If you're interested in getting one, pre-orders are now live on ThinkGeek.

I wish I had the money for this. I feel like I'd get it just to get it but I wouldn't really use it. Sadly, will have to pass
Boooooo
$180 for a bean bag!?
@chardir *Nintendo themed beanbag
Ftfy
Eeek...!
$ 180 ?!
$180 buys a hell of a lot of great games.
I would love it, but that cost??
Surely they could just sell the cover and you can buy your own beans for it, then it would smoosh down real small for delivery
It's very nice, but nothing on the giant Pokemon plushies that were out in Japan a while back.
Awesome!
@Bunkerneath
Or you can print the Boo by yourself.
Simple solution and very cheap.
It costs the same in Australia as the Snorlax beanbag.
My biggest issue with these is that they cannot be unzipped (so that beans can be added/replaced) or to have the externals cleaned, and I have little doubt that the Boo beanbag will be very much the same.
So, not only are you stuck with the beans, but you're also stuck with all of the germs on the beanbag... forever.
@Bunkerneath that's a smart solution!
Would love one but the price and the fact it'd get real grubby real quick make it a no for me. But now I want a big blue BOTW ChuChu bean bag!
@AlternateButtons "chair"... Are you sure you're not looking for a more intimate item?
Awesome.Ordered 2 👍
My House isn't clean enough for something as white as this
Want!
At that price?!?!
Make my own....

Shows picture of 12 year old girl on bean bag chair.
Kids and white furniture is such a bad mix.
ThinkGeek has a ton of cool (slightly expensive) stuff I wish I had...
For some reason that last photo which was a close up on the eyes made me laugh.
Since GameStop owns ThinkGeek, you can actually reserve one in store at your local GS store and not have to pay the $40 shipping if you really want one.
Oh wow... I think the last real bean bag chair I saw was in the 90s or early 2000s! I remember really wanting one like my Dad's friend's kids had, but he wouldn't let me because if they break it's a nightmare to clean. lol
I remember seeing some pseudo-bean bag chairs more recently, like 5-6 years ago, but they had much bigger foam beads instead and didn't really feel like the ones I remembered from when I was a kid with the tiny beads.
Those eyes doh
Wow that's a lot to pay to have a boo creepily stare at you whilst asleep. I'm amazed they insist on shipping this thing full, every beanbag I have ever bought has been shipped flat ready for your own beans. It makes an already over priced product even more unjustifiable. On the plus side it does look very well made.
Needless to say, this thing is going to fly off store shelves (no pun intended).
@Tsurii
Isn't it a bit redundant to say "Princess King Boo"? I think it would be Queen Boo or Booette.
Also I pretty sure if that becomes a thing then they would only make the torso the beanbag part :v
ThinkGeek is owned by GameStop...need I say more?
The price is scarier than the ghost.
Price is awful, but the chair is adorable.
Even a washing machine or a fridge wouldn't justify a $40 "heavy item" surcharge, let alone a bean bag... it's full of polystyrene!
I think if they also made that thing Bowser Jr. always flying around in, it would go nuts also,
(but $60 AT MOST NOT $140 X( , Yeeeesh !!!)
@Silly_G
don't forget that polystyrene also absorbs methane gas...
so try NOT to fart too much in it, not all the Lysol or fabric refresher sprays in the world still wouldn't help !!! (ESPECIALLY my farts)
@jhewitt3476 : Haha. Thanks for the tip.
I have a lightning fast metabolism (for better and for worse) and nobody ever suspects me of emitting the worst gas in the room (I'm the "silent but deadly" type), so I ought to exercise discretion before discharging my Poison Gas attack on poor, unsuspecting Snorlax.
@Silly_G
Snorlax...nice
White = easily dirty
@mantez Washing Machine=Easily cleaned
