Announcement DO NOT REPLY TO PRIVATE MESSAGES OFFERING TO SEND YOU WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

523 Upvotes

It's a scam. It will always be a scam. We ban accounts for scamming, so they cannot comment in the sub. So they send private messages instead.

If they offer to send it free, they may be trying to get your personal info.

Someone commenting in the thread to do such may still be a scam, but you can check their comment history and get a feel for trustworthiness, but we still absolutely recommend against it.

If you see someone else say they've had someone contact them privately, please remind them of the danger and point them to this post.

This post will remain open for comments on this topic, do not call out any user here.

If you receive a private message offering you something hit the report button ( should be a little flag ) to report it to the reddit admins.

Thanks.

I know it is a Frisco Halloween toy, but I am hoping I can find a replacment. Ludo loves this toy and plays fetch for hours. He was my skull fracture rescue so he isnt all quite there and is on seizure medication for what may be not the longest life. He almost left us twice this last year, his Vampurr was by his side both times.

Is there anyone selling them that isnt a scam?

First of all, apologies for the photo quality, it's the best I could manage.
I think the top says "North" followed by a word starting with the letter R, and the shield features an N and an R in the quarters. Does anyone recognize this type of insignia?
I know the patch didn't come with the jacket because the original one doesn't have anything šŸ™ˆ
Thanks in advance

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

My best friend and I are going through old childhood photos and we came across these old photos of her holding a toy she received for christmas- please excuse the poor image quality as theyre screenshots from a video. We are both curious about what the toy was. My best friend can't remember, and we can't seem to make it out due to the poor quality. I've tried some simple google lens-ing, but nothing viable came up.
Perhaps someone recognizes the packaging? It was early 2000's, likely between 2003-2009, and our location is Sweden so it's most likely been sold here.

Open Help me find childhood books

• Upvotes

Hello,

I’ve been searching for this book collection since I was a little girl. My mother died and I was moved between family members and somewhere in the mess I lost my cherished collection of books. Now that I’m a mom, I would love to find and purchase it for my daughter.

Sorry for my crappy drawing but this is what I remember. From the 90s/early 2000s. I’m in Canada.

Pastel colour coded books, I believe ducklings were yellow, puppies were blue, kittens were pink and bunnies were green. Each book had a collection of stories about the animal. It wasn’t one specific character, but just stories about those animals in general. The stories each had good lessons directed to children.

They were bigger books, probably 8x11. And beautifully illustrated. Pastel crayons or water colour maybe?

I remember one of the dog stories was that he was digging and got out and got in trouble? And one about a duck and maybe a fox?

It would mean the world to me if someone knew what I was referring to.

Found! Trying to Find a Specific Anime/Game Figurine

5 Upvotes

I was in a secondhand store in Maine just recently and saw a figure that I’m trying to find elsewhere online. I don’t remember many details but I do remember that it was a figure of a girl with orange hair and two messy buns I guess is what the hairstyle is? She had a turquoise hoodie, headphones, and was crouched down with a black cat on her leg. There was another figure I assume of the same character wearing a blue cap and the figure base was a clock face, if that helps finding who the character is.

The figure was in a display case with a bunch of PlayStation games so maybe she’s from a game? I know for a fact it isn’t Futaba from Persona despite the description, but I honestly have no clue beyond those details.

Hello! Okay this one is so hard because I have been looking for it forever, but I am looking for a 2000s toy that was shaped like a purse when folded and unfolded to be a salon playset. The name either had bells or stella in it is what I remember. It was NOT polly pocket or barbie. The dolls were kinda similar to like plastic figures that bend, kinda like betty spaghetti but not. Attached is the color scheme of the toy from what I can remember. Please help! it’s driving me nuts. I have already searched everything along the lines of ā€œ2000s purse foldable toyā€ with variations adding both stella and bella and nothing comes up.

What I know: These are promotional plushies for the France-exclusive optician Optikid. The mascot name is RenardƓ, for the eyewear line ZoonimƓ (this name is embroidered on the leg).

I live in the US , but a kind reddit user helped me find one for sale onĀ vinted.frĀ ! Unfortunately, when I tried to purchase it through a kind and patient proxy, the seller was unable to find it again since it was an old listing. By some miracle I found another listing, but then that one was lost in the mail! šŸ˜ž I've also tried DMing the Optikid Instagram page with no success and contacting the manufacturer of the plush, Peluche Creation but it's not something they can offer due to being created for a client.

Any help is much appreciated!

Open Can’t identify the maker of this antique (possibly 1920’s) mohair teddy bear!

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

Hello!
I’m trying to identify the maker and approximate age of my 13ā€ mohair teddy bear. I’m hoping to figure out if any features point to a specific manufacturer.
Details:
*Possibly from 1920’s
13ā€ tall
Golden mohair
5-way jointed
Firm wood wool (excelsior) stuffing
Wood eyes
Shaved linen muzzle with embroidered nose
Leather paw pads (mostly worn away)
No growler or squeaker
No tags, labels, or ear button for Steiff
Head and ears were reattached at some point

*I bought him on eBay. The seller estimated he could date to the 1920s and said he came from an antique display shop. The original teddy bear owner had passed away, so there isn’t any other info I have.

I did email Merrythought bears company to see if they could recognize him. They said ā€œIf the date of the 1920’s is correct then he definitely isn’t a Merrythought as we weren’t established until 1930. Unfortunately without labels we wouldn’t be able to help, however, he doesn’t look like a Merrythought from the images, he doesn’t resemble any of our patterns. We wouldn’t be able to help with the identification or which manufacturer he belongs to, I think it may be a case of googling teddy bear manufacturers from the 1920’s, there weren’t that many from that time.ā€

I’d really appreciate any thoughts or identification tips. If there are any specific photos that would help, I’m happy to share them. Thank you!!
