With the newest update to Kirby Star Allies came Gooey from Dreamland 3. Who couldn’t love such a squishy blue blob with a long tongue? My brother was very excited with this update so I decided to crochet him his favorite Dream Character. I used some blue that I had lying around and then I bought some Sassy Bear Comic round eyes just for Gooey. He couldn’t be looking better!
Since Marx was nearly done at the time of making Gooey, I decided to make Gooey be to scale. I looked at reference images to figure out the size of Gooey compared to Marx and I got nice results. Here is what I found as well as a reference picture that I drew.

Size chart of gooey compared to Marx. Note: Marx’s legs are not taken account because Marx never stands with both feet completely on the ground (or it is very rare).

1. Gooey is the height of Marx plus the area where Marx’s hat separates (if Marx’s legs not taken into account)
2. Gooey is about 1.25x wider than Marx’s body
3. The gap between Gooey’s eyes is larger than the gap between Marx’s eyes
4. Marx has larger eyes than Marx which span from one Gooey eye to the inner edge of Gooey’s other eye
5. It takes more than 2 of Marx’s mouths to equal a Gooey mouth
6. Marx’s ball is less than Gooey’s width spanning from one side of Gooey to the outside of the opposite eye
7. Marx’s ball is slightly wider than Marx’s body
8. Marx’s ball is about the same height as Gooey
9. Marx’s ball is twice the size of the area from Marx’s bottom hat rim to the start of Marx’s legs
10. Both of Marx’s eyes and the gap between them are equal to 1.25 of the ball’s width
