Pluto does not arrive alone
Celestial Buddies names the product Pluto & Charon Buddy. The maker lists two characters, approximately five and four inches high when seated, with magnets inside pouches between their shells and stuffing so they can interact. The pair is the selection reason: someone who likes the relationship between a world and its companion receives both identities, rather than a single round character with an unrelated accessory added later.
Keep the astronomy and the character separate
NASA identifies Pluto as a dwarf planet and Charon as the largest of its five known moons. That gives the names a real relationship worth talking about. It does not make the plush heights a scale model of their diameters or the magnets a demonstration of orbital mechanics. A character pair can be an inviting reminder of the actual system while a separate diagram answers a scientific scale question.
Choose the pair for the interaction
This direction fits someone who wants both characters and enjoys their physical pairing. If the brief is a single magnet-free plush, the documented product answers a different request. Let that actual use determine the choice instead of assuming every astronomy-themed toy serves the same purpose. A gift note can name Charon as well as Pluto, making the companion part of the thought behind the object.
