David M. ★★★★★

The parachute fabric is so nostalgic and has that perfect crinkly sound when you squeeze him. My Badtz-maru arrived with his signature smirk intact and the bright colors are even better in person.

Andrew Z. ★★★★★

The 90s throwback fabric is exactly what I remembered—it's got that satisfying crinkly sound when you squeeze it. The bold purple and green colors really pop against my other plushies.

Lily K. ★★★★★

I was really hoping the parachute fabric would be as smooth as I remembered, and it totally is—the bold purple pops against the black are even better in person. He's the perfect size to sit on my desk without taking over, and that classic 90s vibe makes me smile every time I walk by.

Owen G. ★★★★★

This little guy’s swishy pants and bright colors instantly remind me of the 90s—soft but not too flimsy, perfect for display. The fabric has a retro feel that’s spot-on for the series.

I can't believe they brought back the Balloon Kids line—the retro swishy fabric is such a fun throwback, and the bold colors really pop in person. My Badtz-maru arrived looking exactly like the photos, with perfect stitching and a nice, squishable feel. It's the perfect little desk buddy to brighten up my work from home setup.

The retro balloon print and bright purple color bring such a fun 90s vibe, and the swishy fabric adds a nice crunchy texture that my kid loves squeezing. Perfect little companion for the bag.

Julian N. ★★★★☆

The parachute fabric is exactly like the ones I remember from the 90s, and Badtz-Maru's grumpy face cracks me up every time. My only tiny complaint is the 9" size is a little smaller than I expected for the price.
