Spelen per spel

Play by Play manufactures character plush spanning horror, anime, and mainstream entertainment properties. The California-based company balances mass-market licenses (Disney, Looney Tunes) with niche horror collectibles, creating plush versions of characters that typically don't receive soft toy treatment.

Horror Plush That Shouldn't Be Cute But Are

Pennywise, The Nun, Annabelle, and possessed Regan become 22-27cm huggable plush despite their nightmarish source material. The designs walk a balance between recognizable character features and softened proportions that make them shelf-appropriate without fully removing the creepy factor. Pennywise keeps his sinister smile. The Nun retains her haunting habit. These aren't sanitized versions—they're fabric interpretations that capture character essence in squeezable form.

Display packaging shows the characters in windowed boxes that preserve mint condition for collectors who prefer sealed presentation. For those who actually want to display them loose, the plush maintain shape after unboxing without requiring restuffing or repositioning.

Squid Game Collectibles For Viral Moments

Play by Play jumped on Squid Game's breakout success with plush versions of the iconic tracksuit players and the series' creepy doll and teddy bear. The 25-28cm scale matches their standard format while the simplified character designs (masked players, basic doll features) translate naturally to plush medium. These pieces capitalize on cultural moments when horror and mainstream audiences overlap.

Anime Plush Beyond The Usual Suspects

Chainsaw Man plush arrived while the anime was still airing—Denji, Power, and the chainsaw devil himself in 27cm format. The rapid turnaround suggests Play by Play targets trending properties rather than waiting for established catalog depth. Assassination Classroom's Korosensei rounds out their anime offerings, showing range beyond action-focused shows.

Disney Classics With Sound Chips

Donald Duck, Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, and Pluto plush include embedded sound chips that play character catchphrases or signature sounds when squeezed. The 20cm scale targets younger fans while maintaining enough detail for adult collectors who appreciate classic Disney character design. The sound feature adds play value without inflating size or price to premium collectible territory.

Lord Of The Rings Fellowship In Plush Form

Frodo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Gollum, and Legolas receive 29cm plush treatment—a rarity for a franchise that typically focuses on high-end statues and replica props. The simplified fabric interpretation makes Middle-earth accessible to fans who want representation without investing in expensive collectibles. These work as gifts for casual fans or as approachable entry points for younger LOTR enthusiasts.

How To Train Your Dragon Plush Collection

Toothless appears in multiple versions—lying down at 30cm, standing poses in various scales. Storm Fly extends the lineup beyond the protagonist's dragon. The multiple Toothless options let fans choose poses and sizes that fit their display space and budget.
