Sonic the Hedgehog Head Plush: Sonic the Headshog?

Posted on by

I don’t know about you, but I’m used to seeing Sonic the Hedgehog with his head attached to his body. But if you don’t mind having a decapitated blue hedgehog head sitting on your couch, then you might want to grab this colorful plush toy from Tomy and Club Mocchi- Mocchi.

The 15″ plush collectible is a Target exclusive and sells for $29.99. The soft and squishy hedgehog head looks incredibly huggable and would look great in your game room alongside all of those other video game characters who have had their heads separated from their bodies. What? You don’t have any other plush heads lying around? Well, you’d better get your scissors out and start cutting up your stuffed animal collection now.

I think that Sonic’s Spin Dash move would be much more efficient if he was only a head.

Stormy the Cat is Pusheen’s Plushy Sister

Posted on by

Pusheen the cat is one of those characters that turns up in all sorts of products. You might not know that Pusheen has a sister called Stormy. Stormy looks just like her sibling, only she’s fluffy like a sheep.

Stormy also reminds me of this girl that rode on my bus when I was in fourth grade with the same name. Stormy was a 7th grader and was kind of hot but also kind of an asshole. At least Stormy the cat won’t try and beat me up because I didn’t think she was the cutest girl in the neighborhood.

Plush Stormy has no hard parts, so it’s cool for kids 1 and up, and definitely won’t throw any punches. Stormy the cat is going to launch in March 2017 and will cost you $19.99 at Entertainment Earth. Should Stormy ask you if she is the cutest cat, just say “yes.”

Feisty Pets Are All Cute, Then RAWRRRRR!

Posted on by

Growing up, we had this tiny fluffy Maltese dog, and it was a vindictive little asshole. If you made him mad, he would creep up on the back of the couch all lovie dovie, nuzzle your ear, and then bite the shit out of your neck. If there was a stuffed animal equivalent of that dog, these Feisty Pets would be it.

They look all cute at first glance, but when you hold them too long they get nasty and bear their fangs. I imagine this is the same face that Maltese had right as it went for my neck. To make these things change their demeanor, all you have to do is hug them.

You can get bear, cat, dog, or monkey Feisty Pets, and each angry plush is 8.5-inches tall. Each one will set you back $19.99(USD) each at ThinkGeek. These things remind me of Gizmo if you feed him after midnight.

Nintendo Switch Puppy Plush: Canine Console

Posted on by

The Nintendo Switch is the company’s highly anticipated new game console. While lots of folks are just excited by its gameplay possibilities, other fans are already creating fan art based on the theory that the controller looks like the head of a cute dog. That’s why @TheAnnaTheRed created this hilarious plush toy.

You have to admit, this plush is downright adorable. I bet Nintendo is sad that they didn’t think of it first. This would have been one heck of an official mascot for the new device. It’s awesome. Plus they could have sold a ton of these toys.

You can take it for a walk, play games, and cuddle it in bed on cold nights. It really is the perfect console.

Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty, Little Ball of… Whaaaa!?

Posted on by

What is this you ask? It’s a cat with ten tentacles. I don’t know why either. It’s called the Orange Tabby Tentacle Kitty. Would make much more sense if it had nine tentacles and was called the Orange Tabby Nintacle Kitty, but maybe that’s just me.

We could also call it Cathulhu or maybe Catapus. I have questions about how a cat with tentacles would work. I mean, would it always land on its tentacles? Can it squirt ink out of its butt? The upside would be no more scratched furniture I guess. Unless all of those tentacles had claws, of course.

Tentacle Kitty is weird, but oddly cute. You can get yours at ThinkGeek for $29.99(USD). If you give this as a gift this Christmas, be prepared to answer all the questions it brings with it.

Build-a-Bear Workshop to Shock Wallets in 2016 with Pikachu Stuffy

Posted on by

Up until she turned 10, my daughter was all about the stuffed animals. Apparently 10 is the age where stuffed animals become stuff for babies. Before that time, we were in the Build-a-Bear workshop at the mall so frequently that the girls working the counter knew her by name. Despite her outgrowing such things, I can only assume when this Pikachu hits the expensive stuffed animal store, I’ll probably be back there.

