Pleasanton, CA, May 2026 — Plushie Dreadfuls, the toy company that promotes emotional well–being, empathy, and acceptance, launches the new Jupiter Bunny plushie into orbit, the latest in its space-inspired lineup. As Artemis II and Project Hail Mary inspire dreams of adventures into the unknown, this intergalactic plushie encourages discovery, exploration, and cuddles.
Straight from the Jovian System, the Jupiter Bunny ($52.99) brings the largest planet of our solar system into plushie form. Four colorful plush mini moons accompany it, a few of the 101 that orbit the celestial giant. Gentle swirls, like the gas currents that dance around the planet’s core, decorate the bunny’s long ears. Gold and tan patterns crisscross its soft fur, daring you to explore the planet’s distinct bands and eternal storms.
This interstellar plushie joins the Space Collection, which includes:
Galaxy Rabbit ($50): Stardust shimmers on this bunny’s ears, and its soft fur reflects the depths of space’s hues. Circuit board motifs adorn its body, a symbol of connection across the reaches of space and time. Assembled from fragments of starlight, error logs, and lost messages from the deep, it’s ready to accompany you into uncharted territory.
Mars Bunny ($45): This bunny proudly wears dappled colors that mirror the planet’s dusty surface. Equipped with a removable rover camera, it keeps a steady eye on the mysteries of the red planet. For those who love the science and research behind space exploration, this bunny is the perfect companion.
Black Hole Bun ($50): A journey into the void is just another day for this gravity-defying rabbit, marked with a bold infinity symbol on its ear. Its orange tie is not a fashion choice; it's a relativistic jet. Red paws and stitched yellow accents reflect an effort to hold it all together as the void bends light and logic.
Aurora Rabbit ($45): The mesmerizing Northern Lights ripple across the ears of this nebulous bunny. The solar and wind symbols on its chest represent the natural phenomena that create these magical auroras. Big sparkly eyes take in the wonder of nature, and encourage us to wonder at the cosmos, too.
Massive Star Bunny ($45): Born from the heart of a supernova, this rabbit sports iridescent ruffles that shimmer like the brightest celestial bodies. A star patch on its chest marks it as an illuminating force in the cosmos. This ethereal guardian has ears decorated with a galaxy pattern and is ready to keep watch through long, dark nights.
Full Moon Bunny ($45): The moons that cover this bunny’s ears bring memories of brave space explorers and exciting expeditions. It wears starlight like freckles and cradles the world while it rests. It’s easy to fall asleep under the crescent moon it wears.
Sun Bunny ($45): The bright yellow and orange fur captures the warmth and vitality of the shining sun. Its ruffle collar is made of solar flares and eclipses, showing that light isn’t just something we stand in, it’s something we carry with us. Though the two have never met face-to-face, this bunny is the Full Moon Bunny’s best friend. Their friendship symbolizes love across distance; apart, but always connected.
Area Fluffybun Alien Rabbit ($54.99): This otherworldly bunny and its intergalactic cow sidekick may just convince you of life in the stars. It comes equipped with a shimmering spacesuit and ray gun, ready for any space adventure. Its fierce look and glittering horns prove its bravery - as long as its green spotted copilot is along for the ride!

American McGee is a game designer, writer, and creative director best known for his darkly imaginative work that blends gothic aesthetics with psychological depth. Rising to prominence in the 1990s with his contributions to iconic games like Doom and Quake, he gained a cult following for American McGee’s Alice, a twisted reimagining of Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland through the lens of trauma and recovery. McGee’s work consistently explores themes of madness, identity, and emotional resilience, often drawing on literary influences and psychological motifs. Beyond gaming, he has expanded into storytelling, design, and merchandise (Plushie Dreadfuls), continuing to build emotionally resonant worlds that challenge convention and invite introspection.
