That image sure was a choice.

"10 1/4 Inches" - they knew what they were doing

Yes they also describe its girth

My fiancé and I ordered one just to leave out in our living room for when people come over.

God damn, I might do this too. That's hilarious.

Also more hilarious if anyone ever visits. The joys of being a recluse. Guess I can give my mother a heart attack on her next visit. Lmfao.

What a shit website. Instant popup requiring you to consent to ads or buy a subscription, and the consent options don't allow removal of consent for ads and tracking. This is a GDPR violation.

I know what you men. I know exactly what you men.

Firefox + NoScript + U-block Origin and you'll never experience anything like that again but you will break some sites; however, those sites deserve to be broken.

incognito + cookies if you're that concerned about?

Lmao, thank you for the nsfw tag 🙏

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Respectfully, how on earth did this design get cleared? 😭

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

I knew this was going to be good as soon as I saw the NSFW label.

The official Pokémon Center shop has launched its latest plush toy - and it's for Wiglett, the long, pink-tipped worm-like creature that stands erect at 10-and-a-quarter inches.

Wiglett debuted in last year's Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and quickly became something of a f avourite.

Wigglet's design features a bulbous base, long pale shaft and then redder tip - that's its nose.

If you'd like one for your room, its measurements are 26cm in height and 12cm in girth

Thanks, Tom.

The marketing states that the plush is "ready to stand tall" and has a bendable body... at least the fabric is waterproof right?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

You can waterproof anything with a thin latex film...

It's a plushy guys! No need to worry.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Still cute tho

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why would anyone choose to purchase this, despite hundreds, if not thousands, of other pokemon plushes, including Diglett?
