Spec me a Teddy Bear!

I've got a bear from the Build a Bear workshop in New York.

Has a heart and he laughs when you squeeze his paw ;-)
 
Toy shop in London = Hamleys no question.

It's almost a day out, go together and play with EVERYTHING!

Steiff bears are lovely but they're a classic bear, quite solid and not very cuddly. Lovely things though, I have one that growls :)

I used to love Bear Factory / Build a Bear - but they've moved away from the more classic looking teddies into bears with too-cute smiles, paw-prints and things. Boo.
 
Awesome, Hamleys first stop, just so I can buy myself a toy as well!

Just got to face what i'm guessing is gonna be a massive choice of bears to choose from for the ladyfriend :-z
 
Bourbon looks very cute :)

Of the Hamleys bears I think Oatmeal and Flapjack look very sweet too - I prefer ones without obvious smiles because then you can imagine any expression onto them instead of seeing a blank grin staring back. Call me weird, if you like...

Strangely i was thinking along the same lines (about which bears, not about the expression thing :-\ ) - basically wanna go for something she can give a good squeeze!
 
I seem to remember Steiff are the ones that pop up on the Antiques Roadshow now and then and are worth like £10k or something, I think. :p :)
 
Screw that! I want one that will do for replacing me when she needs a 'cuddly sleep'

:p

they aren't all stuffy things to be put on a shelf and looked at!
my hubby (when we were dating and I had to spend a lot of time away from him) bought me one - they even do baby friendly teddies, and they are the softest / cuddliest of things!!

Ah see, now you've thrown a right spanner in the works! There should be documented criteria for womens teddy bear requirements
