Tux Dolls?
Embedded asks: "So has anyone (preferably GUND) brought out a TUX yet?" I'm sure someone has thought of this. Who's got them? I'd love to have a stuffed version like the icon in the upper right!

I realize I'm going to sound like a fanatic, but really, I didn't mean for any of this to happen...
First, I have an Opus stuffed doll from way back. Remove the tie and it looks a little like Tux (actually better).
Then my wife got (from her parents) some flannel pajamas with little penguins all over.
Then my wife bought little penguin socks for my one-year-old.
To paraphrase Robert Benchley: "I'm penguin poor, I have so many".

As somebody else pointed out, Linux Mall has them in tons of sizes.
:-)*
What I have is the little Corel Linux rubber Tux that came with Corel Linux Deluxe. It looks much better than the plush ones (the proportions seem all wrong, especially on the bill).
I squish him whilst thinking a lot. My friend's GF loves the little thing and asks him to buy her one every time she sees it. I found that funny since that was the original intention. She hasn't said, "he must be stuffed with herring," yet.
I wonder now if there's a way to get one of these rubber Tuxes without paying CAN$100 for Corel Linux Deluxe. Anybody know?
A Bubbles Powerpuff Girl Bean Bag
Oh, please, tell me where you found this!! Bubbles is the BEST! I've only seen them on ebay, for ridiculous prices. I figured the Warner Bros. store near me would have them, but no luck. -_-

Their website is The Penguin Place
/. recently.
and their toll free number is 1-(877)PENG-WIN
They claim to be "the only all-penguin outlets in the world." and have been in business for 15 years.
They have at least one brick-and-mortar store called 'Next Stop, South Pole' (which I have been to) located at in the HarborPlace shoping complex in Baltimore. Curiosly, when I went in there, the day manager hadn't heard of Linux.
Anyway, you can actually choose your stuffed penguin by species. I hope they add the Fairy Penguins from Australia that were mentioned on
Work for Change & GET PAID!
The Linux Mall has a solution.. There are an assortment of sizes, and a costume available.. Admittedly, they're not exact replicas of the Ewing Tux, but they are better than nothing. I do have a stuffed pengiun myself, but through other sources (a Hallmark store).
