Hi! Just wondering where you got your Max plushie. I’d love to know :D
Oh yeah ofc! He’s the official one from Uncute, he was a limited run for a while but I think he’s still available now? Here’s the link: https://www.uncute.com/products/sam-and-max-stuffed-toy
He’s a lil pricey, like $40 USD plus shipping, but I love him dearly hjhjdhshshs. Oh but y’all should know, since he’s so damn expensive, @trinkerichi made a really great pattern for a Max plushie a while back that you make from a fluffy pair of socks lol! It’s fantastic, here’s that for anybody who might be interested: https://www.tumblr.com/trinkerichi/655113755182628864/cant-buy-a-max-plush-get-some-fuzzy-socks-and
But yeah I love my uncute Max he’s a good lil guy. He does collect bits of fluff like no tomorrow though and it’s real difficult to get them all out of his fur, so he ends up discoloring pretty quickly. That wouldn’t be a problem if you just wanted to display him ofc but I gotta snuggle him lmaooo. Also here’s him tucked in at a hotel bc he’s my little travel buddy
Every time I think of Human!Sam I imagine him having peyos instead of his flappy dog ears. And then Human!Max has a pair of very clean bunny ears that he found in a dumpster as a kid and fell in love a 2nd time (the 1st time was with violence, the 3rd time with his gun, and the 4th time with Sam). The bunny ears are meticulously cleaned and cared for, and they'd be the only thing on Max that he'd willingly keep such high maintenance on if it weren't for Sam forcing him to take care of himself as well as the bunny ears.
"Peyos" (or "Pe'ye" if it's singular) are uncut/unshaven sideburns, it's a thing done by a lot of Orthadox Jewish men and boys because one of the rules of the Torah that they uphold to is to "never shave the sides of their head". Most people wear them curled, and the literal translation of "Pe'ye" is "corner/side/edge".
