They are from the game in '99. They had velcro in the center and all around the outside edge. They were filled with styrophome packing peanuts.

Here is a pic

Picture this, very slick fabric, cut into a round shape. filled with packing peanuts.

or, picture this:

Notice how the shape of each one was different. they were very .. well.... floppy. (one in the picture was folded in half)

One of the harder objects to manipulate that first has dreamed up.

We won an award for our pickup mechanism. (conveyer-belt pickup system, picked them up everytime)

.....how they came up with the name floppy (other than the obvious)...how they dealt with it having the same name as a "floppy" disk...and what other names they came up with.

When I'm sleepy I grab my floppies to use as pillows, they are so great and comfy

Yeah I was just thinking that they look like they would make good pillows.
