Pandemic Plush Toy

MEXICO CITY, Mexico - A man from Mexico is trying to capitalize on the H1N1 virus with a new line of stuffed animal called Achufy! The small, blue stuffed figurine is supposed to commemorate the latest outbreak of H1N1 in Mexico and across the globe. For 345 pesos (roughly $30.00 U.S.) people can purchase Achufy!
The creator of Achufy! says the stuffed animal is, "A souvenir of the 2009 Epidemic that united Mexico. You can use the stuffed animal to tell your grandchildren of this unique experience in history."
The creator has been criticized, being called "opportunistic." But, others feel the idea is "genius."
You can view the purchase place for the toy here. Some users on the purchasing site have commented how similar the toy appears to the Common Cold toy of international company GIANTmicrobes.com
