'Friends' Fans Can Now Buy Their Very Own Hugsy The Penguin

Of all the standout stars of Friends - Janice, Gunther, Fun Bobby, the Holiday Armadillo, Jennifer Aniston's nipples... - there's arguably none more iconic than Hugsy, the stuffed penguin toy that Joey loves to pieces.

(ARGUABLY. We said 'arguably'.)

While Hugsy makes cameo appearances throughout the hit sitcom - and even in spin-off series Joey, but we don't talk about that show - his true moment comes when Rachel moves in with Joey and her daughter becomes attached to his bedtime penguin pal.

Joey tries to buy baby Emma a new Hugsy so that he can reclaim the original, but obviously that's a no-go and Emma kicks off.

He even tries to steal back the original, prompting Rachel to ask how Joey can steal Hugsy from a child - to which Joey hits back: "How do you think I got him in the first place?"

Well, the day is finally here - you can now buy your very own Hugsy the penguin and live out your best life in true Friends style.

AliExpress.com

AliExpress now has the penguins available to purchase, and the best news is that you can pick one up for an even cheaper price than usual.

The penguins normally retail for $36.69 (£28) a pop, but there's a cool 16 percent off them at the moment, meaning you can get yourself your very own bedtime buddy for just $30.82 (£23).

It gets even better, as they offer worldwide shipping, so you can grab yourself a Hugsy even if you're outside of the U.S.

Standing at 18" tall, the Hugsy plushes seem to be a hit with buyers, with top reviews across the board.

No Friends fan should be without their own version of Joey and Emma's favourite penguin, so we suggest you get yours while you can.

If Hugsy isn't quite what you're looking for, you can also decorate your home with some other Friends-inspired pieces, like this five-star rated door peephole from Etsy seller, Letrasdecorativas.

This 100 percent handmade decorative frame will set you back less than £20 ($26, before shipping) and comes ready to mount with no need for any laborious DIY projects.

Or, for something a little more motivational, you can also buy hilarious throw pillows featuring quotes from the show, available from Etsy seller CleverlyInspire.

Again, shipping is available outside of the US.

It doesn't matter that Friends is over - with lots of goodies like these available online, you can soon get your home looking as stylish and chic as Monica and Rachel's apartment. Unless you want it to look more like Chandler and Joey's, which is where Hugsy comes in...
