Replacing the intergalactic towel, the Weight Companion Cube has quickly become a gamer’s best friend. Who knew that a box with pink hearts on it could evoke such emotion in gamers? Now Valve is capitalizing on this strange endearment by offering two types of plush Weighted Companion Cubes, a regular plush item and a pair of 'fuzzy dice'. These items are coming soon to the Valve Store, just be sure not to incinerate these ones.

Keep watch here at the Valve Store. You too can purchase your very own Official Weighted Companion Cube, the latest game 'hero' to appear from Portal , a single-player first-person action/puzzle video game developed by Valve. As part of this game you are tasked with the care of a Weighted Companion Cube, ensuring its safe passage through many puzzles and traps, only, in the end to be forced to .... well I won't spoil the surprise.

Needless to say, fans of portal will most likely purchase this item en masse this holiday season. I look forward to replacing my origami Companion Cube with a plush one!
