Ha ha ha ha ha! (You've got to be kidding me)

You can tell that the merchandising people have latched onto The Golden Compass.

They made a Iorek Byrneson plushie.

Or, even sillier, that page has a picture of Mrs. Coulter's golden monkey as a stuffed animal. Like you'd really want that little bastard in your bed all night. I'd be afraid that it would kill me in my sleep.

At least Iorek is fairly cuddly for a giant armored ice bear who rips another bear's jaw off during a fight. But still... WTFFFFFFF?

Foaming, vicious animals are the need cuddly my dear.

[athenaltena.livejournal.com]

I know several people who could use one, actually. ;)

I really need to watch what I write. The hands have a mind of its own. And that could be lethal.


Several people eh? Yikes.

I have yet to read the books or see the movie so I may be getting myself into something saying this (since I don't know whose he is or what he's like)...but I really like the rabbit. Though as someone pointed out in the review section, the do look like they could use to be a bit more flexible and cuddly.

[athenaltena.livejournal.com]

The rabbit actually belongs to a cool Texan guy who flies an airship, so that one's not as much of a stretch. But I do get the sense that these are more collector's items than cuddling toys, so that might account for some of the stiffness.

I want an Iorek plushie now.


Will's eventual Daemon would make an excellent plush, though. Though I don't know if they can quite capture the silvery-blue-gray I imagine.

[athenaltena.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that'll be interesting. Although it seemed like Lyra'a daemon turned into that sort of animal a couple times in the movie, so I wonder if that's a nod to that or them practicing for it.

Awww, how cuuuuttteeee*beheaded* ....ow.

Not as cute as plush Ebola virus.

I actually got my Dad one of those germ plushies, and then he turned around and gave one to a biologist friend of his. When he gave it to her he said "I know this is something you never want someone to say, but I'm giving you chlamydia." :D

The golden monkey as a plushie! EEeeeeeek!

[aersi.livejournal.com]

I wants one.

But yeah, I totally agree about the Monkey. Eeeep! Who'd want to be alone with that?!?!
