Frequently Asked Questions – Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy

Can the Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy be washed in the washing machine?

Yes, the Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy can be washed in the washing machine without any problems. To do this, always place the soft toy in a fine-mesh laundry bag or a pillowcase to protect the embroidered facial features, the quills and the white chest fur from rubbing against the drum. Wash the soft toy on a delicate or woollens cycle at a maximum of 30 °C using a mild liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as this can cause the synthetic micro-plush fibres to clump together and make the black fur look matt.

From what age is the Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy suitable for children?

The Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy has an official age recommendation of 36 months (3 years) and above. As all details, such as the eyes, mouth and shoe patterns, are high-quality embroidery and no swallowable plastic eyes or hard accessories have been used, there is no risk of choking on small parts, even during vigorous play.

What is the best way to dry the Shadow soft toy without the spines and shoes losing their shape?

After washing, the soft toy should always be left to dry in the fresh air on a clothes horse. You must avoid using a tumble dryer or a hot hairdryer at all costs. The high temperatures can melt the fine polyester microfibres of the fur or cause the synthetic wadding filling to harden. If you carefully reshape the spines, chest fur and legs with your fingers whilst they are still damp, Shadow will retain his perfectly upright silhouette once dry.

What advantages does the 28 cm version of Shadow offer over smaller keyrings or giant soft toys?

The 28 cm size is considered the golden mean in the world of gaming merchandise. It offers sufficient surface area to realistically render fine details such as the golden armbands, the hover shoes and the multicoloured spines. At the same time, the 28 cm version is handy enough for children’s hands and doesn’t take up too much space on a desk, gaming setup or collector’s shelf.

Is the Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy suitable for people with allergies?

Yes, the soft toy is extremely hygienic and allergy-friendly. The outer material, made from 100% dense short-pile polyester, and the polypropylene (PP cotton) filling provide no breeding ground for dust mites or pollen. Furthermore, the smooth short-pile plush attracts significantly less dust than long-pile faux fur and can be easily cleaned or wiped with a damp cloth on a regular basis.

How do you remove dust mites from a soft toy without washing it at 60 °C?

As high washing temperatures above 40 °C can damage the soft toy’s fibres, the cold method is recommended: place the dry Wiztex Hedgehog Collection Shadow Black 28 cm soft toy in an airtight freezer bag and put it in the freezer for 24 to 48 hours at a temperature of at least -18 °C. The cold reliably kills mites. Afterwards, allow the soft toy to warm up to room temperature and gently brush off any dead particles with a soft clothes brush.

Why does the character Shadow differ so greatly from Sonic in terms of colour and appearance?

Shadow the Hedgehog was created in the video games as the ‘ultimate being’ and deliberately stands out from the blue main character thanks to his jet-black fur, the red accent stripes on his spines and his characteristic white chest fur. He also wears special hover shoes instead of normal trainers. The Wiztex soft toy captures precisely these striking differences in great detail.

How can you tell if a soft toy has been tested for harmful substances and is safe?

A safe soft toy bears the CE mark and complies with the requirements of the EU toy standard EN 71. This guarantees that the product can withstand mechanical tensile tests on its seams, is made from flame-retardant materials and does not release any harmful chemicals. Make sure that the product is in mint condition and does not have a pungent chemical smell.
