Melissa & Doug Giant Lion - Lifelike Stuffed Animal (Over 6 feet Long)

I love Melissa and Doug stuffed plush animals and add new ones to my collection from time to time. Their quality is usually exceptional to good. I had only one substandard plush dinosaur in the past but they guaranteed satisfaction and let me choose a replacement product. When I decide to buy lifelike realistic stuffed animals, this is the company I choose.This lifelike lion is wonderful and looks so real, even better than on the Amazon website. It is regal, lightweight, and soft. I bought this to put on my king-size bed (see photos) and I absolutely love it. With this addition, I now have a collection of eight Melissa and Doug plush animals as follows below and I name all of them. This lion is listed last in the list below.- Jumbo Bunny Rabbit - Daisey (5 stars - this item)- Giant Owl - Screech (5 stars)- Giant Giraffe - Sofie (variation on Sophie) (5 stars)- Giant Cheetah - Luxxy (4 stars)- Lemur - Flint (5 stars)- Giant Dalmatian - Sally (5 stars)- Llama - Sasha (4 stars)- Lion - Albert (5 stars)In summary, this lion is another good plush toy from Melissa and Doug. It is a wonderful gift for a child or for someone like me who loves to collect (and name) their lifelike plush animals. I also consider the current price of $75 plus tax a good deal.

AMAZING PRODUCTS .. MY GRANDSON LOVES LIONS AND THIS ONE LOOKS LIFELIKE. VERY GOOD MATERAIL EASY TO WIPE OFF , WE USED IT FOR A LION KING BDAY PARTY AND IT WAS A HUGE HIT WITH TAKING PICTURES WITH

When I first received this big boy, I thought he was done wrong, because one leg was much longer than the other, and I didn’t remember a mention of this anywhere in the description. I realized that this was intended to simulate the lion lounging, which makes sense. I bought this for a zoo themed trunk or treat decoration, and the kids absolutely adored him! I can’t tell you how many children asked if he was real. LOL. He’s soft, although his mane has a very acrylic feel and is a bit scratchy. The face looks very nice, but it is feels like a semi-rigid plastic form underneath the fabric. Too much pressure against this, and I fear it could be crushed in. He’s large, with a long tail and a sturdy, well proportioned, quality made body. His colors are very realistic and evenly done. There is no bleeding in the fabric, and the stitching is even and complete on all seam lines. While I love many of Melissa and Doug products, they can be a hit or miss on occasion. This one was a hit. Pricey, but worth the cost. He will make a wonderful addition to my grandchildren’s bedroom and I would highly recommend him as a gift for any child (or adult) in love with wild animals.

Big, beautiful lion with the soulful eyes. My grandson loved him right away.

Very lifelike and fun. We bought this lion for our daughter around the time she was 1 — A couple of years ago. She loved this lion so much and had so much fun riding on his back. She turned 3 recently and still loves lions and animals in general. It is a lifelike size with excellent realistic detail. He’s perfect for a small child to to sit on his back and pretend to “ride” him. So I think it’s best to make sure you have enough space to put them on the floor on a soft surface for the most play options. He really is lifelike and great quality. We still have him and I think he’s going to be a permanent fixture for a long time -such a fine magnificent friend.

The media could not be loaded. "Mufasa" is part of the family now and has been providing fun and "horsey rides" for my kids for years now! He is so soft, very durable and his quality has stood the test of time! Must have for a kids room or playroom!

Bought this for my twins nursery! So cute and fun and lightweight, I intend on getting multiple stuffed animals for their room but if you are on the fence just get it!

It’s nice and big, somewhat rough towards the head but that’s fine.
