Melissa & Doug Giant Lion - Lifelike Stuffed Animal (over 1.8m long) Big Lion Stuffed Animal Plush Toy

The package came within a few days in a big box. The penguin itself was in a nice plastic covering. The material is quite soft and feels high quality, the orange parts of its soft belly were yellow and orange and would change colours slightly depending on how they were moved, which looks extra cool! It is very tall but also a little wide but realistic to the real thing. It also has movable arms, which is a nice addition too. I did buy this as a gift for my friend who loves penguins and i'm sure he will love it I would recommend this to anyone who likes penguins or soft and large plush toys.

So happy with this

Wow! It's big, it's soft, it's cute; it's perfect! My 4 year old daughter has been going on about having a giant turtle for xmas and I cannot wait for her to open this particular present on xmas day. I know she's going to be over the moon! This turtle is exactly like on the picture on Amazon; the underneath of the shell is of a beautiful light creamy colour; it really looks like a real giant turtle. I'm very glad I purchased it, especially at such a good price, and I would highly recommend it to any turtles fans who like big teddies!

I've had this snake in my basket for years! I couldn't quite bring myself to spend that much on a toy, however I finally bought it and it's INCREDIBLE! My snake obsessed son and his two brothers have played with it so much and they fight over who gets to have it in their bed EVERY night! It's MASSIVE!! Really good quality and I never thought I'd say it.. good value! Don't hesitate like me.. buy it!

Please note that this review is from the perspective of an 18 year old who bought this to sleep at night - I point out a few aesthetic errors in this review, but if you're planning to buy this for your young son/daughter, there's even more reason to buy it as they really won't notice these. What attracted me to this model was the side and the price of the item - similar plushies can go for more than double the price (paid 30 quid), and this model really was great value for money. The best aspect of the plush is that it's great to hug and snuggle - there's just enough stuffing in the top half of the tiger to make it wonderful to hug, and in my opinion, this is the best thing about the tiger. Now onto some drawbacks. Comparative to the positives, there will be a lot of them simply because I'm pointing out all of the small aesthetic errors in this model and compared to the positives, they are small: 1. The bottom half of the tiger is smaller (and less stuffed) than the top half. This is one of the easier things that could've been prevented. 2. The head is plastic - not a bad thing in my eyes but be careful if you were expecting a full stuffed head. 3. Some of the sticking is visible and dodgy here and there. None that I've seen so far to be easy to break, but if you're giving this to a reckless son/daughter, just be careful. 4. The tail is limp and kind of represents a long sock. Overall, the sheer value for money for this product beats the little errors here and there. I'm not sure about others but I would pay an extra tenner or so to see these errors ironed out and a little more time spent in the stiching.

Even though this lion is too big for the dog to take it through doorways (I got it for him because he lost his last lion!) I had to give five stars because it is made so beautifully. Its facial expression is perfect, he looks so content without in any way resembling a cartoon. Very realistic in fact. I think the extra long front paw is very clever and makes him look more relaxed than if both paws were the same length. It's quite comical watching the dog pushing and shoving the lion all the way out to the garden because it's bigger than him. I would recommend it to anyone except perhaps those living in quite a small space.

Lovely and soft, well made and looks great.

This is a seriously cute, LARGE penguin!!!! My severely disabled daughter really loves penguins. For Christmas, we have arranged an adoption package for King penguins in The Falklands. However, the package does not include a soft toy. We wanted to find one, which looks as realistic as possible. As my daughter has no vision, this penguin will tick a number of boxes. He/she is perfect!!! The quality is excellent, with a smooth, silky-feel fabric. The colours & markings are very realistic and he/she definitely has a real cuddle factor (I have already tested that out!!!!) Cute, cuddly and ready to be loved - absolutely PERFECT!!
