Hieronymus remains a favorite among the set of toys currently in rotation. The blue space pig has the advantage of being especially round and squishy (and thus withstanding chomps) while appearing to have interesting extremities worthy of a solid grab-and-thrash. I presume, however, that Barley has no particular sense of where its “face” is, and that she is not, in this moment, trying to spare its innocence.
