✦ AIRMINE ALCOVE SOFT LAUNCH IS NOW OPEN ✦
A Toyhouse World for Winged Wonders, Windborn Lore & Community Creation
I am excited to announce the soft launch public opening of the Airmine Alcove World — the official home for the Airmine species!
The world is currently in early access development, and many pages are still being filled with art, subspecies info, and cultural information— but I'm inviting everyone to explore early, contribute, and settle in before the official launch!

Create your own wind-gliding wonder and join the drift!
We’ll be opening with a limited-time MYO (Make Your Own) Airmine event to help populate the canopy with new characters from every corner of the windswept world.
You do NOT need to be a master designer or lore expert — we welcome all experience levels, and we’re here to help you shape your first Airmine with care and creativity. Stay tuned for a full event announcement soon!
What is a MYO?
MYO stands for Make Your Own—this event allows participants to create their very own Airmine, a semi-volant, ferret-like species with rich lore and elemental subspecies.
This event is beginner-friendly, open to all, and requires no prior ownership.
What You’ll Get:
During the launch window, each participant will receive:
✦ 1 Free Common MYO Slot
Includes access to standard Airmine traits and lore for any of the five base subspecies: Glade, Tide, Crag, Dune, or Glow.
Take a leap. Join the drift. Welcome to the Alcove.
Please be wary of doing business with user Alexdiren, I inquired about a design I had been interested in that they were asking for a voucher of 300-400$ for (https://toyhou.se/20486206.basil)

I offered up 400$ not knowing the original value they paid for the character as it was not listed up front, I then DM'd them asking for them to let me know when the other party was ready to trade.

They got back to me saying there was a different artist they were interested in getting a design from, and asked if I could do more than 400$, in good faith I said for them to just let me know the price, which ended up being between 400$-900$ for a Kitkaloid design

At this point I decided to back out and asked about the original value of the character in the first place, in which they replied they paid 300$ initially

Before I could reply they then blocked me and put the character up for trade again.
While inflating may not be against the original designers TOS (as I cannot find one) I don't think it's appropriate regardless and vouchers aren't really a way to circumvent this. In the end it's my fault for not doing my due diligence and asking about the original value before hand, as I was just excited to try and get this character as it's been a dreamie of mine for a long time.
None of these are in any particular order