Starting next year in Build-a-Bear stores in North America, Europe, and Australia fans of Pokémon will be able to choose Pikachu. Not only can you stuff the little yellow whatsit, there will also be accessories to go with him.

Those accessories include a Poke Ball hoodie, Charizard costume, and a annoying as hell sound chip that we assume will say “Pika Pika”. Buyers of the animal will get a free Pokémon trading card too.

Breaking Bad Pink Teddy Bear: Heisenbear

Posted on by

Breaking Bad was a great show that showed how a normal guy in a bad situation could go totally bonkers and turn into a drug kingpin. If you watched the show, you will remember that iconic pink teddy bear floating in the pool that had a missing eye and ear burned off. heisenbearmagnify

If you ever thought, hey I want a burnt up teddy bear, now is your chance. ThinkGeek has the Breaking Bear, or Heisenbear as I prefer to call it, available to buy. it has faux fur in pink and white. It also comes with a single eye and burn marks. The bear measures 18″ x 9″ x 5″ and has small parts so don’t give it to children. The rather nasty looking bear can be had for $29.99(USD) right now.

Ted R-Rated Talking Plush: Not For Kids, Perfect for Kids at Heart

Posted on by

Everybody has one: a toy from their childhood that will always have a special significance in their lives. For John Bennett, it was Ted, a stuffed teddy bear that came to life after John wished for it one Christmas night.

If you saw the movie, then you saw firsthand how awesome having a stuffed teddy bear for a best friend is. Not so awesome for your girlfriend at the outset, but at least you’ll know that everything will work out somehow at the very end.

Ted R Rated Talking Plush1

Now on to the good news: if you’ve never had a Ted before in your life (or lost it after your mom threw it out when you went off to college), then you can get one again thanks to ThinkGeek.

Ted R Rated Talking Plush

They’re selling a miniature stuffed Ted teddy bear that utters a few choice vulgar phrases with every squeeze. It’s smaller than the Ted featured in the movie, but at least the voice is as real as it gets, as it’s provided by the one and only Seth MacFarlane. And despite the bleeps you hear in the video below, rest assured that the actual teddy bear is uncensored.

The Ted R-Rated Talking Plush is available from ThinkGeek for $14.99(USD).

Firefox G-Fox: Plush Edition (hands-on)

Posted on by

With the introduction of Google's Chrome and stepped-up games from the likes of Internet Explorer and Safari, Firefox is arguably not quite the darling of the browser wars it was when it first hit the scene in 2003. And while Mozilla has certainly made progress on that front, the organization understands that diversifying is an important factor in the future success of the company, first through Thunderbird and more recently through the Firefox OS, a mobile operating system targeted toward users in developing nations. G-Fox, meanwhile, marks a decidedly different direction for the foundation, which has made its name in the world of software. It's an adorable attempt, perhaps, to take the world's bedrooms and playrooms by storm.

The plush is the real-world port of G-Fox, Mozilla Online China's large-headed, big-eyed take on the American mascot, Kit. The fox was first spotted in the wild at last year's Mobile Asia Expo in Shanghai. Mozilla Online wasn't talking it up too much at the event, but naturally, we couldn't wait to get our hands on an early build. And for a first-generation product in a new space, we have to say, in the whole time we've been playing around with G-Fox, we've yet to encounter a single crash or slowdown in spite of extensive squeezing, head patting and tossing up in the air, adorably.

Zombie Teddy Bears: the Walking Ted

Posted on by

I personally didn’t think that anything could be worse than human zombies. Now I know better. Zombie teddy bears are truly terrifying. Just look at this demented bear. He wants your brains. Even a headshot won’t kill him, because his head is just full of stuffing.

These gruesome undead teddy bears are the work of Phillip Blackman, a British illustrator who enjoys turning teddy bears into horrifying zombies. You can’t reason with them, you can’t cuddle with them and they can’t be hugged. They deal only in death.

Their goal? To populate the world with teddy bear zombies and use humans for slaves. Have fun sleeping after seeing these guys.

You can see more of Phillip’s demented teddies here. If you’d like to permanently scar someone, you can even buy one for yourself. They’re currently sold out, but keep your eye out over on the Undead Teds’ Etsy shop for more zombie teddies, as the infection continues to spread.
