Pokemon Center Life Size vs Heartland Lucario: A Comparison

[lostlatios]

So I just got my Pokemon Center Life Size Lucario preorder in and boy does he not disappoint! But I am incredibly fortunate to own another incredible Lucario plush and the closest thing we had to a life size Lucario up until this most recently release: The Heartland Lucario. So I've taken the rare opportunity to compare the two side by side.

I adore this collection of plushies! How many do you have? Are you trying to get one of every Pokémon?

Thank you! I currently have 516 xD I do try to get ones of pokelon I don't have but mainly if they are interesting! So I don't just go for say the Pokémon Fit plushies.

Very cool! Have you ever shown off your whole collection before?

This was such a fun comparison! Thank you for taking the time to post these pictures! :D Seeing the paws next to each other creates a much larger contrast than I thought there would be. The thread sculpting on the Heartland one is really awesome!

This was a well thought out and informative little comparison! As someone who has these two guys myself, I find myself looking at them much more closely now! I totally agree with the foot shape comparison, too. While the new life size Lucario's feet are shaped in such a way that they have a firm base for the body to stand upright, they lose a lot of charm that the heartland Lucario has with the threading on its paws. I do super enjoy the material the life sized is made of in comparison to the heartland, though! I'm a sucker for minky and while the variation of materials on the heartland make it interesting and sculpture-like, it doesn't make it very cuddly.
