What is a gonk?

A gonk is a type of soft toy characterized by its cylindrical shape and long, dangling legs. These toys are often stuffed with beans or pellets, giving them a floppy and slightly weighted feel. Gonks are typically brightly colored and have large eyes and a friendly expression.

The term "gonk" originally comes from the 1960s and 1970s in the UK, where it referred to a small, furry creature with a long nose and large feet. Over time, the word has evolved to encompass a wider range of playful, stuffed toys with similar characteristics.

Gonks are popular among children and collectors alike, and can be found in various sizes and designs. They are often used as decorative items or as comforting companions for kids. Some people also believe that gonks bring good luck and positive energy into the home.
