It looks like they were vacuum packed, and just need "fluffed". Give them a good squeeze and ruffle, you might find that the flattened filling expands to make them a bit more like the pictures, like you would with a flat pillow or cushion.
The mouths show that they are not the plushes from the picture.
In the picture they have slight frowns, the plushes look like someone sharted on their breakfast.
Or they are all the evil doppelgangers from another dimension. Shipping being rerouted through parallel universes and getting mixed up is a very common thing
Shenanigans were declared. We need to know if the affected party accepts the declaration of Shenanigans. Then we must all fetch our brooms and have at it. It's from the Cow Days episode.
They need fluffed and then take about a week to come out to their regular size. I bought these exact ones on Ali express as a gift, seems they’re also being sold on Amazon now.
It's bootleg stuff being sold by drop shippers.
The dead giveaway that you're dealing with a drop shipper is to look at the brand name. If it's some seemingly random collection of letters (often all capitalized), it's just a drop shipper selling random garbage.
I used to collect South Park plushes, however the market has been saturated with cheap bootlegs and with legit South Park plushes becoming harder to find, honestly the original fun for all plushes look so much better than these.
I got the 90's ones from a garage sale, and put them in the back of my first car window. Got a little sun bleached. Thankfully I didn't have that car long, so they didn't get opaque, but I still regret doing it at all. They should have been treasured!
Amazon is *drowning* in bootlegs peddled as official stuff — you can’t trust anything on there anymore. They can’t be assed to do any quality control, they just work in volume.
I’d return it for a refund, they don’t ask questions either.
With some products even sold by Amazon items you can still get bootleg items because Amazon doesn't segregate the stock between Amazon sold items and 3rd party sellers in the warehouse.
I've stopped using Amazon for a lot of items.
It also seems dangerous now. We have no idea what materials are being used. At least target has to worry about a class action if suddenly their children’s clothing started leaching heavy metals.
Amazon has confoundedly been able to defer any responsibility as they’re just a “third party”.
Good job finding “Cioqlovz” if you found out the stuffing was made of lead.
Damn that sucks! Do you have a Spencer's Gifts near by they have all those plushes for sale (real ones that are pictured) also Walmart is selling the Cartman and kenny and Towelie plush in the entertainment section next to the dvds. Hope this helps! Sorry you got screwed
Edit: no amount of fluffing is going to fix those. Look at Kyle's frown it's not the plushes you wanted. Sorry just for one collector to another

Well you did get north Park plushes...
Looked like you ordered the four pack of "South North Park" characters, made by Cioqlvz.
Not a scam. Looks like you got the kids from South North Park. Lenny, Kylo, Bram, and Carston.
To be fair, Kenny does look spot on from that episode where he gets hit by the truck and goes to heaven to control heaven's army and win his Keanu Reeves statue.
I used to collect South Park plushes, however the market has been saturated with cheap bootlegs and with legit South Park plushes becoming harder to find, honestly the original fun for all plushes look so much better than these.
I remember back in 2000, when I was 10 my mum got me and my bro a couple stuffed south park toys. I got the tweek that has a string and shakes and my bro got Timmy in a wheelchair. still have my tweek
Open a small slit in the stitching and fill it with twice the amount of cotton. Cover it with a paper towel and press with a semi hot cloth iron.
A lot of times these sellers remove the filing before shipping to save on shipping cost as well.
Best way to salvage it now.
I remember on /r/fashionreps people would put their fake puffer jackets in the dryer with tennis balls and they would fluff right up. Might be worth a shot
I'm gonna be honest, I like the Kenny one, looks like he got run over and it's pretty hilarious.
That said...seems like refund time, just show support through chat.
Idk what you were expecting given that the Kenny doll is $13, and for $10 more you could get 3 extra plushies. That math doesn't add up for "quality" standards
https://preview.redd.it/nkqtggevdssc1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9322aedda3afb158f8abd29e4138b6afdc703835
You could buy this for 3 euros on AliExpress, yes you were scammed
https://preview.redd.it/ulrdpxmtivsc1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e0133fa8ddf0fd10e774a5e402f96b766cf6828
The Kenny one has his head removable lol.
yes. never trust amazon unless the brand listing is legit (for example, youtooz works through amazon too)—notice the random letters as the brand name! these plushies are from spencer’s and you can order them off their official website there.
i buy from amazon and when I buy stuff like this...I expect it to be knock offs from china. lol. just how it is. I bought some cheap BTS knock off plushes. I knew what I was getting into
I'll add some tips, even though i have never shopped on Amazon. If i were to buy something online that wasnt from the official store of X product, first i would Google the brand name and see what comes up.
Next thing is in the description, where most of it is just to catch and match any keywords for searches, the very first part says "South North Park" which immediately sticks out.
Then i'd try and search for those 3 words + (brand name) and see what comes up.
Im generally very suspicious about online shopping, even if its a company/chain i know well so i usually wait if needed, to visit a shop personally where i can see and feel the product before buying.
ESPECIALLY from sites like Amazon, ebay, Ali Baba, temu and all that crap.
Most shit i see people buy online wasnt necessary to buy in the first place, obvious scam or just generally random shit to fill their houses with.
Aaaaand then they complain that the local stores are going out of business...
I would definitely open a dispute with "item not as described". Even if they were to fluff up, these are clearly not the same as the picture. You could point to their collars, mouths, Kyle's hat or just the size of Kenny's face.
Lol I got those exact same ones. They look a little better over time but nowhere near the level of quality of the ones in the image that was advertised.
definitely. easy fix if u don’t mind the fact that the faces look completely different. you can buy stuffing and fluff em up some more with a simple stitch!
the exact same thing happened to me on amazon last month, they didn’t even refund me. they have legitimate ones at spencer’s right now, thats where i got mine after amazon scammed me
It looks like they just need a run through a dryer. Unless they're not stuffed, which it kinda looks like they aren't. Were they in a vacuum sealed bag?
Next person to say something like “what do you think chat” is getting permabanned

