    Continuing the seasonal theme, we have Christmas! It looks like the Sonic and Tails are a pair of Red & Green house-slippers. A Tails pops out of a stocking to the right, and Sonic is dressed like Santa Clause, complete with bag. Was the wreath in the background part of…

Here's a nice recent Amy from Japan. As you can see, she has a felt strip for her 'bangs', they didn't go too heavy on the eye-edge, and her expression is nice as well. The fabric looks very soft, almost fuzzy. But the interesting feature here is that her eyes are actually embroidered on. If you look closely, you can see they're stitched rather than plastic or decals.

Embroidering an eye onto a plush is more difficult than nearly any other method, but it has its advantages. They don't scuff, crack, or succumb to wear and tear. It also means the whole doll is soft and nice. Detail can be captured in the stitching, so sewing on the eyes isn't a shabby move. In all, this is a cute Amy Rose to collect. 

The Tails doll is likely from the same set as the Amy you see above. Notice that his eyes are embroidered, his bangs are a felt strip, and he is made out of a very similar fuzzy fabric.
With his nice detail (face edges, chest edges and glove/shoe cuffs) and cute center-smile this Tails is a really adorable collectible. This is about 7 inches high. It is all too rare in the USA to find such a cute Tails.

These Embroidered Eye Plushes are still being sold in 2009 in Japan's Sega Joypolis Tokyo. Sonic is available in 2 sizes, the others are all 1 size ($10.00). Info provided by: Jon Evans
