Freaking Awesome. I KNEW I shouldn't have blown off last fall's Plush You fair in Seattle. Damn.
Technically, the designer Serena Kuhl titled this iteration, "Poltergrab"; the Poltergoost models had the dude coming out of the Tee Vee about to his waist.
For more versions--none of which you can buy, sorry, slowpoke--check out Kuhl's site.

That is so wrong. I'm 32 and my heart still involuntarily skipped a beat when I saw that. Poltergeist terrified me. I thought I was over it, but alas, perhaps not.

I've run out the and obscure Italian lycra provider that sold it to me is no more. The light blue version you can sometimes get at Pink Ghost in Ft Lauderdale and Kismet in New York just had some as well. Otherwise email me! (Please excuse the pluggig-ness:)
