Giantmicrobes, stylized as GIANTmicrobes, is a toy company based in Stamford, Connecticut, founded by Drew Oliver. Giantmicrobes manufactures designer plush stuffed toys and accessories resembling microbes, vaccines, organs, and other microscopic things like cells, antibodies, and chemicals.
Appearance
The appearance of each 5-7 inch long toy is based on electron micrographs of the real microbe (not necessarily correctly coloured), thus the toys represent an approximate million-fold magnification of the actual organisms in many cases, and can serve as educational toys or mascots for situations such as university open days.
