Top 10 Ugly Squishmallows (User-Rated)
1. Elda The Ostrich
Elda the Ostrich is a 2-inch bird Squishmallow you can squish into a car, plane, or carriage. However, because of the top of its head, this supposedly "ostrich" looks more like a colorful, hairy pig than a bird.
Some say its vehicle even looks cuter than the mini Squshmallow itself. Still, who can resist this super-soft plush?
You can give this as a gift to a Squishmallow lover - both young and old, or add it to your mini Squishmallows collection.
2. Sinclair The Avocado Toast
This 5-inch Squishmallow made of super soft spandex and polyester is squishy and cuddly.
However, its appearance might make you wonder why this avocado toast Squishmallow is covered in what looks like pieces of confetti (which are supposed to be pepper and flakes).
3. Malcolm the Mushroom
Malcolm the Mushroom is an 8-inch tall cuddly squish toy that would make a great travel companion or bedtime buddy.
It is supposed to be a romantic mushroom, but to some, the top of its head seems off. But for others, it is a perfectly normal Squishy—or is he? We'll leave the decision up to you.
4. Denton the Chameleon
Denton the Chameleon is a 12-inch plush backpack with a large zipper compartment and adjustable shoulder straps.
However, we wonder if anyone can guess what Denton is at first glance. While it's supposed to be a chameleon, it looks like a dinosaur drawn by a kid.
5. Buzz Lightyear
This 12-inch plush may be cute, but without the green and purple uniform, it would be hard to tell that it is Sheriff Woody's best friend, Buzz Lightyear [1].
Buzz Lightyear Squishmallow bears the proper colors, but his head- the marking on the chin, and the eyebrows just a little too on fleek. Nevertheless, this cute Buzz Lightyear Squishy would make any Toy Story fan incredibly happy.
So what's the best Squishmallow?
6. Wendy the Frog
Wendy the Frog is a micro mallow plush measuring 2.5 inches tall and comes with 1 enamel pin and 24 trading cards.
Wendy belongs to the Original Squad and is on the list of the first 8 Squishmallows to be released.
What's off about Wendy is that you can't tell precisely whether she's a frog or a huge green blob with a smiley face and huge ears.
We're kidding - we can say with absolute certainty that Wendy is a frog, and she would make an excellent gift for someone who loves nature, particularly amphibians [2].
7. Meadow the Blue Horse
Some people may need clarification about what Meadow the Horse is supposed to be - is it a cow, a pig, or, as its name suggests, a horse?
Nonetheless, Meadow loves listening to thunderstorms at night.

8. Oogie Boogie
For good reasons, Oogie looks scarier than it is "ugly," this Squishmallow is inspired by Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Give this 8-inch Squishy to a Tim Burton fan in your life and wish them sweet dreams.
9. Flip a Mallows
Due to its unique and whimsical design, the Flip a Mallows Squishmallow may appeal to only some. Reddit users agreed that it is less visually appealing or charming than more classic designs.
10. Bimbi the Clown
Another Reddit-voted Squishmallow is Bimbi, the Clown Squishmallow, because the design may evoke mixed reactions, particularly among those uncomfortable with or fearing clowns.
As a result, this particular Squishmallow might not have universal appeal and could be considered less visually appealing by those opposed to clown imagery.
