Tyson’s nephew, James, collects stuffed toys.
His bedroom is overflowing with them, but he takes good care of each of them and gives them all names that he makes sure to remember.
His favourite ten are as follows, with loosely correct scaling:
- Lion - Kevin
Gift from his uncle Ty when they visited the London Zoo. - Kangaroo - Joey
One of the toys that Jethro and Rosie bought before James was born. - Blue Bunny - Bubbles

Within Redemption!Verse, James’ favourite stuffed toys are the same as the main!universe, but Tyson now keeps the crow plush that James gave him - called Shadow - on his person at all times.
Outside of Shadow, there are a few other stuffed toys kept in Tyson’s apartment. In his walk-in cupboard/panic room, there is the teddy bear that used to belong to Tyson’s mother and three stuffed toys kept on the shelves in the living roomfor Tyson’s dogs: a teddy bear for Bobby, a lion for Lily, and a Sackboy plush that they share.
Until was twelve and his father forced him to throw it away, Tyson’s treasured stuffed toy was a Grumpy Bear plush. Jethro won the toy at a school raffle when Tyson was six and gave it to his little brother.