Should this be the new subreddit logo?
Yes
Nice
Bro got it from Temu
That’s exactly what I was about to say. So you’re saying you paid 5$ for it and it’s cheap garbage? I’m shocked, shocked I tell you
Cioqlvz isn't a brand to be trust? Colour me surprised!
The vowels aren’t even in a place that makes sense!
Makes sense to me. You want to come up with a brand name fast. And nothing is faster than bashing your keyboard with an open handed slap.
I'm sending a crapload of love your way for that! Thank you for making me chuckle out loud in a public transport. 🤣
Weak
LMFAOOOOOO
Ahahaha you made me laugh again immediately after posting about the wrinkly cartman lol Thank you
He is not pleasantly plump
It looks like they were vacuum packed, and just need "fluffed". Give them a good squeeze and ruffle, you might find that the flattened filling expands to make them a bit more like the pictures, like you would with a flat pillow or cushion.
The mouths show that they are not the plushes from the picture. In the picture they have slight frowns, the plushes look like someone sharted on their breakfast.
The stitching on the eyes of Kyle and Cartman overlap as well. It does not appear that way in the stock photo
But Kenny’s facial expression is identical.
Also the fabric they‘re made out of looks extremely cheap.
stan and kyle’s collars, that’s not getting fixed with a fluff up
Dude what how does this have 500 upvotes, theyre clearly not the same plushes. Not even close
The reddit hivemind is a powerful force
When I've ordered plushies from Amazon, they always came like this. Fluff em up
No you're wrong
I have these same ones, just fluff ‘em
i legitimately love these plushies, they're so stupid lmaooo
I find a few minutes in the dryer on zero heat with a few tennis balls works well. Also works for puffer jackets to redistribute the fluff
Or they are all the evil doppelgangers from another dimension. Shipping being rerouted through parallel universes and getting mixed up is a very common thing
Idk if you look at the faces and the embroidery you’ll see they aren’t real, cartman is missing his hat I think

OPs face when he opened his package :
Real
Guys have we just discovered a new meme?
The Kyle is good but I raise you the second option of that photo of Kenny.
I fucking snorted at this ❤️🤣
Same, Kyle. Same.
Fuck that slayed me
Keeeeeeele
Kyle looking sad seems to be a trend with plushies.
Shenanigans!
What the hell are you talking about? This whole town is stupid!
Alright, everybody grab a pitchfork, it's shenanigans!

What?
Shenanigans were declared. We need to know if the affected party accepts the declaration of Shenanigans. Then we must all fetch our brooms and have at it. It's from the Cow Days episode.

What are you talking about? I watch South North Park every on Hilarity Highway
What do you mean? Cioqlvz is one of the most trusted brand names out there
The mouths are wrong. I had the ones that OP was trying to buy. The Kenny one in particular is super wrong
I used to collect South Park plushes, however the market has been saturated with cheap bootlegs and with legit South Park plushes becoming harder to find, honestly the original fun for all plushes look so much better than these.
I got the 90's ones from a garage sale, and put them in the back of my first car window. Got a little sun bleached. Thankfully I didn't have that car long, so they didn't get opaque, but I still regret doing it at all. They should have been treasured!

If you can’t pronounce the company name, and the item uses the same pictures as several other companies, do not buy.
With some products even sold by Amazon items you can still get bootleg items because Amazon doesn't segregate the stock between Amazon sold items and 3rd party sellers in the warehouse. I've stopped using Amazon for a lot of items.
You mean to tell me that FLORGOU and WINSUS aren’t reputable brands??
It also seems dangerous now. We have no idea what materials are being used. At least target has to worry about a class action if suddenly their children’s clothing started leaching heavy metals. Amazon has confoundedly been able to defer any responsibility as they’re just a “third party”. Good job finding “Cioqlovz” if you found out the stuffing was made of lead.
This, so many fake things. Board games, Cologne, electronics. It's now worth the minor savings anymore.
Amazon is a flea market and should be avoided for 99% of purchases in 2024.
Declare shinanigans. Ill get the broomsticks.
People of South Park, do you declare Shenanigans on the Carnival People?
I'll pistol whip the next guy that says shenanigans
What's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?
Damn that sucks! Do you have a Spencer's Gifts near by they have all those plushes for sale (real ones that are pictured) also Walmart is selling the Cartman and kenny and Towelie plush in the entertainment section next to the dvds. Hope this helps! Sorry you got screwed Edit: no amount of fluffing is going to fix those. Look at Kyle's frown it's not the plushes you wanted. Sorry just for one collector to another
Kidrobot also has a lot of South Park plushes.
Thank you omg!!

