Thoughts: Oh, Macaroon. I fell in love with this design back in September 2017 when QVC UK got him. I contemplated having a UK friend help me get him, but then there became a possibility that he'd make it to our QVC, so I waited. Then he showed up on CB Direct Australia, sold out on QVC UK and the US QVC March show passed with no older Secret Collection bears, so I became a bit worried. He returned to QVC UK, but there was no chance for me to ask for help, because you saw how many bears I've been getting! Paying double shipping was out of the question. Last week, he turned up on regular CB Direct FINALLY. My mom helped me get him, because I was a few bucks short, and he arrived today. Although it was not a happy delivery. The lazyass carrier took him to the office instead of my door, so I saw that my package was delivered and a stranger signed for it and I flipped out. Thankfully, I thought to call the office and fetched him from there. I'm still mad though and when I opened poor Macaroon's box, he looked mad, too. He's more serious-looking than a lot of other Macaroons I've seen. He's got a less rounded bobble head. It's more in proportion. I like it though. His colors are so cool and unique. I'm a sucker for the tipped fur that shows off another color underneath when you touch it. You can see the white splotch on his belly from where my hand was. So yes, all troubles aside, I think we're going to bond just fine.
