Giant Microbes

2003-05-22 21:33:09.599314+02 by Dan Lyke 3 comments

Via Borklog, GIANTmicrobes are plush, stuffed, cuddly... well... giant microbes. Orthomyoxvirus, Rhinovirus (I bet you could adapt this into a cute cuddly SARS[Wiki] virus), Shigella, and Streptococcus. Best yet, the whole set is just $20.

I'd get 'em, but Charlene already thinks I'm weird for my plush Cthulhu and the switchblade toting rabbit, Bun Bun from Sluggy Freelance (yes, I know, he's actually some obscure subgenus of rabbit).

A friend of mine got his (very) young daughter a three-tentacled plus Cthulhu. It was pretty amusing to see the kiddie sucking on a tentacle. Personally, I want a (T4) Bacteriophage plushie.

No worse than my stuffed penguins.. or my pride and joy: a stuffed Bill the Cat.

Bahgwan Bill, oh where have you gone? We hardly knew ye...

I love my plush Bill. But I'm the only one who seems to know/remember who he is :-(
