STARDUST

Arrival Date: 9/13/24

Size: 11"

Year: 2024

Designer: Charlie

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $63

Thoughts: Stardust is the companion to Starburst, who's got longer fur in bright red and yellow. Stardust is green, yellow, pink and purple in delightful neon shades. He's teeny tiny, but boy, does he stick out on the shelf! 

PAPRIKA

Arrival Date: 9/13/24

Size: 13"

Year: 2024

Designer: Charlie

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: Free with rewards (Retail $70)

Thoughts: Oh, what a little sweetheart. I knew I needed Paprika when I saw him, because he reminds me of two of my earliest bears: Allsorts and Penny Chew. Well, not so much Penny, as she has gray, but definitely Allsorts, and for me, those two are a package deal, as they came from the same stockist. Paprika has this sad little face and his head is angled forward a bit. You just want to comfort him. He also has a big white belly that sticks out, so he's quite cuddly, even though he's little. He has very soft fur and I definitely recommend him.
