A little backstory to start off. When me and my brother were little, we all had plushies, naturally, me having my favorite stuffed bear i had since i was born and my brother having his pumpkin bat plushie. Fast forward 5 or so years, both of them are gone. Mine because my aunt threw it out thinking it was trash when i was 14, my brothers, were not sure, we think it got lost in storage. I just recently moved out of my house, and halloween is coming up(and i saw something similar on the mabi wiki) so i suddenly remembered about it and thought it would be a nice thing to give him for a christmas present. I'm assuming he remembers it, but if i can find it online it would be a great gift for him. I am planning to call my mom and ask her if she thinks its a good idea or if she knows where it is, but im fairly sure its lost for good somewhere at the bottom of our storage.
Here is the information I have on it.
It is a round, orange pumpkin with black bat wings.
It came from one of the plushie claw machines, as my mom loves to play those and was fairly good so she won it for him.
It was fairly large, at least the size of a soccer ball, I think(unless the passage of time has thrown my size knowledge out of balance, which it shouldn't have that much)
While i would love to find my old plush, I want to get my brother his first.
And somehow this triggered the first time Ive been homesick since i moved out 4 months ago or so.

I guess
it's not that, and I guess it's a satire on the game-finding thread, or perhaps you two are sconspiring to make fun of the helpfulness of people, but anyway.

Huh? not that one unfortunately. That was one of the first ones that came up on my searches. its like that, but more plushie-like? Much more round if that makes any sense.
No satire here, just your average, 19 year old man looking for plushies for a high schoolers christmas presents. Is that so out of the ordinary that i have to be joking?
My second idea for a gift for him would be river city ransom for the nes.... if our nes was not with me that is. I know for a fact he wants that because he showed it to me on wii-ware and asked if i remembered it. But anyway, the pumpkinbat was his favorite plush up until he lost it, so i want to get it for him, if only for nostalgia.

No, it just fit because of the time it was posted.
Hmm. I guess it's so specific you'll have to find out which compaines make plushies for those machines and call all of them and ask if they had a plushie in their sortiment back when you got it. Would take an awful lot of time though, most likely. And they could be bankrupt too, after all. :/

With it being that long ago, they probably aren't made anymore. And considering it was most likely something for only Halloween, they may have made very few.

Aww, i was hoping that wouldnt be the case, but probably. I will probably have to contact my mom and see if she remembers anything about when she got it. It was an interesting bat pumpkin.
