Jazwares, one of the world’s leading toy companies and creator of the global plush phenomenon Squishmallows, has released “Squish My School,” a special line of Collegiate Squishmallows dropping this month, just in time for the start of the fall semester.

Featuring 11 top universities from across the country, these college Squishmallows are a must-have for sports fans, future grads, and alumni alike.

Available on both Amazon and Jazwares.com, the 12-inch Collegiate Squishmallows retail for $19.99, making them the perfect companion for dorm rooms, tailgates, game-day watch parties, and fan caves alike. Fans can also bring their school spirit wherever they go with 3.5-inch Collegiate Squishmallows Clips ($9.99), designed to clip onto backpacks, water bottles, keychains, and more.

The games featured giveaways of exclusive Sawyer and Reza Squishmallows sporting Vanderbilt apparel, pregame activations, and Squishmallows-inspired game breaks and halftime entertainment.
