A 'plushie' is a soft toy, cloth stuffed with straw, beans, cotton, etc... A doll can be made of (I quote from the wikipedia article)

# Bisque
# Bisqueloid
# Celluloid
# Clay
# Cloth (see also rag doll)
# Composition
# Corn husks
# Paper
# Plastic
# Polymer-Clay
# Porcelain
# Resin
# Rubber
# Vinyl
# Wax

and is usually depicting humans... In Neopets, of course, it is more common to find them depicting Neopets, as one would expect... I don't feel we need to try and invent a distinction between doll and plushie as a distinction already exists in Neopets: if it's called a doll, it's a doll, if it's called a plushie, it's a plushie... --Macbeth 10:07, 7 Aug 2006 (CDT)
