If you are looking to put some cute into your life, you need not seek much farther than the Usagi Yojimbo Plush Figure that Dark Horse is offering. The ode-to-adorable was designed with extensive input from creatr Stan Sakai, and here we offer — exclusively! — some of his designs for the toy. To make one of them your own, you need only part with $24.99 — cheep!
Thank you, Heidi. I have wanted to make an Usagi plush for quite awhile. Check out my Live Journal to see some of the prototypes, including the “mean Usagi”.

D’awwwwww…
This is the most adorable thing ever, ever, ever.
I want.
Will definitely be ordering at least two – one for me, one for my Usagi-readin’ brother. Usagi is a well-written saga & having a cuddly plush of him is awesome. If only there could be a Tomoe companion piece..!
I think I’ll order one… My TMNT Usagi (AKA “Grim and Gritty Usagi”) is lonely.
Will a komori ninja doll be next?
Must. Have. Will. Get.
Having attempted to steal various prototypes that showed up at the Dark Horse offices, I can tell you this little guy is more mind-bendingly cute than the pictures show. I’ve been waiting for this for years, and it came out so much better than I imagined it might. I want stuffed Hellboy next!
