Neopets Team 2006 Christmas Gift Box & Plush

As far as I know, these were the first Neopets plushies ever made. They are from THE ANCIENT TIMES.

This box was given out to the Neopets Team as the 2006 staff Christmas gift. The wintery box was designed with custom art to match the four original plush from 2001 found inside: Aisha, Scorchio, Cybunny, and Chia in the four basic Neopets colours. (CHIA! These were made before the whole Chia Pet legal debacle.)

Each plush comes in a “velvet” (velour?) bag. It’s a bit hard to tell in the photos, but the bags are coloured to match. Aisha is a deep blue, Scorchio is dark maroon, Cybunny is a deep emerald green, and Chia is…… a dark royal purple for some reason. I guess a dark mustard yellow would have been weird.

The box is about 10″ w x 10″ l x 8.25″ h (25.4 x 25.4 x 20.6 cm). Each plush is about 7″ (17.8 cm) tall.

Each piece of this set is fairly rare because of their age and exclusivity and I’m sure people are probably looking for the individual plush? But I’m listing them as a set because I can’t bear to separate the plushies from their matching art on the box, sorry. ?

Note: There’s some light wear on the bottom of the box from sitting on tables and such. See the last photo. Otherwise, it’s in quite good condition. All the plushies have been very well protected in their bags over the years.

Yup, I still have this. I didn’t end up rolling on it during Offers phase. I just couldn’t bear to part with it for any of the offers received so I’m re-listing it here for a much higher amount. You could call this amount “crazy” and I wouldn’t disagree. If someone really wants it for this amount then okay but if it doesn’t sell, I’ll just have to keep it. ? There have been a few of these on eBay recently so I’d suggest checking there first if you’re looking for one.

Shipping this internationally will likely be very expensive and, given the value of the item itself, I’m skittish about shipping it outside the US for fear of loss/damage. So US buyers only, please. Sorry, folks.
