Thoughts: My first ever CB was Howie, who looks like Eton only in shades of brown. I had trouble bonding with Howie, because this design for some reason looks to me like it should be a lot smaller and these two are pretty tall and very chunky bears. I ended up selling Howie and I've regretted it for a couple years now, though I haven't tracked him down yet. Eton, being Howie's sister, was on my casual wishlist, too. I came across her from a US seller and was able to buy her. She arrived today and oh, she's so cuddly! I promised Scorch today would be his turn but Eton was really hard to put down after I found her a spot on the shelf. She's got a sweet little face, too. I wish they'd bring back this design. I'd love to see more bears use this pattern.
