I chose to purchase Candy-chan because of the plushie's unusual coloration. I adore the multiple pastel colors, which are expertly coordinated. The effect is beautiful, and Candy-chan is SUPER adorable. I also chose Candy-chan because Candy-chan is a distinct Loppy, unique to the, "Pastel," Loppy collection; and as such, Candy-chan has expanded my own AMUSE® Pote usa Loppy collection.
