Who:Pip and Posy Talking Plush by Bandai
What:Talking Pip Plush / Talking Posy Plush

These adorable, plush characters inspired by the much loved TV series Pip and Posy, are 35cm tall and are made from the softest, high quality velboa, making them extremely huggable. Our judges were impressed by the level of detail and how perfectly this matched the characters in the show, down to their outfits and the super cute miniature soft toy that each plush carries. There are 10 different sounds and a clip of the theme song which are activated when you press on their tummies, a feature that was thoroughly tested!
“Soft, well made and charming plush characters in lovely, vivid colours. How can you not fall in love with them?
“Loveable characters, sweet in design.”
I’m not usually a fan of TV character cuddlies but these are really gorgeous!
