Very soft & cute. My baby girl loves to "suck" (put in her mouth) on all the limbs, ears, trunk and tail for comfort

Sixteen reviews of an elephant, and not a one says anything about size. Amazon's descriptionssays its "18" H. I'm sorry, but measuring his height while he's seated (as his designers obviously intended, yields a compact 7". By pulling, and even slightly stretching him from the tip of his trunk to his rear feet, another 5 inches can be coaxed from him. So consider him 7" or, if you prefer, 12" (providing you steamroller him into a flattened, distorted shape), but if you're looking for something closer to the the size of the true king of the beasts, look elsewhere and be prepared to spend more.
It's puzzling that several reviewers claim he looks nothing like his picture (or that he's a slightly faded color, etc.). My Ty Winks Elephant, as delivered on Good Friday, is absolutely identical with his picture. Those who register great disappointment on this account either received the wrong order from Amazon or purchased from a less responsible seller. In any case, if you buy Winks from Amazon and find him different from the pictured one, Amazon will be happy to refund your costs, including postage from and to.
The same might apply in my case because of Amazon's false size specification (probably a typo). But as currently priced, I think he's fairly valued. And he's twice the size of the Ty miniatures going for five bucks. Moreover, the manufacturer can usually be counted on to make good, durable products, and Winks appears to be no exception. The eyes are small, black, securely anchored droplets. If I have any disappointment, it's that while writing this review I've been watching those opaque little eyes carefully, and neither one has winked. Still, I much prefer this to the animal I initially selected, then promptly removed from my cart upon discovering that it comes with a "bonus" in the form of a "virtual" twin on the internet, available to the lucky tot who remembers the password. That's one expendable word as well as one place my grandkids (or this kid) don't need to know more about. The thought that the website expenses were reflected, at least in part, in the product's cost was in itself sufficient to make Winks a highly preferable alternative.

Well-loved for over 2 years now

We bought this elephant for our daughter when she was 1 year old, she still favors it over any toy, stuffed or otherwise. It's name has changed as she has grown older, but she still insists on sleeping with it. We have washed it at least 50 times and dried it in the dryer on low heat each time, and the stitching has help up amazingly well. It is a little less plump and more faded now, but that is bound to happen. We recently bought an emergency back-up, and shortly thereafter lost the original at airport security. So we are glad we got the back-up. She can tell the difference from the original, but she still loves it. Very cute, very soft. Great size for stashing in the diaper bag.

Travel Companion Extraordinaire!

I bought this guy with my Twin Sister in 2003. He came with me to University, my first apartment, and back home to my parent's house, in one piece. Olie (my name for him) is still cuddly and soft, even with his being stuffed in my purse, backpack, travel bags and coat pocket numerous times over the years.
Little cousins love him, and so do I!
He balances on your head nicely. ;)
I'd recommend this little guy to anyone! He's awesome.
I've since bought a few other critters from the same line, and they're all awesome, but none are as lovely as my little Oliphant, Winks!
