Nintendo Plush 16-inch Bowser

My son grabbed this Bowser the second he saw the box and hasn't put it down since — the spikes on his shell are soft enough for a toddler to safely carry around. It's a solid 16 inches of cuddly villain that holds up well to being dragged by one arm.

The stitching around the shell seams is really clean and holds up well to my kids tossing him around. Bowser's spiked shell is soft enough to hug but firm enough to keep its shape. He's the perfect size for cuddling during movie night.

He's surprisingly hefty for a plush—definitely feels like quality stuffing, and the spikes on his shell are stiff enough to hold their shape. My kid carries him everywhere and he still looks great after a few weeks of play.
