Altered CarbonNOW AN EXCITING NEW SERIES FROM NETFLIX The shell that blew a hole in his chest was only the beginning in this "tour de force of genre bending, a brilliantly realized exercise in science fiction."

While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself.

NOW AN EXCITING NEW SERIES FROM NETFLIX - The shell that blew a hole in his chest was only the beginning in this "tour de force of genre-bending, a brilliantly realized exercise in science fiction."--The New York Times Book Review

In the twenty-fifth century, humankind has spread throughout the galaxy, monitored by the watchful eye of the U.N. While divisions in race, religion, and class still exist, advances in technology have redefined life itself. Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person's consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or "sleeve") making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen.

Ex-U.N. envoy Takeshi Kovacs has been killed before, but his last death was particularly painful. Dispatched one hundred eighty light-years from home, re-sleeved into a body in Bay City (formerly San Francisco, now with a rusted, dilapidated Golden Gate Bridge), Kovacs is thrown into the dark heart of a shady, far-reaching conspiracy that is vicious even by the standards of a society that treats "existence" as something that can be bought and sold.

“Indestructible”? Not even close.
Color: Carrot Orange, Color: Carrot Orange
I bought this because it was advertised for large aggressive chewers and claimed to be indestructible. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from the truth. My dog destroyed this toy in about two minutes. Seriously. It took me longer to get it out of the Amazon packaging and the manufacturer’s box than it did for my dog to rip it open. Once he got going, the seams popped and stuffing was everywhere. Then I got the joy of cleaning up the mess, which took longer than the toy lasted. If your dog is actually a strong chewer, this toy probably won’t survive very long. I wish I could recommend it, but honestly it just didn’t hold up at all. Save your money and keep looking

UPDATE TO MY REVIEW / It's NOT indestructible!
Color: Carrot Orange
UPDATE: I stand by my review for the original "Plush Toy". BUT ... the seller contacted me and offered to help, because they don't want their customers to be unhappy with their products. I described the problem, and they said they'd contact their supplier to correct things. AND ... they offered to send another dog toy that actually was indestructible. My dog, a Border Collie - Retriever mix, loved the replacement they sent, an Orange Peanut. (He even took it to bed the first night.) This was much appreciated. But what I most appreciated was their Customer Service and Care. They don't just say they want their customers to be happy, they actually demonstrate it by their actions. This type of care is rare these days, and I commend them for it. Notice I've changed my rating from 1-star to 5-stars, this is in recognition of their Customer Service. To me, this type of care is more important than any product. So I now fully endorse this seller. If you have an issue with a product, just contact them (through Amazon), and they will do their utmost to make things right, and to make sure you're happy. ****************************************** I bought this because it was described as "Dog Plush Toy for Large Aggressive Chewers, Indestructible Dog Squeaky Toy" (from their listing on Amazon). My dog is a Golden Retriever mix, and he's only a "medium size aggressive chewer". And yet, this toy lasted 10 minutes at the most. Very disappointing ... save yourself a "dog toy heartbreak".

Not indestructible however not terrible.
Color: Shocking Pink
Not indestructible however not terrible. My strong chewer had quickly devoured the plush stomach and eaten the squeaker. But the rope parts and rough face pieces are holding up well. Not a disaster.

Good toy but not indestructible
Color: Royal Blue
The toy is nice, but my dog killed it in about 30 minutes. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because it says indestructible Toy in the description. Other than that it is a nice chew toy.

Dog loves it. So 5 starts
Color: Carrot Orange
A great value toy that is very hard to destroy. Our dog usually runs through softer toys and this one has lasted a long time. Its not chewable like a plushy but harder fabric that doesn't rip apart. The dogs are having a blast with it. And so are we. The colors fit the description. The size was idk 2ft ish. It met all expectations. I wouldn't expect to need more than one of them unless your dog is a super destroyer.
