Thymon Plushies, also known as Plush Thymons, (PROSE: The Frost King's Treasure) Thymon Plush Toys, were small, stuffed toy replicas of the eldritch god Lord Thymon, produced by Madame Tarsa.
“Several months” after the Darius incident, when Copper-Colored Cupids Pessimist-242 and Larrikin-1029 met Madame Tarsa by chance and ruined her plans to market Toy Cupids, Larrikin attempted to make up for the bad turn they'd dealt her by suggesting a different new product: plush effigies of Thymon. Pessimist was characteristically pessimistic about the line's chances of being a commercial success, (PROSE: The Toymaker's Labyrinth) but they turned out to be a hit, even “the best-selling toy of the year”, (PROSE: The Frost King's Treasure) with an unknown party within the Cupid Homeworld somehow ordering large numbers of them and getting them conveyed to the Homeworld without the Department of Postal Services' involvement.
The mystery got an article in Issue 1034 of The Cupid Courier, where Philatel-426 speculated that Thymon himself was the one purchasing and summoning them. Thymon, however, could not be reached for comment by the Cupid journalists, as he was working on his own stamp collection, and there was an alternative theory, with Dandy-432 speculating that Larrikin was the one ordering them to ensure that his suggestion became a success, having made it a point of pride. Larrikin could not be reached for comment either because he ran from the journalists when they approached him, refusing to “confess” to anything.

Indeed, the real Thymon became a fond collector of them, owning so many that them spilling out of their magical closet once caused a state of emergency in the Cupid Homeworld. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
The real Thymon has even been observed sleeping with a plushy of himself in his tendrils. (PROSE: The Honeymoon of Jenny Everywhere)
Thymon's daughter Sophie Everytime had at least one, and as a teenager she loaned it to Professor Awesome with the words, “I’ll come back when I can. Until then, maybe this will remind you of me.” (PROSE: Preludes and Knick-Knacks)
