A friend recently alerted me to these
Cthulhu plushes and I thought I'd post a little something I picked up in Japan for my impending "junior" - the humble
Baltan Plush, made by MegaHouse (2006).

Baltan is a crab-clawed enemy of Ultraman. For context here's a still taken from the awesome 3-disc series one, volume 1 set, available
here.
I gotta give credit and kudos to my pal Spacey Space for pointing out and suggesting the plush AND gifting the DVD-set to me! What a bloke!!!
