A stuffed representation of the PS2? Of the actual device? You better believe it.
Indeed, Sony’s groundbreaking platform will shortly be available for purchase in plush format. To clarify, this really is merely a cushion — it’s not concealing a disc drive or anything like that.
The plush is quite sizable at 16.5 inches tall, and it’s going to be priced at $30. As of this writing, it’s solely open for pre-order through US retailer BigBadToyStore, with a vague ‘December 2025’ launch timeframe mentioned.
It should be acknowledged that this plush is being crafted by Banpresto — Bandai Namco’s toy-making division. Therefore, we presume that it’s an official PlayStation merchandise — but there’s no indication of the item on any of Sony’s online shops. We’ll refresh this article if we discover more details.
Honestly, we believe there’s significant revenue to be earned here. We’re not certain every console design would translate well into a plush, but there’s an oddly soothing kind of nostalgia to the entire concept. Moreover, the original PS2 has such a distinctive appearance.
