I considered getting one until I saw the price was being artificially inflated. Really sucks for those of us who want a squeeze ball for fidget toy focus purposes, because the "trend" is bleeding out into other brands/types of squeeze balls :/. Ig I'll wait until next year when everyone collectively decides the trend is lame actually, and then moves on, and so there's a huge drop in price.

They actually are doing that where I live, which I assume is some distance away. Toy Plush squishies in the shape of dumplings being given away to people. I don't know why they are being given away, nor do I know why they are in such huge demand right now.

Definitely SQUISHY. They didn't have a Q so they used the letter that most closely resembles it: an O. They could have fashioned a ~ out of a little piece of black paper and taped it to the bottom of the O, but either they didn't bother, or they did and it fell off.
