Puffkin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Puffkins were a series of stuffed animals sold by Swibco, Inc.. They were spherical stuffed animals filled with plastic pellets, not unlike Beanie Babies. Puffkins were around six inches in diameter. Swibco also released a set of Puffkins Keyrings that had the same designs as the normal line, but were around four inches in diameter. There was also a series of Puffkin refrigerator magnets. Swibco no longer distributes Puffkins, with the entire toy series "retired." In 2007, Swibco will make Puffkins 2.

Puffkins were different animals and they were similar to Beanie Babies but they were released by Swibco, Inc. and they were spherical. They had hang tangs like Beanie Babies and their hang tang included its name, its birthday and its poem. Holiday Puffkins were sold around the holidays. They are found in flea markets, at antique stores, and at a garage sale. They are really rare right now than in the late 90s and 2000s. They are hard to find since there are new brands of stuffed animals such as Webkinz and Shining Stars.
