Two of Sega’s most beloved characters — Sonic the Hedgehog and Doctor Eggman — just got a lot more huggable, and a bit more affordable. Amazon has slashed prices on their quirky rubber duck plushies to the lowest yet, triggering a wave of interest from fans and collectors alike.
The Sonic plush is now just $18.60, down from $25. Doctor Eggman’s version is slightly more expensive at $21.10, but still a record low. Both are officially licensed by Sega and made by Tubbz, the offbeat brand known for its pop-culture ducks.
A Sonic Deal Worth Grabbing Fast
Sonic’s 9-inch rubber duck plush isn’t your typical Sonic merchandise. He’s been squished into duck form — complete with a tuft of blue “feathers” and red duck-shoes — and the result is honestly pretty adorable.
This particular plush only hit the market late last year, and it didn’t stick around for long. After quickly selling out, it finally resurfaced this April. That $18.60 price tag? It’s the cheapest it’s ever been.
Soft enough for bedtime snuggles, it’s also machine-washable. But it’s not just for kids. Plenty of adult collectors have taken to displaying it upright, thanks to its weighted bottom that keeps it stable on shelves or desks.
For something that looks like a fever dream you had in 1994, it’s winning over hearts in 2025.
Eggman Joins the Party — Slightly Pricier, Way Goofier
Doctor Eggman might not be the most obvious pick for a plush, let alone a duck plush. And yet, here we are.
This ducked-up version of Sonic’s archnemesis wears his signature red coat, oversized glasses, and of course — the mustache. It’s absurd. It’s delightful.
It’s also cheaper than ever. At $21.10 (down from its $25 list price), this plush has never been more accessible. Amazon marked it as a limited-time deal, which likely means it’s selling fast.

Eggman plush had been out of stock since December and only recently came back in March.
-
Weighted base allows upright display just like Sonic.
-
Machine washable and officially licensed by Sega.

Perfect for ironic gifts or actual fans of the franchise.
If Sonic’s the straight man, Eggman is definitely the punchline.
Tubbz Turns Rubber Ducks into Pop Icons
You’ve probably seen those wild vinyl duck figures online — Gandalf with a staff, Joker with green hair, Lara Croft wielding dual pistols. That’s Tubbz.
The company has turned quirky into an empire, reimagining pop culture legends as duck-shaped caricatures. While their vinyl duck lineup is massive, their plush duckies are starting to gain real momentum too.
And now, a table of some of the most talked-about plush releases:
Character | Franchise | Price | Status |
---|---|---|---|
Sonic the Hedgehog | Sonic | $18.60 | In stock |
Doctor Eggman | Sonic | $21.10 | In stock |
Chucky | Child’s Play | $15 | In stock |
Pennywise | It | $22.36 | In stock |
Vault Boy | Fallout | $25 | Back in stock |
Batman | The Dark Knight | $25 | Almost gone |
Frodo / Gandalf | Lord of the Rings | $25 | In stock |
Turtleduck | Avatar: The Last Airbender | $21.10 | In stock |
The plush line is smaller than the vinyls, but it’s getting there — fast.
Not Just for Gamers or Kids Anymore
You might think these are just toys. You’d be wrong.
Sure, they’re soft and goofy, but they’ve also become legit collectibles. Tubbz plushies — particularly the more niche characters — regularly go out of stock within weeks of launch. Some, like the Marty McFly duck, are already gone.
The fandom ranges wildly. Adults are buying them for shelves and desks. Teenagers are grabbing them for irony. Parents are picking them up as bedtime companions for their kids.
And they’re all fighting over the last few in stock.
A quick scroll through social media confirms the growing obsession. One Reddit user called the Eggman duck “a cursed masterpiece.” Another dubbed Sonic’s duck form “too pure for this world.”
Strange? Absolutely. But people love strange right now.
What’s Next? More Ducks, More Chaos
The Tubbz line isn’t slowing down. If anything, it’s growing faster than ever. Upcoming plush drops include Doc Brown from Back to the Future (set for July 22) and more Jurassic Park dinos.
Batman’s duck plush is also almost gone, likely driven by The Dark Knight nostalgia wave. His villainous counterpart, Joker, is holding strong — but maybe not for long.
From Destiny’s Cayde-6 to Resident Evil’s Claire Redfield, the lineup just keeps getting weirder, and fans are absolutely eating it up.
The plushes might not float like their vinyl cousins, but they’re definitely flying off shelves.
