    This was purchased to put in the windshield of my new SUV so I can more easily find my white car in the parking lot. Being the car can go anywhere, I thought a Tardigrade appropriate. It often ends up pulled out of the windshield when driving as someone wants to play with it. If you are thinking about it, get it. Cute, as pictured, soft, and quality.

    Got this for my mom, as she loves stuffed animals, particularly from giant microbes. I once told her about the waterbear, and she did not know what it was so I showed her a picture of it online. As soon as she saw it she fell in love with it and asked if there was a plus version of this animal. When she seen this I knew it would make for a great gift. Item arrived very quickly, great condition, great packaging and as described. item actually looks like a water bear with the exception that the color may not be like a real waterbear, as I believe they are brown in nature, but it is still totally beautiful, soft, accurate and cuddely and she loves it. I would definitely recommend getting this plush animal. It's very affordable too. :-)

    I bought this a s a joke gift for my wife. She likes tardigrades for some reason as they are called water bears and they are everywhere.The reason we don't run screaming into the wild is because we can't see them. But they are sort of cute and they are harmless. Not a gift for a child but all in all it makes sense to me after I got today's mail.
    The Tardigrade plush toy was only a few dollars. Yet a catalog I got offers ( seriously) a full sized Tyrannosaurus skeleton in resin for sale for only US $100,000.00. This thing is forty feet long!
    Say what you will but the Waterbear is a bargain and it's educational as well as easy to care for..
    I don't know if the real waterbears are blue but this one is staring at me now from a bowl of potpourri as i type this.
    Go buy one, you'll feel better about things tomorrow.

    Tardigrades (Water Bears) are one of my favorite animals!

    These critters are incredible...their microbe inspiration can survive the rigors of space!

    When I learned they make a stuffed animal version of it, I had to order one. They did a great job, and it's a cute little thing that fits my sense of humor but I don't get to keep one. My grandson immediately liked it and took one, and he's not even old enough to understand the amazing characteristics of Hypsibius dujardini, my less say tardigrade. Then my second one, for me, is instead destined for my wonderfully brilliant little niece!
