Thoughts: I never thought I would own this bear. She was on my wishlist very early on in my collecting and one I actually aimed for time and again. I missed out every time. Either I'd be outbid or the seller wouldn't ship to the US or I'd simply have no funds at the time she appeared. After seeing not one but three fellow collector friends get her super easily, I decided it wasn't meant to be and pretty much put her out of my mind. But bear fate works in mysterious ways and it suddenly plopped her in my lap. I saw a US collector on Facebook selling some of her bears and she had not one but two older ones I wanted! So Talitha is finally in my hug. She is HUGE. She's 20", but there's something about her that seems massive. She's very wobble jointed and top heavy, and she's loosely stuffed in the torso, so there's even less to support her large head. I reinforced her neck by winding a long black ribbon around it and that's made it easier for her to sit. She's so squishy in the torso that she's going to be amazing to cuddle! And I love her happy face. I'm not big on the gigglers like a lot of people are, but she's one of the best ones.
