I will admit it up front: I am a Cthulu stuffed toy freak. Got ‘em all so far: the large fuzzy stuffed Cthulu. The mini Cthulu. The Christmas Cthulu. A couple of the spawn o’ Cthulu.

A friend has told me he has seen a goth Cthulu stuffed toy for sale in a store - silver lame and black instead of the normal green. Nothing shows up on a google search except the regular items I have. And of course he can’t remember the name of the store (he was on a business trip in a different city and forgot to get a business card).

Can anyone help me find one? Or is my friend yanking my proverbial chain? I am not normally a materialistic person, but for Cthulu, I’ll make an exception.

I’ve never seen the one you’re talking about, but you might want to try bluesnake.com- they had a lot of Cthulhu stuff the last time I checked, mainly the green plush one and some action figures, but maybe they’ve gotten more. I’ve heard rumors of a Shub Nigurath doll, but I can’t find that one.

Um… there’s a picture at the bottom of the auction. [This one](http://www.paperbackbazaar.com/auction/new/gcthulhu.jpg), to be exact.
