Cuddly IKEA Stuffed Animals

Looks like IKEA is jumping on the trend of “ugly dolls”, plushir viruses, squid hats, and other such things that are hot right now.

That’s not in the store anymore, but it’s an ugly/cute beaver from IKEA.

I think it’s cute, but some of my friends think it’s the scariest thing they’ve ever seen.

i love it. my best friend has one, and everyone who sees it has something to say about it. but i think it’s the cutest little thing.
we thought it was a roly poly.

I asked the Ikea sales person what it was. They were undecided on the creature but knew it was a pajama holder for little kids. So you can take your squishy bug (a bed bug we all agreed) with you and it will hold your PJs. I’ve seen similar other animals that unzip to hold blankets or PJs so this made sense to me. Why anyone would want a critter that bites you in your sleep we couldn’t decide.

It looks like Boo’s costume from Monsters, Inc.

It might be a tick. Although it probably is a dust mite.

With all these Star Wars posts I’m surprised someone has yet ot mention the sand people.

I always thought it was a trilobite, but I think that’s just because I was haunted with those disgusting things in my old house’s basement..

It’s a giant isopod – ah cute !

I was never big on dolls or stuffed animals. However, any unusual stuffed animal I see, I buy. Those I am big on. I am going to have to take a field trip to every Ikea in the area.

I bought one of these last week for my cousins kid. Personally it reminds me of a roly poly.

I think it’s effing awesome.

AND, I think it’s a bed bug.

mike that photo is awesome. deserves its own post

Aww, i love these. I bought my baby sister the yellow crab. Awesome.

It is a roly poly (I’m a zoologist, so dare not question my 1/2 second off the cuff answer…). My girlfriend bought me one last year, and when we visited IKEA last weekend, there was a whole bin of them on sale. I guess not everyone likes the cute little things. Those butt-ugly beavers were in an adjacent bin, on major markdown as well. Well-deserved; they are really ugly.

My dad actually bought me one of these things, and I think it’s kind of adorable! It has a zippered mouth, and you can keep a set of pajamas n it for when you go to a friend’s house, adn then it doubles as a small pillow! I think it’s neat.

I have one, it’s called “Klappar Skalbagge” and it’s a woodlouse plushie. People kept stopping to marvel at how ugly it was so I had to buy it!!

The tag on mine says “beetle”. I’d say it’s closer to a roly poly than anything and that fits the general beetle category.

I have 7 of them, i love them, just so cute and cuddly. I agree about the beavers though, damn, they’re scary looking!!!

I have one, it’s so cute! I think it’s a roly poly, but I don’t know. I saw a couple in the window of a cloting store, and the clothes were all grey and green, the same colors! It was so funny!

I’m sorry to hear that we are not to be found in Ikea at the moment. I’m sure we will make a welcome return at some point. I was personally taken home by a lovely family who have looked after me very well. They even helped me to set up my own facebook page so I can stay in touch with all my friends.
