how long is it? they post two different measurements for it.

I found that it measures right around 10" Long/High

Can I wash this koala in the washing machine?

DO NOT WASH THIS STUFFED ANIMAL IN THE MACHINE ! lol i had one quite like it i took every where from the time i was 2 -10 and i got sick one night and threw up all over it and it took me thirty years of very expensive therapy to block out his little face rising up from the water totally ruined . in fact i always suggest getting two same stuffed animals if your kid really loves it while you can still get one, as soon as you see its their favorite. then you stash one away and if anything, ever happens to the first one like they lose it or puke on it, then you have a perfect match for a spare hidden away so their little Sweet Pea can aloways come home nice and fresh after his " special spa day" because he was just on vacation, not actually left for lost in nyc. mine hasnt arrived yet so i cant be specific but once the fluff gets waterlogged its rarely the same and looks for evermore like a zombie! didnt any of you people see Pet Cemetery? better to toss oout number one and break out his rested and rejuvenated version of his old self lol

Do the arms move easily (i.e. Can you spread them for a "hug"), or are they stuck in front like the picture?

No, they are not stuck in front although they're stitched in a way that does keep them there. Yes, you can spread them for a hug which we do often with this little guy. He's soft and cuddly.
