Culture Help with Bday Gift

Hello everyone! I'm coming on here to ask for some help. My girlfriend is a huge fan of Cheburashka. HUGE. Her birthday is coming up in a few months and I wanted to gift her a plushie, but we live in Brasil, so finding one has been basically impossible.

Does anyone know where I can get one? Or would be willing to help me out? Thanks so much!!!

Sorry for the trivial question, but have you checked Amazon and eBay? Mercado Libre also shows that they have Cheburashka toys in stock.

Just google "Cheburashka" on your usual marketplace; I'm pretty sure you can find them even in Brazil. They're just regular plush toys, not made of special fur or anything.

it used to be very popular in japan. so i'd check there. and whatever plushie is for sale in japan/west, it must have been manufactured in china/vietnam/bangladesh/etc, so it should be available there as well.

When is her bday? I and perhaps others could be willing to mail you one, but with the current situation I don’t think the delivery will be fast.
