This plush kangaroo has a pouch that holds a plush joey—another name for a baby kangaroo—just like the ones Kira helps care for at the animal sanctuary.
SKU#: GVF49 $32
I don’t have Kira’s Kangaroo & Joey, but I’ve looked at the set in stores and thought I’d get a review up while it’s still available.
The kangaroo and joey are very cute stuffed animals. They’re each made of soft grayish brown fuzzy plush, with off-white ears, paws, and bellies, black plastic safety eyes, and soft black noses. The mama kangaroo stands upright, balancing well on her back legs and tail. I really like how her pouch has an elastic band, which makes it easy to tuck her joey safely inside. The joey is very similar in size and construction to the wallaby joey that comes with the Wallaby Care Set, it’s just a different color. Overall I think this pair is very cute, and although the scale might be undersized like many AG animals, I appreciate the quality, functionality, and playability.
Here are some photos from the LA stores (the old one at the Grove and the newer pop up in the Century City mall), showing the relative size and a close up. Sorry the joey is hanging unceremoniously from the mama’s pouch in the displays; I didn’t think to tidy them up at the time.
