Before we proceed, let's see if the Lying Realistic Stuffed Tiger by Fiesta is a fibber. This realistic plush tiger claims to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Go ahead Mr. Stuffed Tiger, if that is your real name, raise your right paw and tell us about yourself. 'Ok. First of all, I measure eighteen inches. Granted, that is much smaller than a real tiger but pretty sizable for a plush tiger. I am realistic. Just look at my picture, the colors, the details, the stunning good looks, all of those things give me the right to call myself a realistic stuffed tiger. And finally, I'm lying.' Wait a minute, so you aren't realistic? Your Honor, this plush tiger is clearly not fit to testify. 'No, no, no! I'm lying! Lying down. Look at me, silly, I'm a lying stuffed tiger!' Yeah, you're a liar. 'No, you're an awful prosecutor. Besides, what am I on the stand for anyway? Plush tigers don't talk!' Finally, the truth! Case dismissed. As with all of Fiesta's stuffed animals, our Lying Realistic Stuffed Tiger is made of all new child safe materials and meets or exceeds all US safety standards. Surface washing is suggested for this honest plush tiger; recommended for ages 3 and up.
