Look who arrived today!

[Tw1]

Soft kerbal, plush kerbal, little thing of...rocket science?

I'd almost forgot about it.

He's pretty cool.

Awesome points:

Eyes are different sized, just like real kerbals.

Easy to reproduce awkward landing/bouncing poses. You know what I mean.

Nitpicks:

Won't sit down.

Head isn't conical. Maybe from lithobraking?

Fly (pants zipper) looks slighly awkward, but meh.

Also, he's looking at me, like "let's play some KSP!" No. Sorry. Mid sem break is coming soon. Patience.

So, anyone else's arrived? Or am I late to the bandwagon? What did you guys think?

It's hard to make right angles (like for the ends of a cylinder) in a plush, especially a small one. The batting is stuffed inside, and essentially "pressurizes" the figure (it's obvious that's happening at least on his chin; can't tell if his crown is the same or they just didn't try).

You could make a "proper" (or at least better) cylinder head if it were much bigger or you used a stiff material like plastic. But the latter would be 1) more expensive, 2) more prone to breakage, and 3) would defeat the purpose of being a plush.

The random screw laying there at the bottom of the picture... it's so Kerbal. Perfect.

Mine came a couple of weeks ago. Total rubbish. Poor quality. A weird zipper/brazilian. Not recommended.

[lajoswinkler]

Ugh, that bottom stitch is so unfortunate. xD

[Xyphos]

Oh look, he even comes with a few screws loose. LOL!

How big it is? Can it be hung on the rear mirror in a car? "Jeb is my co-driver" - would sound awesome

He still looks happy, even though he's being suffocated in a plastic bag. Clearly he has the Right Stuff.

[Tw1]

Useful when you need to take a snack break, but there's rovering to do.

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

Awesome!

But the Zipper in the crotch makes the plushy look awkward

[Bill Phil]
