The Lion Guard from Disney Junior has been a huge success both in the programme and toy ranges. Being a spin off from the original The Lion King, it’s sure to appeal to little ones and something us adults can look back on fondly and share with our children as well as enjoy the new Lion Guard series. The new range of talking plush toys are fabulous for little ones and come in either Kion the lion or his best friend Bunga the badger. We received Kion to try out from Flair toys and he certainly didn’t disappoint!

Each character is approximately 30cm in size, made to an exceptionally high standard and looks great in both detail and stature. Being high quality means this little lion plush can not only stand on it’s own four legs but can also sit down on his hind legs independently looking really cute. A key feature on each character is the ‘Mark of the Guard’ badge on one of their fore legs which lights up as it is pressed. Each time you press the badge you’ll here one of four unique phrases and sounds.

So what did we think of the Kion plush toy?

The Kion plush from The Lion Guard is utterly adorable and hasn’t left my little boys arms since he received it. It goes to bed with him every night and he plays with it by day. It’s a great size, we love it’s quality and it’s a toy I’d definitely recommend to any young The Lion Guard fans. The detail on the face is perfect and realistic, it has a mouth that is open ready to roar and the whole body is super soft and perfect for cuddles.
