimates for Jellycat Sky Dragon

I have calculated the following estimates based on the physical specifications of the Jellycat Sky Dragon (Medium size) to help you plan your budget.

• Box Weight: Approx. 0.5 kg (1.1 lbs).
• Box Dimensions: Approx. 50cm x 15cm x 12cm. The Sky Dragon is long and requires a medium-sized rectangular box to maintain its shape.
• Volumetric Warning: This is a light but elongated item. Because international shipping companies charge based on the larger of actual weight vs. volumetric weight, I recommend consolidating this with other items. If shipped alone, you will likely be charged for a higher volumetric weight than the actual 0.5 kg.
• Battery Check: This item contains no lithium batteries. There are no special hazardous material restrictions for shipping this plushie.

You can verify these figures against the current shipping fees by visiting the international shipping rates page.

Avoiding the Malaysian markup

I have noticed that local resellers in Malaysia often list the Sky Dragon at double or triple its retail price. By sourcing directly from the US, I bypass these middlemen entirely. Read more: Sourcing the Jellycat Sky Dragon directly from US retailers to bypass Malaysian markups. Even after adding international shipping, the total cost is significantly lower than what I would pay on local secondary marketplaces.

Managing Malaysian customs and taxes

I always stay informed about import duties to ensure my package isn't held up at the border. In Malaysia, the De Minimis value is RM500. If my total shipment value (including shipping) stays below this, I generally avoid GST/VAT or other customs tax. However, if I am buying multiple Jellycats, I make sure to check the latest rules on import tax to stay compliant. Keeping my shipments within the import duties threshold is my top tip for keeping the hobby affordable.

My final piece of advice is to act fast when you see a restock notification. I use comGateway because their processing speed is vital when I need to get my items out of the US and into my hands in Malaysia quickly.
