It looks so delicious, but if it’s soft and cuddly, we’ll take that too!
The end of the year means a variety of things to different people, but one part we all seem to agree on is that copious amounts of food should be devoured. Whether you’re eating tradition is packed with meat, vegetables or sweets galore, there’s always something to look forward to. In Japan, the excitement is lining up for Kentucky-fried KFC on December 25, but if greasy, crispy chicken doesn’t suite your palate, how about a lovingly stuffed turkey plushy?
While this stuffed bird might be unable to satisfy your taste buds, it certainly makes up for it in soft, warm cuddles. The wings of the bird may not enable it to fly, but you can spin them around for endless hours of fun.

The ends of the turkey legs are also tenderly wrapped in foil to give it that high-class shine.
▼ Because seriously, fine dining is defined by aluminum-wrapped food.
We can only imagine that this scrumptious yet soft turkey will be at the top of everyone’s holiday lists, but it just keeps getting better as there are THREE sizes available for purchase. This way, you can purchase the turkey that best fits your family or personal needs!
▼ Large size: 50 centimeters (19.7 inches), available for 10,584 yen (US$92.75).
▼ Medium size: 30 centimeters (11.8 inches), available for 4,104 yen.
▼ Small size: 20 centimeters (7.9 inches), available for 2,916 yen.
▼ Size comparison of medium and small. The legs of the small turkey cannot be removed.
If all of this isn’t enough to satisfy your holiday spirit, there is also a limited-edition turkey purse for 10,800 yen ($94.60). Nothing screams “fashion” more than a fluffy turkey to hold your wallet and other personal goods.
▼ White gloves sold separately
The purse and the other turkey plushies are available for pre-order and will be delivered before the New Year begins. Certainly a turkey goes great with a quiet afternoon of Netflix. Netflix and turkey cuddles…it’s taking off.
