Who knows about beanie babies?

[Rubycon]

Did they ever make one of these?

 

[Crono]

I can't see that at work, but by the filename I'm guessing not...

 

[Rubycon]

Should work now.

 

[Nik]

CRONO!

ionno.

 

[KeithTalent]

I have no idea who that is aside from him being a forum member. :hmm:

He's crazy cute! I'd have a few around for sure.

And make them fight to the death! That would be cool.

Only if it involves killing a helicopter.

Chrono? Unfortunately not a beany baby. Although, I might have seen some mediocre cloth ones with cotton/poly filling at anime conventions like Otakon in the past. If you like the character design, I believe Akira Toriyama was the artist and his style is quite distinct.

A friend of mine has one of those 3D printer things but I want something soft and cuddly. They have lots of CNC stuff and he owes me a big favor so perhaps I shall give him a ring.

Ooh, if he does make a couple, can I get one? I'd gladly pay.

Unfortuantely, there are no official plush/beanie Chrono Trigger characters (I've checked). There are some unofficial stuff, but it's all homemade.

Yep, Toriyama's characters are pretty unique. You can usually spot one of his character designs right away; a lot of smilar faces are used in the anime and games he worked on.

If I get something I'll be sure you get one! After all it was your avatar that started it all!

Any examples of Toriyama's work online?

I'm sure they have Winry dolls. Heck I would not be surprised if someone had one right now using it as a pin cushion! :twisted:

 

[Pepsei]

~$10 i think

dragonball is one of his more famous work.....

...but the character's name is Crono.

There's no doubt, hands down that there is one in Japan. I am 99.9% sure on this.

yeah, i started to look for some... then i realized that my japanese skill is almost non existent. i did find some pvc figures..... one would think that a doll is available because it's actually used as a plot device in the actual game.

Getting closer..

Yeah, I am sure there is one somewhere.. I think CT was released back before dolls were a major thing so it's not as big on the net as it probably should be.

Bleh, gonna have to toss it in on this one. Not finding much results on beanies (ぬいぐるみ's). Same with dolls (人&#24418.

The farthest I got on my searches is a customized Robo build on a blog. (part 2)

Don't let that deter you though, I think it just really means there's no official beanie product out there. There's bound to be a person or two (Square fans) that have one in their collection made by another fan.

 

[Rubycon]

With all the other dumb crap TY has one would think they would do this. Or is this due to trademarks?

I'm guessing that it's a marketing thing. I don't think that the ladies who haunt Hallmark stores and cat shelters are so much into characters from Japanese console games.

 

[Colt45]

^^bingo.

Honestly I'm not either...

Look at most of the "crap" popular music. Ask people why they like it and they cannot really tell you a particular reason. They listen to the radio and hear it playing all the time and bingo! They want to hear it whenever so they buy it. Thus DJs ultimate control how popular a song gets...

Point is TY makes an animal and people say "Aw that is so cute!"

If they made a Crono beanie it would be popular. I mean come on how could NOT want him?
