NICI Red Apple

Hope you still remembered our recent entry about the NICI Cushion Apple. This green apple with worm is from the Jolly Lucy series.

Above: The Staring Contest - Gustav vs Green Apple. We are really just mocking the Harry Potter 7 poster haha

The thing about our NICI apple entry was this red apple cushion. This red apple was not mentioned anywhere on the official NICI website. Hence we were curious whether it was an imitation because it bears a real NICI tag.

This sparked the interest of NICI Germany as well, one of the very nice personal spoke with us and we sent some pictures of the red apple to them.

The red apple has the NICI Quality tag.

Green apple worm stares at the red apple!

NICI Germany has replied and here is what they said..

Quoting part of the email: 

We have checked the pictures and the product and can announce to you that this red cushion is an official NICI product. It was made by NICI Asia in a small edition about 600 pieces.

Thank you for the picture and your great support!! We in Germany do not have the overview about all the products our partners sometimes produce. Particularly those special editions.

So there you go. It is confirmed that not only the red apple is a genuine article, it is also a limited edition!

Now that we know the red apple is a limited edition NICI product. Everyone wants to take a bite of it!!

NICI Cushion Apple

This is the NICI cushion apple, the first NICI cushion of any type we ever bought.

This green NICI Cushion apple is from the Jolly Lucy series.

The most interesting thing about this green NICI cushion apple is..the worm in the apple can retract and..

extend to its fullest!! This has certainly be the most amusing thing that NICI ever created.

The NICI cushion apple is very detailed in its features, it has the stalk and leaf of an apple.

Our green NICI cushion apple worm has noticed something sneaking behind it all the time..its a RED APPLE!!

The red and green nici cushion apple looks exactly the same and they are both made of identical soft and smooth material.

Both the cushion apple bears the original NICI tag. The only difference is the red apple has no worm and it cost 3 times less than the Jolly Lucy green apple cushion.

The red cushion apple is not mentioned at all on NICI's website. Thus we cannot be sure if it is real or fake but both the NICI cushion apples are very comfortable to hug and cuddle.

*UPDATE* The red apple is original NICI product, please refer to this entry here -
