After making a bunch of really expensive blind boxed item,s Kid Robot gets back on the Sonic Scene with a new type of plush, the "Phunny". Spelled with a 'ph' to capitalize on being different, these are stylized dolls.
They're half 'chibi' type, half 'simplified'...but all quality? How is it that somehow only 'stylized' dolls seem to be able to consistently score SO MANY proper details, while the supposedly 'accurate' dolls do not?? The standing up ears, the excellent ear-borders, properly shaped and VERY proportionate spikes & lower faces...good eye shape, tidy noses, heck even the arms are decent!
Cheerful Tails has his mouth open, and the interior detail is embroidered. The hands/gloves are simplified, as are the pupil-less eyes & tails. (White detail on the top only) Sonic's body/back is also simplified with the spiked there and tail only being embroidered lines. Still, the over-all impression is of quite a solid doll for both, with plenty of embroidery and great attention to detail. Plus, at generally 14.95 per doll, they're actually pretty darn reasonably priced.
This is a fall 2019 item.
