SkinnyMarie [1] shared these fun Plush Animal Speakers [2] with me, saying that they were given to her as a gag gift because she have been infatuated by penguins since she was five.

While we can all agree that novelty speakers shaped like cupcakes [2] or tiny wooden cubes [2] probably don't boost the sound power of more serious speakers, these are fun desktop accessories. They are currently on sale for $16 and feature a plug-and-play design that works with laptops, iPod, CD or MP3 players.
