I need to find deer that are about 4-6" tall, plastic, covered with that brown velveteen sort of flocking to make them fuzzy. It's for Christmas. It's very important. I think I'll be ordering a case. Anyone know where to find them?

The second link is closest to what I'm looking for, but I think I misspoke on the size - I think I need 6" - 8" tall deer.
What am I up to? Why would you think I'm up to anything?

Oh wait. You are one of those crazy axe-murdering internet people. Even if you told me what you are up to, you would probably be lying. 
I'll see what I can find. I did a google on "plastic flocked deer" and that's what I came up with.

The Christmastree Shop.
My coworker has one in her cubie. I see them at the store each time I go there and wonder who is buying them, and if they're all going to pranks.
Actually, I drove by a house once that had german shepards instead of lions on the fence around their house o_O and they had random deer along the fence too. Those people seem to be serious about them. |

The story: when we moved, the office manager made the administrative assistant throw out our holiday decorations. The poor forlorn, beaten-up but still cute flocked deer was on the top of the garbage heap and the AA and I both decided we would save the deer. So we took the deer and hid him in a potted plant. He looked very cute there, peering out from under a wide plant frond...
So when we got to the new office, we looked around... and the Office Manager had thrown out the plant, it never made the move to our new site! "But why that plant?!" I cried, and the heartless mean and nasty office manager said, "Because it was ugly. And someone stuck that old plastic deer in it." 
So the AA and I have informed the Office Manager that she should not have done that, and she is risking the wrath of the ghost of the velveteen reindeer. So I'm trying to come up with a plot. So far all I know is that I'll need a bunch of those deer...

I've seen the havoc this woman can work with large numbers of the same toy. The office manager should be very afraid.

I was afraid they were going to end up in our Christmas cards.
Yes, the poor Epi doll. It will never be the same!!!

How about these? They aren't clocked, but they are funny, in an odd sort of way: ) |

Ok, is it clocked, flocked, or velveteen? |
