New Year, New Cuddles: Unveiling the New 2026 Aurora Plush Collections
Discover Aurora's New Collections!
Pop the confetti and get those party horns ready! As we wave a fond farewell to 2025, the team here at Aurora is absolutely buzzing with excitement to welcome 2026. A new year represents a fresh start, a blank page in your diary, and most importantly for us plush enthusiasts: a brand-new reason to expand our cuddle collections!
At the start of every year, we pull back the curtain on our latest plush concepts, and we believe 2026 is shaping up to be another GREAT year. Whether you are a dedicated collector with shelves full of friends or someone looking for that one perfect snuggle buddy, this year’s lineup has something special just for you.
We have been busy in the workshop dreaming up characters that spark joy, encourage relaxation, and invite a little bit of magic into your daily life. From adorably plump pals designed for maximum lounging to wearable friends that take flight with you, we can’t wait to introduce you to the new crew.
Are you ready to meet your new obsessions? Let’s jump right in and explore the three spectacular new collections launching this year!
It's Time to Shake Your Rump with the Rumplers™ Collection!
Let’s be honest: after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, don’t we all just want to flop down and relax? Enter the Rumplers Collection. We have designed these cuties with one goal in mind: maximum silly-cute coziness.
Rumplers are adorably plump plush animals that have mastered the art of the "flop." With an endearing, laid-back pose, they look exactly how we feel on a lazy Sunday afternoon. But the magic really lies in the feel. We’ve utilized a mix of ultra-plush textures that blend smooth and fuzzy materials. The result? A tactile experience that is soothing, satisfying, and impossible to put down.
Their signature feature is their oversized rumps (hence the name!), which gives them an undeniable charm and helps them sit perfectly content wherever you place them. They are heavy enough to feel substantial in your arms but soft enough to squash into a hug.
Meet the Chill Crew
While the whole collection is delightful, there are two stars we think you’re going to fall in love with immediately:
Arturo Axolotl™
Say hello to the chillest artist in the cuddle crew! Everyone’s favorite aquatic friend gets the Rumpler treatment, and the result is pure, squishy magic. With his plump, rounded body and soft pink plush, Arturo captures the whimsical nature of the axolotl but with extra smoosh. His fuzzy gills and smooth body create a sensory delight, while his relaxed pose says, "No worries, just vibes." Whether he’s daydreaming about his next masterpiece or just lounging on your desk, this artsy axolotl is the perfect companion to remind you to take a deep breath during a busy workday.
Ori Opossum™
This cheerful snacker loves to eat, lounge, and repeat, which might explain how his rump got so delightfully round. With soft gray fur, pink paws, and a perfectly plump body crafted from Aurora’s signature ultra-soft blend of fuzzy and velvety fabrics, Ori is made for maximum comfort and cuddly charm, delivering the cozy satisfaction of a post-snack nap every time. With his oversized rump and blissful expression, Ori is a sweet reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is enjoy your favorite treats and take it easy.
Ready to Relax?
If your 2026 resolution involves more self-care and downtime, you need a Rumpler by your side. These plushies are made to melt your heart and your stress away.

The Lil Dreamers™ Collection: Eyes on the Stars
If Rumplers are about grounding yourself in comfort, the Lil Dreamers collection is all about looking up and dreaming. Step into a world where every cuddle inspires imagination!
These precious plush friends are instantly recognizable by their wide, wonder-filled eyes and soft upward gaze. They aren’t just looking at you; they are looking toward the future, the sky, and the endless possibilities of your dreams. We wanted to capture that specific feeling of childhood curiosity... the belief that magic is real and anything is possible.
Crafted with our signature quality, Lil Dreamers feature irresistibly soft textures that make them perfect for quiet moments. They are the ideal companions for storytime snuggles or keeping you company while you drift off to sleep. They serve as gentle reminders to keep reaching for your dreams, no matter how big or small they might seem.
Dream Big with These New Friends
Every Lil Dreamer has a personality that shines through, but here are two that have captured our hearts completely.
Cosmo Pig™
Who says pigs can’t fly? Cosmo looks like he’s ready to soar straight to the moon. With a hopeful expression and the softest pink plush, Cosmo is a symbol of believing in the impossible. He is perfect for anyone who needs a little encouragement to chase a big goal this year.
Nova Chicken™
Nova brings a touch of farmhouse charm mixed with celestial wonder. This isn't your average barnyard bird; Nova is gazing skyward, spotting constellations and making wishes. The detailed stitching and fluffy texture make Nova a unique addition to any collection, proving that inspiration can be found in the most unexpected places.
Spark Your Imagination
Let your imagination take flight with these adorable dreamers by your side. Whether for yourself or as a gift for a little one with big ideas, Lil Dreamers are symbols of hope and kindness.

The Wrist Fliers™ Collection: Magic You Can Wear
Why leave your plush friends at home when they can come along for the ride? Take flight with Wrist Fliers, the innovative winged companions that go wherever you go!
We wanted to bridge the gap between fashion, play, and plush collecting. Each Wrist Flier features a comfortable, elasticized wristband that keeps your winged pal secure, whether you are running around the playground, typing at your computer, or heading to a convention.
The detail on these is truly stunning. We use vivid, high-quality prints to capture the intricate patterns of real butterfly and insect wings. From lifelike designs to imaginative fantasy hues, these plush pals turn your everyday outfit into something magical. They are soft, wearable, and absolutely full of character.
Wear Your Wings
These are going to be the ultimate accessory for 2026. Here are two distinct styles to get your collection started.
Monarch Butterfly
Classic, vibrant, and beautiful. The Monarch Wrist Flier features the iconic orange and black pattern that nature lovers adore. It looks incredible perched on your wrist, adding a splash of color to any ensemble. It’s like having a real butterfly land on you and decide to stay for a while!
Blush Butterfly
For those who prefer a softer aesthetic, the Blush Butterfly offers imaginative fantasy hues in pastel pinks and purples. It’s whimsical, dreamy, and adds a fairy-tale touch to your day. It’s the perfect accessory for anyone who wants to show off their softer side.
Let Your Personality Take Wing
Wrap one around your wrist and let your personality shine! These aren't just toys; they are style statements.
