Yo, some images of the the game I've been developing for myself, this will never be released to the public, just for me, I dont wanna be sued lol. It's an open world like BOTW, Meowscarada can climb, do quest, glides and so on.

I'm barely designing the first area tho haha, it has animations and a story with cinematics, the plot is that Meowscarada discovers an island with portals to different dimensions (sea, wind, lava and magic realms), you arrive with other Meowscaradas who will have different clothes and styles in the future.

Been wanting a big plushie for a while now, and finally decided to pull the trigger on this big fella! And I gotta say, I am EXTREMELY pleased!! It is HUGE, soft, and perfect to hug! Anyways, when deciding to buy her, I tried to search for info online (mostly Youtube and Reddit tho) but surprisingly couldn’t find much. So, I decided to fix that! Here I wrote a detailed (yet haphazardly organized) review on the plush, but feel free to ask for more info, photos, or videos!

So in total, I spent $241 on the plush on AliExpress by applying certain discounts ($40 off for some mid-year sale, and $20 off for using PayPal, plus small amount by using coins). $241 included tax, shipping (free), and tariffs which is an absolute STEAL for the size and quality. The plush itself weighs around 15-20lbs or 7-9kg, and it’s listed 170cm height is likely accurate, measured toe to mask/ear (reason I say likely is its hard to get her completely straight). It came with no holes or tears, a few loose threads that can be cut without unraveling the entire plush, and no bad smells.

She is pretty densely stuffed all around, especially in the hips and head. However, she is still plenty soft. Her neck, which is pretty thin, is extremely firm, I think they put some sort of cylindrical thing in there to support it, maybe dense foam? If I try to squish it, it has a little give, but not much. Overall though I am not comfortable holding it without supporting the head, but the reinforcement in it makes it much more sturdy. (Btw the easiest way to hold it is under the arms which is hilarious because you’re just giving her uppies lol.)

The neck support is the only internal support this plush has, it has no skeleton or anything that makes her posable, but I am not upset with that at all. The legs are actually less densely stuffed than the rest of the plush, meaning you can accidentally make her legs go backwards when moving her which looks.. uncanny, but doesn’t damage the plush. This is actually how she comes packaged, in a comically large sphere in a full scorpion pose. She got right to shape after being set free and filling with air. Though, parts of her (mostly the cape) were left wrinkly.

She comes packaged in two layers, the inner layer is a big semi-clear plastic bag, closed by being twisted around a bunch of times at the top, similar to how you may close a loaf of bread that you lost the twist tie for. After that, there are many layers of black duct tape compressing the plush. The duct tape layer actually arrived broken with the inner layer showing, however the inner layer was not compromised, so I wasn’t *too* worried about that. One thing though, it came with a minuscule dirt stain on her thigh that came off with water. Don’t know what it was but I suppose it’s worth mentioning, even though I didn’t care too much (plush I ordered from Walmart have had black oil stains on them, this was nothing compared to that).

It took a while to arrive, but it still arrived before the expected delivery date. Just for reference, I live in the middle of the USA, in Oklahoma. I ordered on June 16 and it arrived July 15, the estimated delivery date was July 17-22. Expect long periods with no updates, especially when it arrives at the airport in China, and when it supposedly “leaves” the country (it said it was leaving the country for about two weeks for me).

The plush itself has multiple different types of fabric, the primary fabric used for the body, arms (minus paws), most of the head and the flower for the light green and pink respectively, is fluffy and soft. It is very similar to the fur the Comfy Friends line has, it is heavenly soft and seems like it will maintain that softness over time. This fabric is very high quality. Then we have the fabric for the legs, paws + paw pads, mask, face + eyes, and back of the cape. This fabric is noticeably lower quality, but still seems good. It less soft but still comfortable, maybe just like a slightly lower quality of minky that the Jazwares uses. Finally my least favorite fabric of the plush, used for the light green inside the cape. The fabric itself isn’t terrible, it’s about the same quality as the mask fabric for what type it is, it just stands out compared to the rest of the plush. It’s not as soft or cuddly, but I wont say it’s scratchy or uncomfortable either. It’s just, the worst of the bunch. Thankfully, being only inside the cape you don’t really notice it either way.

The quality of the stitching is great, as I mentioned earlier it came with no holes or tears, only a few loose threads to be cut but it just seems sturdy otherwise. I was worried about the shoulders since its arms are kinda big but my worries have faded as it seems secure. You can see some threads through the seams on the feet/paw pads, but I’m not too worried about them breaking or coming loose. The neck flower is not sewn into the plush but around it, meaning you can freely spin it, which I think is slightly silly.

Do know though, that the plush will shed. Surprisingly though, not a lot at all. I’ve had plush much smaller than this (Comfy Friends, Cuddly Arcanine, and an Aurora brand plush) shed MUCH more than this. I’ve had some of the light green go floating around my room since getting it, and some pink from the flower. Overall though, I am not concerned at all.

The accuracy of the plush is phenomenal, not a missed detail anywhere. The face, the cape, the tail, everything is perfect. She even has toe beans/paw pads! I have to say, extra praise to the face specifically, the shaping is incredible with the little kitty snoot, something that the PC Meowscarada fails at imo, as it has a flat face. The eyes and mouth are more stylized, so while technically not accurate it gets a pass for trying (and succeeding) at giving it a different (but still good) look. One minor complaint though, is that the nose is green instead of pink. I bet hardly anyone else would notice but me, but it bugs me slightly nonetheless.

It’s possible I may be missing some information or that you may want more, so feel free to ask and I shall try my best to provide! Also, feel free to suggest silly photo ideas and I would love to do those too 👀!! Either way though, I would rate this plush 10/10 for size, quality, and price for those two categories. Definitely one of my most favorite plush purchases yet!

New to OLED, I’m surprised how colorful the colors look and this part of the game was pure eye candy, I have to say I’m not that impressed with movies but maybe it’s the streaming compression, but with games it’s mind blowing
