During the plushie sale, we managed to snag an Aegis for my brother, who really likes her! While the plush is a decent size and is very cute, it was still a bit difficult to justify spending around $16 on it, much less the original price. While I suspect it's because of the mechanism that allows her to open her arms so you can attach it onto a backpack or pencil, personally, I could do without it. Overall however, it's a pretty nice plush!
