Heh, I haven't clicked but I think I know which one isn't in stock...and it's NEVER in stock. (does it start with an H and end with an -erpes?)
I currently have the ulcer one and the strep one (both gotten for me by a friend from a yard sale....the same friend who I got the mono one for when I found out that she had mono)
A friend and I got the MRSA one for our biology prof who loves diseases...he thought it was pretty funny....it has a cape that says "super-bug"
I gave away my flu one to a girl I taught in AWANA who really wanted it...he rode around on my book bag for an entire year before I gave him away though...it was pretty funny, I took him off of my book bag twice that year, and each time I ended up getting sick within a couple days of him not being on my bag...but as long as he was on my bag, I didn't get sick.

(no, I'm not superstitious...why do you ask?)

Sorry for the random post...it's late...I love plush microbes...I just wrote 3 more pages for my paper about lemurs...all of that to say: I'm a little weird right now.

Oh, huh, it's swine flu that's not in stock...odd, usually it's the herpes one.

They've got these at the campus bookstore! I ended up buying my boyfriend the mono one... so he told me that now he can tell people that I gave him mono.  

I wanted to get him swine flu, but unfortunately it wasn't in stock! I guess that's for one of my siblings this Christmas, if I can find one!

Actually, this looks easy enough for the seamstresses among us -- Christmas gifts, anyone?

Some of them would be easy...if you have access to the plush material...but some of them would be more difficult to make look good. I'm willing to be proven wrong, but I can't imagine that they could be made all that easily and look just as good for less than the $8 they cost retail.
