Aurora Plush 10" Mei, Aurora Babies Baby Panda

This panda seems to have the most accurate face of all the stuffed pandas available on this site. It doesn't have those lame white googly-eyes that stuffed animals often have. It's the perfect size and it's so unbelievably cute. I've had mine for a year now and it's still fluffy and in one piece. If this was 35 dollars I still would have bought it. (Durable, fun, and I rated it high in terms of educational value because it really looks like a young panda. I realize it's not as educational as a book or something, but still.)

The toy seems to be made out of really soft materials, and it is bigger than you would expect for something that is only ten dollars. Everything about the panda bear is above average, and for only this price, it's almost a steal from regular toy stores which charge more for less. I got this toy panda for a friend of mine for her birthday, and now she talks to this stud more than me!

I purchased this toy right before someone uploaded a user image of what it really looked it. I was worried that it was going to look, no offense, unpleasant. But when it arrived today, I was surprised that it didn't look quite that bad. In fact, it actually looked pretty cute (see my uploaded image.) The toy was smaller than I envisioned though. It wasn't 12" like the title would suggest, but the product details was pretty accurate in saying that it was slightly taller than 9". In regards to the shedding of the fur, I did notice that it seemed to leave small traces of fur behind when I put it on a fabric surface such as the top of a couch. So far, there's no excessive shedding, and the small amount that did was probably because it was new.

And finally some small additional details:
- the panda sits upright by default like in the photos
- it a bean bag bottom
- its nose has a leather feel to it
- its eyes are hard plastic
- the collar tag...Read more
