For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with Throwboy to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win a Mac, iPhone, or iPod pillow from Throwboy's Iconic Pillow Collection, which features soft plush versions of classic Apple products.

There are five pillows in the Iconic Pillow Collection, each of which mimics an original Apple product: the Apple II, released in 1977; the first Macintosh, released in 1984; the iMac G3, which was released in 1998; the iPod, released in 2001; and the ‌iPhone‌, released in 2007.

Throwboy started on Kickstarter a couple of years ago, and the campaign was successful enough that Throwboy has continued to offer Apple-themed plush pillows for Mac fans alongside other pillow options. The Iconic pillows are available for $39.99 each on the Throwboy website, with the entire collection able to be purchased for $189.99.

Each Iconic pillow features intricate embroidered detail to ensure that it looks like its hardware counterpart. We've reviewed the Iconic pillows in the past and have been impressed with their plushness, softness, and the realistic designs brought to life in plush form.

Design details include the iPod's iconic click wheel on the iPod pillow, a rainbow logo and floppy disk drive on the 1984 pillow, a disk drive, speakers, and paneling on the iMac G3 pillow, a Home button and speaker for the iPhone, and an embroidered keyboard and display for the Apple II.

All of the pillows are made from a plush material in the appropriate color for each device, so there's no mistaking what each one is meant to be. The Apple II and original Macintosh are a light beige color, the iPhone is black and gray, the iPod is white, and the iMac G3 is white and aqua.

Size wise, Throwboy's pillows are ideal for a couch or chair, and they also work on a shelf, so Apple cans can use them anywhere. Each pillow is soft, squishy, and comfortable to hold or lean against.

I see this as two ways:

1.) Perfect for a dorm room.

and/or

2.) For a tech nerd.
 
I think the bondi blue looks the best and most accurate. Probably my choice But I wouldn’t pay money for it. And I know they can’t use the Apple logo but it still sucks.
Should offer a late 90's Powerbook version with a built in heater
Sounds like my 2019 16” MBP with the i9 and 5500M. I even use a lap desk and I still have to take breaks or turn on a ceiling fan if able. Glad I’m done siring children because my nuts are roasted. I keep saying I’m holding out for second or third gen Apple Silicon but if it’s really cool then I’ll be tempted…
 
I would like to see a Cray Y-MP pillow I cut my teeth working on one Back in the days, still have some source code tapes :)
 
Neat..

Would you wanna sleep longer, not less ? It just shows howw much people "love" their Mac's
