im sleepy right now so i cant be bothered to format an entire post but a buddy of mine said i should make a list of plushies i dont own, but i want them. some of these ill probably never get but others i might
theyre in no specific order, just lumping them together by where theyre from tbh. Except shane, hes always my #1 dream plushie
#1 - Sanshee's Shane collector plush.
i want him so bad. genuinely. dream plush right here. but theyre never in stock and im not paying hundreds of dollars for one (i do not have hundreds of dollars)
#2 - any of the sanshee stardew chickens. Especially the blue one
I'd like a blue one the most, but its never in stock. also Sanshee shipping is VERY expensive (40 australian dollars or more, usually)
I'm going to PAX melbourne this year hopefully, if Sanshee are there and they have some of these guys I might snag one.
#3 - the sanshee green junimo pillow
honestly id fw any of these guys heavy. i just have a soft spot for green junimos.
#4 - sanshee's monika collectors plush
she's not even my favourite one. theres just something that makes me deeply want this thing. im not overly enthusiastic about any of the ddlc characters, but i guess yuri is my favourite? or sayori.
I just think it'd be really funny to throw monika at things
#5 - The sanshee grey scavenger plush
i got a bad past with sanshee's rain world plushies (in that i dont think the slugpups are very good) so i wont be buying any unless i see them in real life first. (either by going to PAX this year or meeting someone w them)
Sanshee makes good plushies, I just was not satisfied with the slugpup's shape and things, which probably wouldnt be an issue with the lizards or scavengers but as i mentioned previously, sanshee shipping is hella expensive
#6 - Fangamer's lancer plush
I dont have many words. just look at this beast. Lancer is my favourite deltarune character
#7 - The fangamer krobus plush
like my 2nd favourite stardew character. id like to have this thing watch over my domain as i sleep (because krobus does not sleep)
#8 - the fangamer Beatrix plush
i played the first slime rancher game when it came out. ever since, ive been a big slime rancher fan and enjoyer of things. I somehow do not own any plushies from the franchise. Im quite fond of beatrix lebeau
#9 - any of the hollow knight critter clings
hornet and myla are my favourites, but honestly i ADORE all of them. 10/10 would take on adventures with me
#10 - Nintendo's purple pikmin plush
my favourite kind of pikmin, it looks adorably zoinked and i think they belong in my home.
#11 - Nintendo's smallfry plush
im going to throw him against a wall so violently that his atoms pass through it
#12 - Nintendo's Audie plush
I've loved animal crossing since i was a little boy playing wild world on my ds. i'd honestly love any animal crossing plush but audie is quite lovely. i would take her to see the sunset at least once, i think
honourable mention - any pokemon plushie ever.
especially slowpoke. i love slowpoke. i also love smoliv. and basically every dragon type. i also really want an appletun

ifear she is a bootleg but I love her all the same💔
this is a great plushie!! im honestly a big fan of bootlegs i find them really fun.
honestly she looks very very good, i think this critter is quite amusing to look at. She reminds me of a deer with the eye placement, eyes of a prey animal

This old kingdom... A terrible thing awakens. I can smell it in the air... This official Hollow Knight plush was prototyped by Saber MurphyÂ
The most recent addition to my collection. I'm a certified hornet fan so I'd been looking at this little thing for a little while now, and after buying other fangamer hollow knight plushies for a friend I just had to go back for her! detailed thoughts under the break
She's very high quality, with appealing fabric textures and true-to-advertised proportions and size. I could not be happier with her, she's genuinely a very very nice plushie.
Affordability:
She's 28usd, which is similar in price to many of fangamer's plushies. I paid about 40usd (with shipping and taxes) because i'm international. It came to 64aud. Compared to other places though, this isn't that bad. I'm used to usually having to pay at least 80aud for an international fandom plush of this size. Shipping itself was affordable, at 9usd (~15aud) for relatively fast international shipping. Its definitely very good compared to other similar places.
