Valve creates most disgustingly adorable toys since Garbage Pale kids

http://store.valvesoftware.com/index.html

Being a manly, barrel-chested, grizzled man, I do things like pull tractor-trailers with my teeth, get into fist fights with polar bears or play with action figures that definitely aren’t dolls, it’s not often I’ll comment on things as so very un-manly as plush toys. But holy crap, are these Left 4 Dead plush toys not adorable? Well, as adorable as hideous, plush, stuffed monstrosities can be, I suppose.

Released just recently on The Valve Store, the Left 4 Dead Boomer is the first of five Infected plush toys. The price is a little steep at $49.95, but it is 13 in. tall and requires 3 AA batteries to produces 10 in-game sounds from Left 4 Dead 2.

The Boomer is the first of five Infected plush toy designs. Looking at the website, the other planned toys are the Tank, Hunter, Smoker and the last could be the Witch, Spitter or Jockey but it’s hard to say. It’s hard to say just who this plush is supposed to appeal to – is there a market for products primarily aimed at scarring kids?
