The shape of plush toys is represented by the filling material. In the past, sawdust, shavings, waste cotton, etc. were generally used, but due to non-compliance with hygiene requirements, they are now rarely used. Nowadays, plush toys are usually filled with materials such as acrylic cotton, polyester, or sponge. When gently pinching plush toys with hands, the hand feels elastic and there are no hard lumps. The entire toy looks clearly defined, and when placed on a table, it should be able to stand on all four feet instead of tilting around. Flatten the toy body with your hands and release them. The toy should immediately return to its original state without any sagging or looseness, indicating that the filling material has sufficient elasticity and good texture.
The eyes of plush toys are the key to quality, and it is required to be firmly assembled and not easily detached to avoid being swallowed by children and causing negative consequences. It is best to use a spring scale to check its fastness, and the tensile force that the eyes can withstand should generally be above 90 Newtons. When choosing plush toys in the store, you can pinch your eyes with your thumb and index finger and pull them outward. If they cannot be easily pulled out, it is considered qualified. If you gently pull your eyes out, you cannot purchase them. Some plush toys use cartoon eyes, so it is necessary to check that the colors on them are not easily peeled off. You can wipe your eyes several times with your fingers, and there should be no staining on your fingers. For ordinary eyes, it is also necessary to check whether the installation is flat and whether there are obvious bubbles inside the eyes.
