Can we (collectively) do better than this?

So I saw this website in a magazine and I think their idea is hilarious (and have just ordered one for a friend) but I think they are kind of expensive and also a bit limited in their range. Therefore I was wondering if anyone out there had made anything like this or could think of a way to make one of these babies, cause I'd love to make one:

they're ok but not that wow that they justify a website with stuff on the creative team, how the idea was developed, desktop downloads, character profiles etc. etc. it's just two teddies ffs

but they look well made and kinda cool I guess.

I guess they're fun if you like that kind of thing, but the website seems so overdesigned and brimming over with unnecessary text. I mean, it takes them this many words to say "We use Paypal":

Quote:
At RoadkillToys.com Designer Plush Toys - home we use Paypal for all transactions. It seems to be the most commonly used system on the net. Ebay owns it, for Peter’s sake, so it must be good. With Paypal you can pay safely across the internet on your PC or Mac.
& £25? Wow, that's a lot of money for a cuddly toy. No wonder you're looking for a cheaper way to produce them Insomnia, which, incidentally, I can't help with.

I do think its a funny idea- but I think their options are limited as well. I'd quite like a squashed chihuahua. My sister has one and I have often fantasised about running it over.
