I loved my Teddy. Yes, he was creepy but nowhere near as creep as the Charlie McCarthy replica perched at the end of my bed that I woke up to one horrible Christmas morning.
One kid hits the other over the head with Teddy and splits his head open. We rush to the ER for stitches. The doctor asks how this happened and my son says "Teddy Ruxpin did it."
LOL! My first thought was it was creepy as hell too..
Hey Sas I had tons of those Jolly Monkey's and I actually loved them. They were the mascot for my company I owned at the young age of 22-29. They are no longer mfg but they hold a special place in my heart.
I adored Teddy Ruxpin. My brother and I each got one for Christmas. I was seven, but he was only three. I have no doubt that T.R. is partly responsible for my brother reading at a fifth grade level when he was in first. It was an awesome learning tool.
Ruxpin was creepy. RIP
ReplyDeleteTeddy Ruxpin was the work of the devil. NEXT!
ReplyDeleteHe was no Monchichi.
ReplyDeleteCreepy teddy bears are tough, y'all!
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't as creepy as the monkey that played the cymbals, though.
ReplyDeleteAwww now I love teddy ruxpin!! He was adorable. Monkeys playing cymbals and the smurfs creeped me out. But teddy was golden.
ReplyDeleteRIP

ReplyDeleteDamn @Oopsy! I wouldn't have been able to sleep for days.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought Teddy was adorable! I didn't have one, though, because I was too old for a talking teddy bear by then.
ReplyDeleteTeddy Ruxpin was somewhat adorable. Furby was the devil's spawn.
ReplyDeleteFreaking weird toy.
ReplyDeleteI have fond memories of tossing cases of Teddy Ruxpin down the stairs when I worked at Toys R Us.

Wanton is cracking me up!
My sister and I used to blame Teddy Ruxpin for EVERYTHING.
ReplyDeleteFun fact: Shortly after his debut, Teddy Ruxpin was the "Official Spokesbear for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children" in 1985.
RIP, Teddy's pops.
