Square Enix launched a series of new plush toys inspired by the Moogles and Chocobos from Final Fantasy. Both characters come in small, medium, and large sizing and also come with a string attached so it can be used as a keychain or hanging decoration. The plushes are measured at about 3 inches tall for small, 9 inches for medium, and 14 inches for tall.
Moogles are a recurring race in the Final Fantasy series, serving as playable characters or cameos. Chocobos are similar, but are used as mounts for carriages and pulling carts in the game. Both species are considered to be Final Fantasy's mascots, along with Cactuars.
