Oddly funny

You probably never thought you’d want to cuddle with Black Death. But if you’re not immune to oddly fun humor, you’ll love playing with Giant Microbes.

Although they’re modeled after deadly diseases, each uniquely shaped microbe has the same plush feel and adorable eyes of traditional stuffed animals. This combination of weird and cute make these pathogenic pals a funny gift. The flesh eating-bacteria even bears the outline of a knife and fork for an extra laugh.

These germs are sick, bro.

No microscope needed

If you’ve ever wanted to look in the eyes of the lousy virus making you feel awful, you finally have your chance. Although real-life germs are invisible to the naked eye, Giant Microbes are one million times the size so you can see em’ and squeeze em’.

Whether you want to cuddle them for comfort or crush them in anger between coughs, these handheld toys are as close as you’ll get to holding the real deal.

Get plagued by cuteness.

Textbook cuddle-tude

Although they seem kooky and fun in their own right, Giant Microbes are based on real diseases and present a good opportunity to learn about the microorganisms that make up our world. The back of each package contains interesting tidbits about the pathogens inside, including pictures taken under the microscope for your comparison.

Each Giant Microbe has a handy tag with its name so you can clearly identify each specimen.

How can something so deadly be so cute?

Gotta catch em’ all.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: Do these contain actual viruses?

Answer: Thankfully, Giant Microbes are only stuffed replicas of actual viruses.

Question: Is the Zombie Virus real?

Answer: The zombie virus from the Zombie Attack collection is modeled after the Pithovirus sibericum virus, which became reanimated after laying dormant in Siberian frost for 30,000 years. It has not been known to induce brain-eating tendencies in humans… yet.
