Thoughts: This guy has a story. I was waiting on the CB  website for the gargoyles to drop and I browsed the sale section. I saw Stepping Stones marked down to 70% off. Yes, SEVENTY. I had always thought he was cute and checked him out when my stockists got him in, but I'm super picky about bears that size because I don't have a lot of room for big ones and they're pricey. Well, for $69 how could I not get this guy? I figured if I didn't bond with him, I could sell him and more than make my money back. Out of the box though, he's incredibly soft and cuddly. I think the brown parts are tyber. Pretty sure he's a keeper. He reminds me of a much bigger, fancier-colored version of Karl. I went back a couple days later and he was marked off either 29 or 30%. Not 70%. Soooooo someone made a little mistake and I reaped the benefits. Thank you, CB employee! I don't think I would ever have gotten him otherwise.
