They might be really cute or really ugly  or even really strange (depends on how you look at them) but one thing is very clear - they aren't soft toys. They are actually self-powered speakers with a power output of 0.2 watts x 2, which can be used with your computer, iPod or a CD player.

The speakers run for about 18 hours on a single pair of 2 AA batteries, but you can also power them with a USB connection too and apart from the "furgles", you also have a choice of monkeys or penguins. What we think? If you like keeping soft-toys on your desk, then these can serve 'dual-purpose' and they do look different, we must say.
