Tux Dolls? 21
Embedded asks: "So has anyone (preferably GUND) brought out a TUX yet?" I'm sure someone has thought of this. Who's got them? I'd love to have a stuffed version like the icon in the upper right!

I found that the smaller ones are rather distorted but the 10" is pretty well done.

They even sell their stuffed chameleon logo...
Check the german site (.de) as the US one doesn't seem to sell stuffed material...

I want to get a stuffed Tux as well as a BSDemon.
And yes, I am a guy. BTW, you should see a couple of my friend's rooms, they are filled with stuffed animals. It's really just a matter of being a big softie. Being a big softie is not mutually exclusive with being a geek. :-)

Someone will do it, though. If the name "Linux" can send a stock up 900% or whatever, it might be able to sell a few stuffed penguins.

got my 6" Tux from, but it looks cool sitting on top of my speakers. As if that (and the "powered by linux" stickers on my case) doesn't make a statement when I have friends over at my house, I serve drinks with penguin ice cubes. I bought the penguin tray from (I think) Target and it always seems to bring up the "oh, how cute" statements.

"off-brand" Tux (Score:2)
First, I have an Opus stuffed doll from way back. Remove the tie and it looks a little like Tux (actually better).
Then my wife got (from her parents) some flannel pajamas with little penguins all over.
Then my wife bought little penguin socks for my one-year-old.
To paraphrase Robert Benchley: "I'm penguin poor, I have so many".

What I have is the little Corel Linux rubber Tux that came with Corel Linux Deluxe. It looks much better than the plush ones (the proportions seem all wrong, especially on the bill).
I squish him whilst thinking a lot. My friend's GF loves the little thing and asks him to buy her one every time she sees it. I found that funny since that was the original intention. She hasn't said, "he must be stuffed with herring," yet.
I wonder now if there's a way to get one of these rubber Tuxes without paying CAN$100 for Corel Linux Deluxe. Anybody know?

Oh, please, tell me where you found this!! Bubbles is the BEST! I've only seen them on ebay, for ridiculous prices. I figured the Warner Bros. store near me would have them, but no luck. -_-

Try the Next Stop, South Pole store (Score:2)
and their toll free number is 1-(877)PENG-WIN
They claim to be "the only all-penguin outlets in the world." and have been in business for 15 years.
They have at least one brick-and-mortar store called 'Next Stop, South Pole' (which I have been to) located at in the HarborPlace shoping complex in Baltimore. Curiosly, when I went in there, the day manager hadn't heard of Linux.
Anyway, you can actually choose your stuffed penguin by species. I hope they add the Fairy Penguins from Australia that were mentioned on
