My Pet Monster burst onto the scene in 1986 as a plush toy with a twist—he had blue fur, orange horns, and wore plastic breakaway handcuffs. Unlike most cuddly toys, My Pet Monster was designed to appeal to the boy market, giving them their own monstrous best friend. The toy's popularity was bigger than expected, leading to an animated series and a radical live-action film. Kids and even adults loved that the toy could be "chained up" and then "break free," tapping into imagination and plenty of mischief. Despite being out of regular production for years, My Pet Monster remains a cult favorite, but he is retiring for San Diego Comic Con 2025!

That is right, My Pet Monster is back as The Loyal Subject continues to capture the magic and chaos of the 80s by bringing back another legendary franchise. A limited edition 14" plush of this lovable monster is on the way and features that classic blue fur, three horns, and yes, the handcuffs are included. The Loyal Subjects even included retro packaging for this release, only adding to its impressive convention exclusive debut. Collectors will be able to snag up a My Pet Monster from July 24–27 at The Loyal Subjects Booth #2544, as well as pre-order one online for $50.
