Thoughts: Curly was sort of a whim. I thought the trio of curly bears was interesting, but it was Scrabble that got my pre-order. Then Bampa came out awhile ago in the UK and I thought he was neat-looking, but not many people got him and I kind of forgot about him. Then Curly came out...I think on QVC UK...and people bought him right up. I saw photos of him and liked him a lot more than I did at first. I knew I had a Rewards Coupon coming after Brat, Dave and Dusk, so I thought I'd check out real photos of Curly and possibly very likely pick him to use my coupon on. Well, he was more popular than I planned and he got fully reserved, but thanks to some changed minds, I ended up having 3 to choose from, including 2 of my 3 favorite ones. I never thought this guy would be left for me, because when I saw all 8, I deemed him and one other (who got claimed first) the cutest. I think people were put off by his nose. The other Curlys have a striped nose, but mine didn't get any stripes. I prefer a cute face to nose stripes, unless the stripes are crucial to the design (see: Tick Tock), so it's obvious this guy was meant for me to adopt. His fur is SO awesome and he's super huggable. I love him a lot!
