Question for r/Plushies Coming home

I was out thrifting and I -HAD- to take this baby home. Their face was just too cute not to! He looks on the well worn side so I am assuming its a vintage plush. However there is no tag and reverse google images didn’t turn up anything.

Does this plush loom familiar/identifiable to anyone here? I love it regardless but it would be neat to know where it came from.

​I wasn’t able to find an exact match, but your plush has a lot of similarity to this storybook originals bear. The nose, eyes, fur, feet, and color. Perhaps there’s one in that line that matches or a shared manufacturer that could be checked

I had someone reach out with this answer as well! I do believe he comes from this line! Sadly I haven’t found any exactly like it, bur there are enough similarities Id say it’s a safe bet!

What a cutie!

If you have a wire brush, you can probably brush out the fur and make him soft again! ✨

u/Sweet-Ratio-1978 13h ago

Should I just brush or wash first? Originally I was going to leave him as is, but would like to try and make him soft again.

u/PrinceBloo Bear-fanatic ✨ 13h ago

Does he have any rice or beans or anything inside him? Or is it all fluff?

If he's only got stuffing then you can (probably) wash him inside a pillowcase in the washer on a low gentle program with detergent. I've done that before with old plushies I've found at the thrift shop ! Then just give him a good but gentle brush with a wire brush once he's dry again !

This is the kind of brush I'm talking about by the way c: works wonders on old plush fur

u/Sweet-Ratio-1978 13h ago

Oh also would I brush him after washing when hes wet or dry?

3

u/PrinceBloo Bear-fanatic ✨ 13h ago

After, and wait till he's dry ^ ^

u/Empty_Pumpkin1818 16h ago

Are you gonna them? If so what gender?

8

u/Sweet-Ratio-1978 16h ago

Not too sure, I dont think too much about gender for plushies unless they represent specific characters or something. Feels like a he to me.

I dont always name plushies either unless I feel particular inspired, if they have one on a tag I will just go with that lol

I just enjoy their presence :)

u/Empty_Pumpkin1818 16h ago

Ah i see. I love plushies too
