I must warn you that my Mimzy did not send me any subliminal messages…but my neighbor’s dog started talking to me. While the Collector Mimzy is a better replica of the actual plush from the film, the Plush Mimzy is perfect for kids who want a soft, cuddly Mimzy of their own. But this film character is family friendly, and rather cuddly. And when they are, it’s usually because they’re possessed and on a murderous rampage. So, what do we think about Mimzy? Well, it’s not often that a plush toy is one of the main characters of a film. Well, Tonner now has a bunch of the plush Mimzy’s available. Collectors, kids and grandmas all wanted to know where they could pick one up. Our initial post about Tonner’s release of The Last Mimzy plush ended up getting some of the most comments on our lil’ site. The plush also has wire inserts in the ears, so they are poseable. This allows the pieces to turn 360 degrees, but also means kids might rip off an arm if they’re too rough. Little plastic joints inside of Mimzy attach all of the body parts together. However, you’ll have to make sure that you’re aware that this plush is actually constructed in six different pieces (head, body, arms and legs). So it is perfect for collectors as well as youngsters. While there is a Collector Mimzy made of a less “cuddly” material, the Plush Mimzy is made of soft chenille. The Last Mimzy Plush stands approximately 14” tall (from the tip of the ears to the feet). The piece is packaged with tissue paper and secured with a ribbon. The Plush Mimzy is packaged within a black rectangular box that has the logo of the film on the front. But Tonner now has the Plush Mimzy back in stock and ready to rocket into your living room. Mimzy was one of the hot toys for this past Christmas, albeit tough to find.
Very fittingly, Tonner Doll Company acquired the license to produce authorized replicas of the plush bunny.
Included below for your viewing pleasure is the first movie review by The Conservative Mostly Bald Guy. Little Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) finds a cute bunny doll in the box, who talks to her in electronic code. I plan to do video reviews of movies from this point on.
Here’s part of The Last Mimzy synopsis from : Two kids find a bizarre box on the beach and are soon exhibiting signs of off-the-chart genius in this gently mind-blowing fantasy film.
