In Case You Ever Wanted A Life-Size Vaporeon Plush

Etsy continues to be a magical treasure trove of video game-related goodies. Take a look at this life-size Pokemon plush.

Etsy shop owner Growly Lobita made the giant Vaporeon using a combination of fleece, vinyl, embroidery, hand-painting, and other methods. Check out the plush's listing to see its size compared to the size of an average person.

Costing a hefty $550 including shipping, a life-size Vaporeon isn't for everyone. Then again, can you really put a price on having your very own rideable, surfing Pokemon? Think of the money you'd save on your daily commute!

A life-size Snorlax would be nice.

That's adorable but not $550 adorable. Maybe I can try and make my own Glaceon instead.

I approve.

Yea more pokey stuff for people to waste money on. Buying one for my girl
by The Destroyer Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 12:47 PM

I'd buy it...if it was like, $400 less and was Umbreon. Umbreon is the best.
by cerpintaxman Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 12:47 PM

That's neat and all, but $550 including shipping seems steep to me.
by ZSloth11 Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 12:48 PM

I'd buy it for that much if it were reeeeaaaal *childlike wonder*

I'll be waiting for a Tyranitar.

Can somebody answer the ultimate question, dafuq is Vaporeon ?
by NinjaQ9000 Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:10 PM

I want a Espeon and umbreon one. (I wish Pokemon were real)
by linkin park forever Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:11 PM

I want
by Alex Beyer Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:31 PM

It's not Eevee or Umbreon, so it is automatically lame.*

*I'm joking, have to say that since my cynical sense of humor tends to fall flat on a text base medium.

That is chinese mass produced quality (maybe with slightly better stitching that won't fall apart within a year).
by Solo Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:42 PM

How about a Glaceon? Or just an Eevee?
by ss4frosty Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:44 PM

greatest.plush.ever
by Max Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:45 PM

Vaporeon was always my favorite Eevee evolution
by Marz Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:46 PM

I would like to point out that it is actually $450 not $550. It is still more than I would pay for a plush, just pointing that out.
by John Wrek Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:47 PM

Personally I'd rather have a Groudon plush, but he's a little rough around the edges... ;-)
by BRISKe Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:47 PM

no way in hell that things is worth anything above $200
by dragonswkap Thursday, August 09, 2012 at 01:53 PM

If I could get a giant plushie that size but of a badger... I would be one happy badger.
