Stitch Toy from Disney's Lilo and Stitch

I certainly was quite taken by this little fellow!

Many character toys are unlicensed or badly made, but this is a very realistic version of a popular cartoon character. I almost expect him to tear up my house in a frenzy as he searches for Elvis recordings!

How Now Blue Cow ~ Not to be Confused with a Giraffe

For ages I really thought this was a blue giraffe! I guess it was because of his brown spots. However I finally realised he is a cow, which apparently was obvious to everyone else from the start. Silly me! The short neck should have been the main clue, but if he was blue and not yellow, why should his neck not be shorter as well? Nevertheless he is soft and silky, obviously a bovine trait, and a cute addition to my plush toy collection.

This Tiger is Threatening to be Terribly Romantic

This friendly looking white tiger toy is just so appealing. He is carrying a red satin heart to show is more terribly romantic than terribly dangerous. He is very soft indeed and his paws have cute heart accents on the pads. I have another tiger toy I must show you later, that I bought at the Siegfried and Roy extravaganza just six months before it closed down. I had wanted to see their show ever since I was a child, so the white tigers have always held a special fascination for me. And I am glad I got there in time!
