Sure enough, the FreeBSDMall has: FreeBSD Daemon Doll (Large) - ($39.95) Chuck the daemon is the cheerful mascot of the FreeBSD operating system. Now you can have your very own plushy doll! Includes a pitchfork made of wood and felt. About 12 inches tall. on the http://www.freebsdmall.com/promotional/ page. By the way, does anyone know if McKusick's copyright have anything to do with the advent of the new (silly) mascots?
