Pocket Pork by Carol T Chung
Now there's no denying the ultimate power of beady little eyes, (just consider the mass appeal of pug dogs) but when those shining black orbs are supposed to belong to plush versions of yummy chinese steamed or fried dumplings, those little fellas just hit straight to the heart and to heart of my tummy. Packaged in an adorable take-out container, each box comes with three Pocket Porks, a button, and a sticker. Designed by Shawnimals out in Chicago, IL, each Pocket Pork is made by hand. With only 100 boxes available upon release, these little buggers have already sold out at My Plastic Heart. (tear!)

Giant Microbes is a line of esoteric plushies that explores the scientific rather than the usual adorable or fantasy based toys. What child wouldn't want to see, hold and play with the Ebola virus, a bed bug, a flu virus, or a Giardia microbe? Your lover eat too much garlic for dinner? Their feet a bit rank? Place the bad breath or athlete's foot...

Baby-Eating Puppet
Teach your child a harsh but ultimately necessary lesson in mortality with this adorably insatiable plush sea mammal. Because of its vague description, we're not exactly sure what's up with the "Eating Whale Puppet," except that it's extremely cute and seemingly capable of devouring your young. As seen on Excitement Machine, the toy reportedly talks and includes a yummy squid dinner which it-- get...

Domsai Desk Pets
by Laura Neilson Matteo Cibic's desk tamagotchi, an anthropomorphic planter, is an altogether different creation from his contribution to the "Love Design" exhibition at last month's Design Week in Milan. Where his bedside lamp stylishly doubled as a sex toy, the Domsai, which he showed at the exhibition space Monotono, provides a decidedly more G-rated dose of pleasure. Cibic describes his space-agey little tabletop...
