I expected the face to be more evenly round, but the chin sticks out farther than the rest of the head, and just below each eye it's slightly more convex and if you poke it you can feel that a seam ends there, adding to overall impression of a large chin instead of even roundness. The same slight seam bulge is true just below where the crest ends on the forehead, giving a tapering shape and overall making the face seem a bit triangular. The head isn't totally evenly round all the way either, and the gills are made of a rough felt material so take that into consideration if you need the entire plushie to be very soft. I also had to take a while to trim away the fluff around the facial features for them to be clearly distinct. After the initial unpacking, some bits of fluff were falling out here and there and i had to pull out some loose fluff that was bothering me, mostly towards the tail end.All of these are why I detracted one star from my review. Not serious enough to detract two stars, but if a very evenly round face is important to you you may be slightly bothered by these things. Otherwise, very fluffy and a good shape for squeezing, and i love playing with his little feets (which are 100% mobile, and very cute). The convex points of the chin are fun to poke in anyways. Overall I recommend.
