She said it was only like 6 or 7 inches tall, I'd prefer a bigger one, but any Bloo plushie is cute and lovable, if you ask me. And a blanket now?? I must stop by soon. VERY soon!

Actually the Bloo plushie they have at Hot Topic (both Hot Topics by my house have them) are quite big, probably over 10 inches, in fact the one Cassini90125 link to looks just like the one at Hot Topic, but a bit darker in color.

Unless she saw a different plushie, when I went to get my blanket at Hot Topic today they had several plushies out, and they were all the same one, and all around 10+ inches tall, and pretty wide too.

Ok, ya know what? EBay is evil. It's too tempting. And PayPal makes it too easy. And there are too many amazing things available. I haven't done a Foster's search there in a while, just now did, found an identical Bloo plushie/pillow NWT that had just been posted with a BIN option of $28, so I jumped. A little bit of an early Christmas present to myself.

I also bid on a Smack'N'Yack Bloo, and will hopefully win it for cheaper than either CN or Amazon offer. Yay!

EBay is evil, I tell you, EVIL!!

Oh look, I'm a Foster's Legend now. Thanks for the congrats!

Edit: In response to Nem, ooh, yes, 10+ inches does sound better. I'm confused at to what my sis told me now, though. It's very possible she guessed the dimensions wrong. Or she saw something that she thought was a plushie but wasn't, and didn't look at it too closely. She was in somewhat a hurry. I'll take your word over hers.

Haha, congrats on being a legend =P

Also, this is a size comparison between my 14 inch wide laptop and my Bloo plushie that I got from Hot Topic.

Bloo plushie is $16.99, so cheaper then ebay =)

Sorry for the lowish quality, I forgot to turn the flash on XD

You think eBay's bad for Foster's stuff? Be glad you're not a Sailor Moon fan. Sailor Scout goodies are wiping me out. I'm loving it, but I'm switching to a cheaper brand of everything to pay for it.

Lynnie · 11-06-2007, 10:49 PM

I think I just got jibbed, lol! The one I just BINed is exactly the same as you have, Nem, the tags are in the same places and everything. And now that I look at them, the one you have has a bigger face than the one Cass has, so I don't think they're identical. Ah well, I don't mind so much, I hope the seller does something useful with my money. I still look forward to it. Does it have microbeads inside?

Yes, the one I have has microbeads =D Also, the one Cass linked to is the same version as the other one I have, it has a bit of a smaller face, and is like a tiny bit taller and not quite as wide, and also a different shade of blue, kind of a bit darker and stuff :]

I got that one off of ebay, I heard it came with a DVD or something or was for sale on Cartoon Network's site for a period of time, but I'm not sure D:

Here's a side by side comparison between the two =)

The one on the left is the one I bought from Hot Topic, and the one on the right is the one I got from ebay =)

Hope that helps, and so sorry to steer off topic XD

I wouldn't think we're really off topic as we're discussing the plush Bloo at HT.

They do look very similar, thanks so much for the pics!

I like the glossy sheen the HT Bloo has, he's pretty. Still a little miffed at spending almost twice as much, but whatever, I won't let it get me down. I'll finally have a Bloo plushie that I've been wanting for like for-EVER! Yay!

You could always be like me and buy one of each, though I am debating on selling one off eventually...but then again they're both sooo cute XD!

The version you bought is softer though, and more squishy XD

I didn't find the Wilt shirt, but I did find a ski cap that is basically Bloo (it reverses to Cheese), some gloves with Bloo on them...

And a Bloo plushie =D!!!! Maybe my dream of a soft Foster's blanket will come true =)!!

Pictures can be seen here!

The Bloo to the far left is the one from Hot Topic, and next to him also on the left is the Bloo hat...

And the gloves apparently are not visible, but they're all black with Bloo on them and he's wearing sunglasses =P

I want the ski cap so badly!
