Companion Cube plush toys! News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 News by Tom Bramwell

17 December, 2007

After what seems like two and a bit months, Valve has finally started selling Weighted Companion Cube plush toys. And then stopped selling them after everyone bought all of them.

As with all Valve merchandise, the Cubes - our old friends from Portal, do keep up - can be found on the Valve Store, and fortunately you can still pick up Weighted Companion Cube furry dice to hang from your car's rear-view mirror. We don't have a car, but will now consider buying one.

The Cubes aren't the only Portal goodies on the Valve Store, either, with an Aperture Laboratories coffee mug, a holiday greeting pack ("hello, holiday!"), and some posters with which to decorate your cell.

Other Orange Box stuff includes a range of Team Fortress 2 posters and a lithograph, a Portal shirt, and of course all the Half-Life things you could ever want, including headcrab plush toy and hat, and even a Vortigaunt plush toy like the one John Walker got me but has somehow never, ever given to me because he hates me probably.

For more on The Orange Box, you could check out our PS3 review of The Orange Box. It's where all the cool kids shout at each other.

I would have ordered one when they went on sale, but I figured there was no way I'd get it from the US in time for christmas, so I didn't bother.

Maybe for valentines

Have they not left it a bit late to start selling "holiday cards"? Or are they for next year?

Didn't know about that site. Some of those t-shirts are rather nice too.

headcrabs were understandable but this is a bridge too far, it's merchandise oppurtunity where none should exist. A fucking cube ffs.

No shortages with the paper printout-cutout version. Cube placed on desk for some time now :)

Anyone managed to buy one of the Aperture mugs? It won't add to the cart now that I have logged in - maybe they don't ship them to the UK?
