MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO - White Totoro - Hidamari Plush 20cm

This premium official soft toy brings a touch of softness and magic straight from the poetic world of Studio Ghibli. Officially licensed and produced by Semic, this collectable soft toy perfectly completes the trio of forest spirits from Japanese pop culture.

The design incorporates the unique stylistic features of the Japanese Hidamari collection, renowned for the exceptional softness of its textures and the immediate comfort it provides. This soft toy faithfully captures the round, simple and reassuring silhouette of the little white Totoro. Its ultra-soft plush texture offers a wonderfully delicate tactile experience, ideal for moments of tenderness or to add the finishing touch to a cosy interior.

The soft toy faithfully reproduces his distinctive physical features, boasting immaculately white fur, two small, upright ears and his characteristic large, wide-open round eyes. It is crafted from silky polyester fibres and features an ingenious polyethylene bead filling at its base. This system ensures excellent stability when seated, preventing it from tipping over. Designed to decorate a bedroom, adorn a collector’s shelf or accompany young and old alike in their daily lives, this collector’s item comes with its official Ghibli cardboard label.

In Hayao Miyazaki’s eponymous masterpiece released in 1988, My Neighbour Totoro, the White Totoro — whose real name is ‘Chibi Totoro’ — is the smallest and youngest of the forest spirits (around 109 years old). Unlike his grey and blue companions, he possesses the unique power to become completely invisible at will to escape the gaze of humans. It is him that little Mei spots first as he runs discreetly through the tall grass, carrying a small bag of acorns on his back. His curiosity and clumsiness will unwittingly lead the little girl through the magical thickets to the secret lair of the great, sleeping Totoro. This Hidamari version perfectly captures the innocence, discretion and profound cuteness of this character, who is an integral part of Miyazaki’s folklore.
