A plush toy system comprises a foam inner, formed into a character shape, made with a compressible foam. A flexible outer covering surrounds the foam inner and has an inner surface for contacting the foam inner. The foam inner and the flexible outer covering combine to form a plush toy. The system may include a package having at least one open side through which the plush toy traversed when compressed to fill an interior space of the package. In use, when the plush toy is compressed and contained within the package, upon opening of the at least one open side the plush toy at least partially expands out of the at least one open side of the package. When removed completely from the package the plush toy expands to the natural size of the plush toy, preferably three times its size or more when compressed.

A combination toy and tent includes a toy having a body portion defining therein a cavity, and a head portion coupled to the body portion. The head portion and the body portion together represent a character. A tent is transformable between a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration, the tent being positionable within the cavity in the body portion when in the folded configuration.

A three-dimensional transformable toy having a body with a first surface and a second surface and having a hollow cavity formed therein. A flexible fill material is positioned between the first and second surfaces. The toy also has expandable/contractable member positioned between the first and second surfaces and which surrounds an opening leading to the hollow cavity. The expandable/contractable member permits the opening to expand in size and contract in size as the body switches between the first and second configurations. The expandable/contractable member further creates a relatively flat bottom surface which allows the toy to stand upright in both the first and second configurations.

A plush toy system is provided that can be selectively securable to an object. The system may comprise a main body comprising a fabric cover at least partially defining an enclosed area. A first portion of the fabric cover may comprise a first connectable fabric operable to releasably attach to a second connectable fabric. The system may include a label having a first section fixed to the fabric cover and a second section removably coupled to the fabric cover. The system may also include a second portion comprising a first side and an opposing second side. The second side may comprise the second connectable fabric. The toy may be releasably coupled to the second portion when the first connectable fabric of the fabric cover is joined to the second connectable fabric.

The invention provides an antimicrobial fiber which exhibits excellent antimicrobial properties even without the addition of antimicrobial agents and can remain antimicrobial even after repeated washing. The antimicrobial fiber comprises a fiber having on a surface thereof a polyacetal copolymer (X) containing oxyalkylene groups, the molar amount of oxyalkylene groups in the polyacetal copolymer (X) being 0.2 to 5 mol % relative to the total of the molar amount of oxymethylene groups and the molar amount of oxyalkylene groups.

A plush toy that is configurable to change the face displayed on the toy. In a first embodiments, the hair is moveable to display a face flap that has a different face on each side of the flap. The flap can be positioned to display either side and face or can be stowed on the back of the toy's head to display a third face. In a second embodiment, a face strap is pulled to position a first and second face on the front of the plush toy. A third embodiment includes a moveable face hood that can be positioned in one of two positions to display two different faces.