I would definitely consider fangamer to be international buyer friendly, and recommend them if you want good quality fandom merch without paying an outrageous price for shipping.
Fangamer also offers discounts if you have multiple plushies in the same order, when I got hornet I got her by herself but my previous fangamer order had 5usd taken off of one of the plushies because there were two from the hollow knight collection.
Cuddleability:
Personally, I find her to be very cuddleable. She fits very well in my arms and can be held with relative ease, though her head can sometimes make it slightly difficult.
Her body shape is generally pretty flat, and she's very top-heavy. This means that she's very good at just lying on top of you, as she doesn't roll at all or slide off. I found she fits very nicely in my lap as well.
her entire body is soft, and her cloak is made of a stretchy material that makes her quite comfortable against the body, she's stuffed enough to hold her shape but isnt rigid either. Her head adorably bobbles if you pick her up.
The magnet on her back is strong enough to hold the needle on very well while you hold her, and it hasn't fallen off of that back magnet once. I find that it will come off when held in one hand, though. The needle has two magnets inside it (one for the handle, one in the blade for positioning on her back) and she can also put two hands on the needle in certain poses because of this, which holds the needle more firmly.
Equippabilty:
She's very grabbable. She's large enough to be grasped from basically any angle, which makes for some very funny ways to hold her.
Her body is just large enough for me to hold her with two hands, and her arms are angled in a way that allows you to hold her under the armpits with relative ease.
her head is also very nicely shaped for grabbing, you can grab her by one horn or two, or even just grab her little face.
Her neck is decently far from her shoulders, which makes throttling her very easy, almost natural.
You can also grab her around her arms and body, which reminds me of a cat being restrained by a vet.
Sleepability:
She's generally pretty easy to cuddle to sleep. She can definitely get lost in blankets but she's large enough to be held pretty firmly.
I found the most effective way to do it was by sleeping on my side, with my arm over her. She ended up on my pillow at some point but im a pretty active sleeper.
I did set her needle aside, because I dont want it getting lost. So im not sure if it wouldve stayed on, but probably not.
She didnt have any issues with being uncomfortable, even with her large head she didnt give me trouble falling asleep or getting comfortable. Also her fabric is very nice to touch.
Throwability:
She's not as throwable as youd assume, she's pretty top heavy which does make a pretty funny thump when thrown though.
her weight is so uneven that its difficult to throw her satisfyingly, but she does flop over like a piece of toast if you stand her up which makes up for it.
My thoughts:
She's a very good plushie, very true to her in game design and very appealing to look at. Her magnets are strong, and all of the stitching feels solid. She's a very good plushie of hornet, and would be great in the collection of anyone who likes hollow knight.
She arrived very quickly, and I also received a sticker and art card in the package.
I'm overall very satisfied with her and would recommend her to anyone who likes hollow knight or her as a character.
Hello! this is my sideblog where I talk about plushies and how I feel about them. All ratings are for fun and do not reflect on any problems i have with the creators of the products (unless specified otherwise, for whatever reason)
My main is @tomfoooleryy
I will be rating plushies (usually ones I own or have seen in real life, for fairness) based on a 5 point system. They will be rated on:
-Affordabilty
-Cuddleability
-Equippability
-Sleepability
-Throwability
I will be honest, and if I dislike something about a plushie you like, that is not an insult toward you or your taste, we simply have different tastes in plushies. You're welcome to disagree with me though! I enjoy considering other perspectives.
My askbox is open, and you are allowed to submit plushies in there for me to talk about, I cant rate them with the 5 point system because ive usually never seen them, but I will give my thoughts.
No posting schedule im just gonna post whenever I want. maybe ill have a queue though?
As for tagging things, ill try to follow these tags:
#plush rambles - general talk outside of review posts
#plush review - my formal posts where I rate and review the plushies
#submitted plush - anything sent to me in an ask or dms
#asks - asks in general
