It takes a long time to grow a wooden wheel right on the rim, but it is worth it.

Awww, cute donkey.

Ooh, that looks like a reasonable size plush - how big actually is it? I'd happily give a home to some large plush ponies, but I never seem to encounter them, and even searching on Amazon's been relatively fruitless, though admittedly, I haven't checked in a while.

Not that I'm expecting the official ones to be quite as astonishingly good as some of the hand-made fan creations.. wow. (Still, just as there are/were some large Disney plush at the parks, for a commensurate cost, perhaps Hasbro ought to think of a line of plush made with a more adult budget in mind)
