Plague Doctor Plush Toy, 16" Big Weighted Spook Cute Stuffed Plushie Pillow Doll, Soft Large Fluffy Halloween Hugging Cushion Decor, Present for Kids and Adults

[Note: This was a Halloween gift for a plushie-loving family member, who also wrote this review. 🙂] This is a VERY unique little Plague Doctor plush - he’s wonderfully spooky, but positivity endearing! Not scary at all, and the perfect Halloween gift for any child or adult who loves cute, soft plush critters. Right away, this fellow captured my heart. He’s definitely not your average run-of-he mill plague doctor - he’s got a seriously unique design, and he’s super-plump and huggable! Firstly, he’s wearing a monk’s robes, with a little ropy cord around his middle, and a golden cross embroidered very nicely on the very front of his collar (I absolutely LOVE this particular detail! He’s not a sketchy fellow - he’s definitely a sweet little healer!) He’s very plump, chubby, and full, with a big belly, and beans in his rounded bottom/base to give him a very nice weight. He is extremely soft, squishy, a great size, and such a huggable shape. He’s got cute three-digit paws that he can hug you back with, and he’s carrying a lantern around one wrist to bring healing light into the dark night - another fantastic detail! He’s got two stubby, tiny feet poking out from beneath the robe, on his base, his round pudgy tummy, and the most adorable face you could imagine - big round eyes embroidered with unique golden and white rings, and the cutest short lil’ beak! Most plague doctors (as depicted in fiction - plushies, and such media) typically have a white mask and/or a much longer beak, and definitely don’t have such an adorable face, monk robes, golden eye rings, or a pudgy body. He’s just so lovable! I also love the use of all different kinds of fabrics, and the embroidery, that went into making him. He’s a work of art, and such a charming, sweet little character! I couldn’t let go of him once I first opened the package and hugged him - he was even better than I imagined. I love him so much (and he gets along great with all my Hollow Knight plushies!) I realized when I got him that whomever designed him must have used a penguin plush pattern for his basic shape (his round, extraordinarily plump, chubby, rounded body, golden and white eye rings, short beak, and stubby feet), and added in a kindly little healer monk as well. Ingenious ideas! Who doesn’t love penguins!? I also have the very cute and cuddly “Squishables” Plague Doctor plush, but he doesn’t hold a candle to this guy (even though they’re both holding lanterns!). I would definitely recommend this plague doctor plushie if you’re trying to choose between the two - he’s cuter, more unique, and much more huggable and cuddly, in my opinion. The only small issue (as others here have mentioned) is his hat, which although is very well-made and realistic, is hollow and a bit stiff, and can get bent and crunched in shipping, particularly the brim. Though I think I got very lucky, as mine arrived in really good shape and wasn’t too smushed at all. The hat brim on mine is a tad bit rumpled still, but he retained his shape very well, and though the brim of his hat was slightly bent/wrinkled, it was fixable. If you can, I do recommend putting him in the dryer on AIR-DRY for about 10 mins (NO HEAT - you don’t want the plastic beans in his bottom to melt!) to puff and fluff him up a bit, and you can easily stick your fingers underneath his hollow hat and carefully even out the shape if it’s crunched down. I honestly cannot recommend this penguin-like plague doctor enough! He absolutely was made to be loved! Also a fantastic and exceptional Halloween gift that is sure to put a smile on anyone’s face.

My wife loves this. She is obsessed with plague doctors and this was the perfect cute stuffed version! Its nice and soft and feels to be quality!

He's not really weighted but I love him so much anyways. So cute and soft.

Seems well made. It went over so well with my son, may need to buy another one for my daughter! It's very soft. Weird to think of a plague doctor as cuddly, but this one definitely is.

Extremely cute! Amazing quality toy. Slightly weighted, pleasant to touch

Very comfortable and cute, it is definitely big and cuddly. The lantern fell off, but it actually works out if it does cause you can slip it on and off the hand

So cute and perfect size! Good quality as well.

Perfect gift and size

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

He’s so cute! Bigger than I expected. Extremely well made. Super soft and plush. Honestly well worth the price!

Big in size than what i expected, got as a Christmas gift for my mom. Excited to see what she thinks. He's super cute and great quality

Es perfecto, lo amo.

This plague buddy plushie is surprisingly better quality than expected. It's not all one mold, like most plushies, and the parts have separate definition, such as the waist band rope, that can be moved around to put it just right, and the lantern that is looped around the hand like a purse. The seller must have listened to the complaints about the shrink-wrap, as mine was just in a clear bag inside the box and not squished at all. The only thing I had to do was bend back the brim of the hat a bit, but other than that, he's perfect! Makes a unique gift for that little Wednesday Addams in your life. He's actually the new mascot for my horror themed sportscar. Shipping was super fast too...recommended!!