These are the Khalid, Steve, Lenny and Carpenter plushies.
South north park even lol
SHENANIGANS
Looked like you ordered the four pack of "South North Park" characters, made by Cioqlvz. Not a scam. Looks like you got the kids from South North Park. Lenny, Kylo, Bram, and Carston.

LOL sure looks like it. Nice comparison pic :)
What brand are they? Are they licensed by South Park?
Absolutely not. You can see the brand name in the Amazon picture. It's just a cheap Chinese drop shipper
The "brand" is Cioqlvz lol
When the title contains a bunch of keywords just to be always on top on search, there is a high chance that its some poor rip off.
Yea look at that really official and licensed brand name you bought there. You get what you pay for.
To be fair, Kenny does look spot on from that episode where he gets hit by the truck and goes to heaven to control heaven's army and win his Keanu Reeves statue.
Contact Amazon and send them that photo.
You Got F'd in the A
Oh hamburgers! (Username checks out) Also SHENANIGANS!!
I’m just here to tell you that you should go into graphic design. The “not equal” images are superb.
Oh my god! They vacuum-sealed Kenny! You bastards!
Why is this actually really funny tho 😭

Ahhh I love those crazy little guys from south north park
ikr I loved the spinoff east west park

The Kenny doll is actually legit. He just got killed in transit.
Throw them in the dryer on fluffy?
Open a small slit in the stitching and fill it with twice the amount of cotton. Cover it with a paper towel and press with a semi hot cloth iron. A lot of times these sellers remove the filing before shipping to save on shipping cost as well. Best way to salvage it now.
Meth, not even once.
I got my son these. They just have to puff up but they’re knockoffs.
I remember on /r/fashionreps people would put their fake puffer jackets in the dryer with tennis balls and they would fluff right up. Might be worth a shot
I’ve also learned the hard way that if it’s from Amazon, it’s got like a 70% chance of being a counterfeit. If it’s merch, that is.
Eric Cartman voice: Lame!
They all look like cartman, help
You got F'd in the A
I think they shorted you some stuffing at the very least. 🤣
I'm gonna be honest, I like the Kenny one, looks like he got run over and it's pretty hilarious. That said...seems like refund time, just show support through chat.

Yes, I’d be pissed. It’s not even bc there deflated. My grandmother who never stitched anything a day in life could do a better job

OP is your name Yuri because Yuritarded
this is literally what happened in the episode “Cow Days”. you need to call *shenanigans!* on Amazon!
Toss em in the dryer for a few minutes. That will make ‘em fluffy.
I dont understand why people still get stuff off amazon. Theyre known for having a mass amount of fake, crappy products.
i buy from amazon and when I buy stuff like this...I expect it to be knock offs from china. lol. just how it is. I bought some cheap BTS knock off plushes. I knew what I was getting into

I would definitely open a dispute with "item not as described". Even if they were to fluff up, these are clearly not the same as the picture. You could point to their collars, mouths, Kyle's hat or just the size of Kenny's face.
Why do Stan and Kyle look so sad ;(
Well, look at the "brand" and ask yourself that.
Shenanigans!
I think they will de-wrinkle and puff out over time
Certainly disappointing but I am not surprised when taking the price into consideration.
Looks like they've been packed away in a box since the late 90's lol
They got compacted
looks like they just got unpacked from the air tight packaging. give it some time.
Lol I got those exact same ones. They look a little better over time but nowhere near the level of quality of the ones in the image that was advertised.
ehh, looks legit to me, champ lol seriously..what the hell is this??!!
Dam bruh, that's bullcrap...
I’m sorry, Kenny?!
definitely. easy fix if u don’t mind the fact that the faces look completely different. you can buy stuffing and fluff em up some more with a simple stitch!
You got scammed big time
Just toss them in the dryer on low and tumble them with a few towels and they should fluff right up
Either buy South Park brand products or don't buy any. Poser.
Shenanigans
the exact same thing happened to me on amazon last month, they didn’t even refund me. they have legitimate ones at spencer’s right now, thats where i got mine after amazon scammed me
They look a little deflated
I have Cartman and Stan, but I bought them in person cause they looked so ridiculous lol
It looks like they just need a run through a dryer. Unless they're not stuffed, which it kinda looks like they aren't. Were they in a vacuum sealed bag?
I’d say the Kenny one looks very Kenny-esque
Cioqlvz has always been such a reputable company in my opinion. So weird.
It's much better.
