NCS Product Synopsis

Must be a baby.
   The special feature in the Tokotoko plushes is their mobility. As in their little stubby hooves paddle backwards and forwards so they'll walk when activated and placed on top of a flat surface. Each pig measures 15cm (5.90") in length and is made of soft plushy material. Preorders are welcome to ship in February 2010 at US$20.90 from NCS.
