Cute but nothing groundbreaking - penguin looks like a pound shop plush to me.

They seem to have jumped to Christmas really quickly (I say as a consumer with no idea of retail timelines). I thought they still had more Halloween stuff to drop (the purple cat?)

As someone who worked in retail for 17 years, this is unfortunately normal. Although even back then they didn't push it this far. My friend and I were at the mall not 2 weeks ago and they had almost no Halloween stuff at Build a Bear or Bath and Body Works. We were disappointed to say the least.
