Well, at least it doesn't have those deadly magnetic fields to probe my thoughts...

They exist in a 0 oxygen environment, fire doesn't work!

Very cool - I've not seen plushie fan art in any fandoms before. I like the striated pattern on everything, too.

Well, the only plushie fan art I can think of is the plethora of Cthulu dolls that are floating around the internet nowadays.
Thanks though!

Same here, that's what caught my eye.
Are the tentacles pre-shaped or do you have something rigid but flexible running down through each, like heavy gauge wire?

They weren't pre-shaped, but the way the scales were cut ended up giving it a bit of a natural curve.
After I stuffed it, I used coathangers that I had pulled apart and straightened them out to use in the arms. Its what allowed me to actually suspend it from the roof and walls - the wire can be bent around the piping and give it some extra strength.
I'm going to start working on some smaller scramblers soon. If I just use small amounts of stuffing, then the wire use can be avoided.

That site is pretty interesting. Very neat little buddy you made here. I kind of want to give it a hug.
