Collectible Teddy Bear
++++++++++++++++++++++
Muffy has become a favorite collectible among young and old teddy bear and doll collectors.
She is dressed in a new outfit every Spring and Fall.
Also at the end of the year Muffy is dressed up in a limited edition holiday outfit.
Muffy also has her best friend Hoppy the Bunny, her dog Lulu, and horse Oatsy.
NABCO also created larger bears for Muffy's Dad, Mom, and big brother and sister.
We had a fun Teddy Bear Collectibles Shop and were Authorized Retail Dealers
for NABCO in the 1980s - 1990s - 2000s.
When we closed our shop doors, this item was still in our NEW Inventory.
All New Inventory was carefully packed in bins and placed in storage.
Now after 25-30 years, we are unpacking all our Muffy and Hoppy New Inventory
to sell here on eBay.
If you are familiar with collectible Muffys, Boyds Bears, Russ Bears, etc., you know that
some of their adorable outfits contained elastic (hats, dresses, pants, etc).
In many of the outfits, the elastic did not stay fresh over the years,
but still the bears stayed collectible.
Some of Muffy / Hoppy's outfits that we are selling may contain elastic that is not as stretchy as
it was originally.
If you have concerns or questions on this particular issue, please contact us for
additional detailed information on this specific listing.
We are unboxing lots of Muffys and Hoppys at this time and will be listing them on eBay over the next few weeks.
Photos are of the exact bear you will be receiving.... If we can find stock photos, we may include one for reference.
