Rilakkuma Bunny Plush | Official Rilakkuma Store
Our Rilakkuma Bunny plush brings together the beloved bear’s relaxed personality with adorable bunny ears and soft pastel details. Each plush is crafted with premium polyester fabrics that hold their shape through years of cuddles and display.
We use a two-layer polyester construction — the outer shell is a dense 3mm pile that resists matting, while the inner fill combines polyester fiber with micro-pellets concentrated in the base. This combination gives our bunny plush a soft exterior and enough weight to sit upright without toppling.
Size & Display Dimensions
The plush measures 12 inches from base to ear tip when seated, with a 6-inch width at the widest point (mid-body). The footprint is roughly 5 inches deep, so it fits comfortably on standard bookshelf depths without overhanging.
We designed the proportions so collectors can arrange multiple characters side-by-side without crowding. The weighted pellet base keeps the plush stable even on slightly uneven surfaces — a detail that matters if you display on floating shelves or in areas with foot traffic nearby.
Care & Long-Term Maintenance
Spot-clean the plush with a damp cloth and mild detergent when needed — avoid submerging it completely, as the weighted pellets inside can retain moisture and develop mildew if not dried thoroughly. For dust removal between cleanings, use a soft-bristle brush or lint roller on the pile.
We recommend keeping the plush out of direct sunlight for extended periods. Polyester fabrics are generally colorfast, but UV exposure over months can cause pastel shades to fade slightly. Display near windows is fine as long as the plush isn’t in a beam of afternoon sun every day.

Common Questions About Our Bunny Plush
The plush is safe for ages 3 and up. All facial features are embroidered rather than plastic, eliminating choking hazards from detachable parts. The weighted pellets inside are enclosed in a sealed inner pouch, so they can’t be accessed even if the outer seam is damaged.
We recommend spot-cleaning only, as machine washing can shift the pellet fill and affect the seated posture. For toddlers who put toys in their mouths frequently, supervise play and clean the plush regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap.
The bunny plush features floppy, slightly bent ears and a pastel color palette that skews toward soft pinks and creams. The rabbit version has fully upright ears with more defined stitching and often includes seasonal details like floral accents or spring-themed accessories.
Both share the same 12-inch seated height and weighted base construction. Collectors often choose based on which ear style they prefer or which seasonal theme fits their existing display. Functionally, they’re identical in terms of fabric quality and durability.
We recommend spot-cleaning only. The weighted pellets inside can clump or shift position if the plush is fully submerged and agitated in a washing machine. If you need to clean the entire surface, use a damp cloth with mild detergent and work in small sections, then let it air-dry completely in a well-ventilated area.
For tougher stains, a small amount of fabric-safe stain remover applied with a soft brush works well. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals, as these can discolor the polyester pile over time.
Yes, the weighted pellet base is designed specifically for stable shelf display. The footprint is about 5 inches deep, so it fits on most standard bookshelf depths without tipping forward. The weight distribution keeps the center of gravity low, which prevents the plush from falling even if lightly bumped.
If you’re displaying on a very narrow ledge (under 4 inches deep), you may want to position it with its back against the wall for extra stability. On normal shelving, no additional support is needed.
Each plush includes an official San-X licensing tag sewn into the back seam. This tag verifies authenticity and includes care instructions in multiple languages. The plush itself doesn’t come with removable accessories like scarves or hats — the bunny costume is part of the permanent design.
Packaging is a clear polybag with a branded header card. If you’re purchasing as a gift, we recommend adding a gift box at checkout, as the standard packaging is designed more for protection during shipping than presentation.
This bunny plush is part of our standard 12-inch seated collection, which means it matches the height of most other costumed Rilakkuma characters. If you already own the classic bear or any seasonal edition, they’ll sit at the same eye level when displayed together.
We also offer a larger 18-inch pillow version and a smaller 4-inch keychain version. The 12-inch size is the most popular because it’s substantial enough for display but not so large that it dominates a shelf.
The embroidery is stitched directly into the fabric with reinforced thread, so it won’t peel or fade the way printed details can. We’ve tested the face stitching through hundreds of wash cycles in our quality control process, and it holds up without fraying or loosening.
Because there are no glued or painted elements, the expression will look the same years from now as it does on day one. This is one of the reasons collectors prefer our officially licensed plush over unlicensed versions that often use cheaper printing methods.
