Updated July 08, 2025 By Ben Jessey:There are plenty of great fantasy-themed Squishmallows out there, and we put several of the best in this collection. However, some have since gone out of stock, so we’ve replaced them with other wonderful ones in this update.
Silvia The Purple Unicorn 16" Squishmallow
Rainbow Hair
Silvia is a purple unicorn with a beautiful rainbow mane, horn, and tail. She’s not the most switched-on unicorn, as her eyes are always closed.
Unicorns are some of the most iconic creatures in the fantasy genre. Silvia improves their already stellar reputation by being one of the most adorable unicorns ever. Her rainbow mane, horn, and tail look eye-catching.
The shade of purple for the rest of her body isn’t bad, either. As for her closed eyes, they aren’t unique to her, as plenty of Squishmallows have similarly designed eyes. Yet, it’s always a good look.
Naomi The Narwhal 16" Squishmallow
A Sparkle In Her Eye And A Horn On Her Head
Naomi is a purple Squishmallow with sparkling eyes and a slightly more rotund body than the average Squishmallow. She is a Narwhal, so she also has a horn on her head.
Squishmallows generally have a very specific shape. Yet, the designers have mixed things up when it comes to Naomi. She’s even chunkier and rounder than the standard ones.
This gives her an extra bit of originality, and the shape suits her. What also suits her are her eyes and coloring. The shade of purple is lovely, as are her sparkling eyes.
Squishmallows Legacy the Bunnycorn
A big smile on her face and a horn on her head
Cute, cuddly, and a rather unique mythological creature, Legacy the Bunnycorn takes two animals, one real, one from legends, and mashes them together into one plush toy. This stuffed toy is super soft and comes with big floppy ears to play with while you’re cuddling up for the evening.
One of the more unique fantasy creatures you can find from Squishmallows, Legacy the Bunnycorn, is an adorable bunny with a unicorn horn. Hence, a bunnycorn. She comes with pastel pink coloring, a white belly, big floppy ears to sell the bunny look, and a large rose-gold horn for that ‘-corn’ element.
Legacy’s story is pretty cute too. She has a butterfly garden that she spends her free time frolicking in and makes plenty of friends with all the butterflies that visit. She’s also a bit of a bookworm, spending her days lying in the grass and reading.She’s not one of the biggest Squishmallows around, but still a pretty big size, perfect for snuggling up with.
Squishmallows Dieric the Dragon
Tie-dye and scales make for a cute plush
Wings, scales, horns, and more come with this adorable Squishmallow. Dieric the Dragon is a perfect cuddle buddy, especially for those who find themselves lost on adventures. There are a lot of extras on this plush toy, like Dieric’s wings, horns, fins, and tuft of hair, giving you plenty of little bits to fiddle with.
If asked to name a fantasy monster, your first thought might be a terrible and mighty dragon. With a wingspan that rivals airplanes and rows of sword-like teeth with flames licking through them, dragons would, of course, make thebest Squishmallows plush animal.
Dieric the Dragon is an orange tie-dyed dragon with the cutest little wings, fins, and horns adorning their round head. Dieric might not be the most terrifying of dragons, but they can certainly show you a good time at the local art museum, according to their bio! The cutest part of Dieric is definitely the tuft of red hair on their head, giving you something to play with while you’re chillin’ with this orange dragon.
Squishmallows Magtus the Basilisk
Ssssssnakes love cuddlessssss
Snakes have nothing on the terror of the Basilisk, but when you’re cuddling with this Squishmallow, it trades in its more monstrous side for a cute one. Between the stubby little horns and the flickering forked tongue, there’s a lot of personality with this plush.
Do you love little knickknacks and collectibles? So does Magtus! This friendly little fellow gathers souvenirs from across the world, but he is a little overprotective of his stuff, getting testy if you just grab them without asking first.
As a basilisk, he might be a bit hard to distinguish from a regular snake, seeing how he’s nowhere near as scary as the serpent king is depicted in traditional folklore. Instead of eyes that can kill with a look, he’s got adorable little dots and a flicking forked tongue sticking out. Two little horns hang out on either side of a little purple ridge that extends down his back, tying Magtus together with some cute color combinations.
Squishmallows Ernest the Monster
A m-m-monster to cuddle!
No need to be afraid, this monster is the nicest Squishmallow you’ll ever meet. The unique coloring and special appearance makes it special among all the other plush toys on this list.
Quite possibly the epitome of fantasy in the Squishmallow universe comes Ernest the Monster, an orange amalgamation of different textures, colors, and designs in one plush buddy. Ernest has an orange body, a much deeper red fur across his stomach, yellow and purple horns, and a large, thick yellow unibrow.
As a monster, he kind of resembles a large piece of candy corn, which is perfect since this Squishmallow belongs to the Halloween Squad, joining all sorts of other spooky Squishmallows during the most haunted holiday around. Ernest comes in a variety of sizes, much like Rodina, so you can pick and choose which one is best for you.
Squishmallows Theotto the Cthulhu
No horror here, just cuties
Eldritch horror has never looked cuter than in Squishmallow form. Theotto has cute little wings, head fins, and darker scales across his head, and when combined with his rosy cheeks and cuttlefish smile, he’s one of the best fantasy Squishmallows around.
From the briny depths of the deep unknown comes Theotto the Cthulhu, a terror of the deep, an unspeakable horror that the mind can barely comprehend, and an adorable little cutie with the tiniest wings to better hug you. It’s hard to say whether or not Theotto is smiling in his plush, but it certainly feels like he is.
This teal plush Cthulhu may be an eldritch horror, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t super cuddly too. Theotto’s face kinda resembles a cuttlefish or an octopus, with rosy cheeks and tiny head fins on either side of a bunch of darker teal scales. Turning him around reveals a stubby tail and the same teal coloring of his body.
