ThinkGeek has a phenomenal new product line just in time for the holidays: Plush Microbes!
There are a ton of them, but below are some of my favorites:
There are also a ton of owner submitted action shots, documenting the fun that can be had with your microbes!
Nature isn't cruel, just indifferent
Tomato scare!
Easter egg hunting is more fun with Salmonella!
Thanks once again to Javie

I've got the earache. I got it from a friend as present.
It's so funny to say, well, I've got earache and got it from a friend. And then show the plush thing.
My wife was delighted when I brought home Syphilis.
That's the cutest one.
Oh I LOVE these little guys! You know they have different cells from the body too? I got the neuron for my birthday, but I've always wanted an adipocyte.
WHO in their right mind wouldn't want the e. coli!!!! These are a hoot.
Those li'l cuties have actually been around for years. I keep meaning to get ebola. A friend gave me sleeping sickness. Definitely great gifts!
Oooo. Syphilis is cute. But herpes looks so cheerful. I can't decide!
What? No streptococcus plushie?
I'm so disappointed.
Oh there's definitely a streptococcus plushie- I have it on my desk at work! He even has a little knife and fork.
I also gave the Salmonella plushie to a coworker who got it and spent about a week in the hospital with it.
I like e.coli too. That was next on my list. I love these things.
very funny. thanks it is.
I love the eyes on Rabies: http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/plush/6708/images/2001/
Oh, I love Giant Microbes! I have the Ebola and krill ones myself. My friends at college and I love to throw the Ebola one at each other and say "Congratulations, you just caught Ebola!" Yeah, we're kind of odd. :P
I hope they make ones of organelles. I want a mitochondrion, dammit!
I'm totally buying some of the mini ones that come in petri dishes for some of my coworkers! Herpes is adorable!
Is it just me, or does E. coli bear a striking resemblance to the Flying Spaghetti Monster?
Oh, and "bookworm"?
I want the Rhinovirus!!! So cute. 'Course, I want them to DIE DIE DIE in real life.
The gifts that keep on giving...
creativity ;)
thanks..
