Plush Doll - 2007

sgFrom F.O.A.M. member extraordinaire Charles Howell, who designs products for the amusement product company The Toy Factory, comes this awesome plush Aquaman doll, that stands a whopping 15" high (he also sent a 10" version!).

Charles tells me his company "
supplies to amusement type vendors only; so the best way to get these plush in your area is to ask crane operators and amusement centers to start carrying it. Tell everyone to keep an eye out at crane machines and fun centers near you." Will do, Charles! And I gotta tell you--I've never found anything nearly this cool in an amusement park.

I've mentioned many times before on this blog how much I hate the Bedraggled Loser look, and can't fully understand why this is the official JLU version DC has decided to merchandise. But I have to say, this is such a fun, swell-looking item, that it doesn't bother me. Charles and The Toy Factory did a great job on this, and it was uber-cool of them to let me know it exists!

Isn't his hook on the wrong hand?

Otherwise, looks pretty cool!

The image has been flipped here. The actual piece has it on his left hand. Beleive me Warner Bros. would not let us make it wrong, even if we tried.

Robbo, always causing dissent of the fake heir to the throne, Hook Hand Aquaman.

Your subversive ways will get that guy kicked out the DCU yet!
