About a million times worse than Beanie Babies for the cuteness factor:

I imagine that this is what Werewolf Girl has nightmares about.

And so we move one step closer to "Lovely Bears", as seen on Futurama.

Gawd, don't show them to my daughter. I'd prefer to not have to buy any.

"Then, when they're a year old, we pick the cuddly-wuddliest of them all, and then STUFF them full of flame retardant love fluff." "Awwwww!"

No joke! They are $10.00 CND for a set of ONLY TWO of the dolls. They are about the height of the old Smurf resin figs. The furniture/rooms (which are also that same scale) are horrendous in cost. They market it like Brio (the horrendously over-priced wooden train system) by having little playsets set up in the stores for the kids to play with. BASTARD TOY STORES AND MARKETING EXECS!!!!

The comments about Anna, while saddening, are more than likely accurate.

Looks like 'em to me. Those things were a brilliant racket. Make one doll, dress it up 50 different ways, and sell it as a different character. Step 3: Profit.

No, PLUSHIES are ruining everything. I had a family friend come over for Thanksgiving dinner one year, he excused himself to go to the restroom and is gone a while, that night, my kid sister has 'sticky animals" and can't figure out why..... ick.

If you see these "things" in the store: 1) Check for in store cameras 2) Go get lighter fluid 3) Roast the things and make sure your children watch 4) If any salesperson sees the fire exclaim loudly that the forces of GOD has smote these evil things and has returned them to hell. No jury on earth will convict you.
