Thoughts: I haven't blind pre-ordered the birthday bear since Malcolm two years ago. I didn't do it this year. I waited along with everyone else to see what the mystery bear looked like and was surprised to see an original design. BB2018 was clearly inspired by a couple mohairs. She resembles the mohair year bear, but also Trinity, who must be one of the most popular mohairs ever. I think this is the first time they've done a plumo for the birthday bear, too. I didn't let myself get too attached to her, because I wasn't sure I'd get one, but my stockist must have had a cancellation and I was able to get her after all. She's very cute and unlike any other bear in my collection. If she was tipped in a lighter pink, I don't think I would have wanted her, but the darker really works well with her creamy main color. She doesn't have a name, but mine is Flora for the moment. It may change.
