Dronkey Dreams

Looking at mythical animals, we can not get much more mythical that this!
I am unsure whether this is actually Eclair, Bananas, Peanut, Parfait, Coco or Debbie. However, this little cutie is easily recognisable as a dronkey, one of the hybrid offspring of Donkey and Dragon from the Shrek stories. All the dronkeys love their parents, especially their garrulous father, so I was lucky to find this one at an internet auction site so far from home!

Unicorn Dreams

I thought this gentle soft plush unicorn was a charmingly cute toy when I found it patiently waiting for me on an internet auction site.
He is just so soft to touch, and his furry feet, mane and tail provide extra gentleness. I liked his delicate sky blue colour with its faint iridescent sheen that is accented by pastel pink sparkly paws and horn. He looks so tranquil while sitting quietly there, that he seems to emit soft vibes of relaxation therapy. Of course he is willing to share them with a silky cuddle!

Bears are the All Time Favourite Toys

This is such a cute fawn brown bear with its purple bow.
She is unbelievably soft. A cute bear face is embroidered above her heart and she is wearing a distinctive metallic purple and silver bow behind her ear. Many plush bear toys are lovable but this must be one of the cutest. She definitely is one of the softest, despite having quite shortly cropped fur. I found her at an online auction site but there may be some siblings left...

Garfield the Cat

Garfield the Cat is a character we can all admit to knowing. Even if we do not know the answer to his eternal question!

I do have another smaller Garfield character toy wearing a different shirt which I shall show you later. I bought the one shown here on an internet online auction site but the other was given to me by a friend.

Felix the Cat

Another cute character toy has come my way at an online auction.
And who is going to admit to being old enough to recognise this little guy?!

A Friendly Sheep Inviting Ewe to Play

The main job of this cheerful chappy seems to be encouraging you to smile.
He is just so soft and fluffy and his happy grin is extra cute. I should have bought a flock of these charming feel good toys from the internet auction!

EB the Easter Bunny from the Movie Hop

This is another character toy I bought from an internet auction site, sadly not for myself. EB the Easter Bunny stars in 'Hop'.
A friend and I often watch movies together and she was particularly taken by this cute rabbit. So I bought him for her birthday, having to ship him in from the USA. However, I do not think I can wait until later this year to give him to her, so next time we go out he will have to change homes. If not, he will be staying here with me! EB is about six inches tall. There was a larger version but that one was not as well crafted and it was more like a bunny that merely resembled EB whereas this one is just like him.
