If your little one enjoys collecting soft toys, they'll adore this Halloween plush, which is technically two toys in one as the bat is removable..

In awe with its snug feel, one buyer said: "I certainly can’t resist a cute cuddly and this little bat in a pumpkin seemed only right to add to the Halloween decorations. I certainly didn’t realise that his costume was detachable. I do feel there should be some sort of padding though so that it fitted the little bat better. It is easy to remove whether by little ones or big kids. The little bat also has an extra special uniqueness to him with his glow in the dark fangs as well as the stitching on his pumpkin costume and apparently his little eyes too. I have to be honest the only things that really glow is his fangs and costume, I can’t say his eyes glow as vividly."
