Searching – Eden WHITE FLOPPY LAMB Wearing FLOWER PRINT SLEEPER
We have a mailing list of families looking for this adorable lamb, including THREE Top Priority ones.
I’m searching for an Eden lamb. It’s a chenille floppy white lamb, with pink satin in the ears. I prefer the one with the pink flower print sleeper with eyelet ruffle collar, but would be happy with the blue one.
This lamb is for my step daughter. I have photos of her as an infant dragging the one she had around. She and her sister both had one and had affectionately named them “Cindy”. They went through several of them simply by wearing them out. We have a piece of one, but it is in bad shape and very fragile. One daughter is graduating high school next month and going away to college in August, and you helped us to locate a blue print one as a surprise for her. Now we need to find one for her sister as well.
I appreciate this service that you guys offer, and I look forward to hearing you say you found us one!
Thanks,
Amy

Searching – 70′s PULL STRING TALKING RUFUS LION
Steve has posted on our Facebook page that he will pay top dollar for a Rufus!
We now have a mailing list of people looking for Rufus.
I’m looking for a talking Rufus the Lion. He was made in the 70′s and had a pull string to talk. He was kind of a yellowish brown, had a pull string at the back of his neck, an outie belly button, round, flat black plastic eyes with white felt behind them, and a bushy mane.
I got Rufus when I was really young, maybe 6 or 7. I came from a VERY dysfunctional family. My father beat my mother and was abusive to both me and my sister. All I had to hold on to back then was my Rufus the lion. He was my sanctuary. My friend.
I had him until I was about 19 or so. I had to move a lot as I was really poor and stayed with a lot of people, because I couldn’t afford much more. Somewhere he was lost. He’s as much a part of my life as anything I can remember.
I have 1,000s of bad memories but every good one had Rufus in it. To this day I cannot say I don’t still miss him terribly. I know I will never have my Rufus, but I want to bring him back to my life even through another. I think for me it will close a lot of bad chapters in my life.
It sounds silly being 43 and still wanting him, but it’s true. I have gone to 100′s of swap meets looking through untold thousands of boxes of old stuffed animals looking for him. I have posted on the internet and finally got a photo at least from a lady who was as attached to him as was I. She wouldn’t sell him at any cost. I will never stop looking for him so long as I am able. I have written and called Mattel in the hopes that they would help. They can’t help.
My wife is asking me why I am crying, as I try to explain how much he means to me…words can’t even go there. She cannot understand the feelings that I have for Rufus even if he isn’t the original. He means more to me than just about anything in the world. I want to be reunited with him, so I can hopefully begin to get past that which happened so many years ago.
Please help me to find him!
Thanks,
Steve

Searching – Musical Easter Bunny (1991-1995?)
This is an edited photo based on description, but the rabbit should be holding the egg in BOTH hands.
I am searching for a Easter bunny. He was white and its fur wasn’t real short, but it wasn’t long either, maybe ¾”. It sat upright with its feet facing straight out and its ears stood straight up (neither were floppy). The entire bunny may have been about a foot tall. Its cheeks were kind of fuzzy, but the same white color as the rest of the bunny. I don’t recall any whiskers and I believe its eyes were black plastic. It’s most distinctive features include the fabric inside its ears and on the egg it held between its front paws. The fabric was smooth and had a colorful Easter egg or jelly bean print on a solid, light green/blue background. The egg had a round, red felt patch of fabric on it that read “press me” or “press here”. When pressed, it played a lullaby of some sort.
When I was little, I won an Easter bunny at an Easter egg hunt; I believe it was sometime between 1991 and 1995. The Easter egg hunt took place in a park in my old neighborhood. Whoever found a large plastic egg, won a prize. Me and this other kid saw the egg at the same time, but I was determined and dove under a bush just to obtain it. When I walked up to the gazebo where they were handing out prizes, I was so happy to receive my Easter bunny. I think my mom accidentally threw it in a garage sale since I’ve been at school (I guess she didn’t remember?), but I’m hoping to find the same one, I assume they were mass-produced. My Easter bunny was very special to me.
Thanks,
Ashley

Searching – Purple and White Musical Horse MANE LIGHTS UP
This is an edited photo.
I am searching for a white horse with a purple mane and tail. She was about a foot long and laying down. If you pressed her hoof she played a song, I think it was twinkle twinkle little star, and her mane would light up with rainbow colors.
Star was my childhood toy. I loved her! I took her everywhere I went, and had her from when I was a tiny baby till I was about 12. I loved horses then, and I am now a horse trainer, but no horse can take her spot in my heart. Id love to find another one. My sister got mad at me one day while we were on vacation and hid her from me and thus I no longer have her. I have never been able to find another.
Thanks,
Felesha

Searching – 80′s BAH KOO with ELEPHANT SNOUT, COW EARS, and LION TAIL
We now have a mailing list of people looking for this unusual animal character.
I am looking for a Bah Koo plush toy. It was sold with the sole purpose of helping little kids with nightmares. Bah Koo has an elephant’s snout, cow’s ears, and a lion’s mane and tail.
I still have the book that I bought for my children in 1987. I was cleaning out the garage several years ago and inadvertently picked up the wrong bag of stuffed animals and took them to a shelter in Van Nuys, California. It had our most treasured stuffed animals including Bah Koo. I tried calling the shelter but they told me they didn’t have it and would have given their “leftovers” to Salvation Army. I have been trying to find it ever since. I’d love two, (one for each of my kids) but not to be greedy, I’d take one if that’s all I can find. If anyone knows of one or two for sale, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley

FOUND!! – 2005 Boyd’s Baby Small LIGHT BROWN & WHITE Floppy Lanky BEAR
A very excited Mary writes:
I got it!! You all are really good at this! Thank you so much!
It looks just like it- of course I’ll have to wash it a bunch and drive over it with the car to make it look old like the original brown bear;-)
I’m looking for a light brown and white very floppy and lanky bear that was about 9 inches long. Its body was stuffed (no beans just stuffing), but the joints were floppy. It had a small neck and my daughter carried it by the neck. It had embroidered eyes, nose and mouth with white face, hands and feet. It was a baby shower gift in 2005.
She was three when the picture of her holding it was taken. My 6 year old lost her treasured teddy bear at Target 2 days before Christmas in a Target in East Memphis, Tennessee, in 2010. We checked lost and found, but to this day we have not found it.
We pray frequently to find him and for the Lord to comfort my daughter thru this. My daughter prays for God to bring her Brown bear back all the time. I encourage her to have faith.
Thank you!

Searching – 2004 IKEA ORANGE PILLOW with PIG? DOG? FACE
Jennifer is still looking for this pillow. Olivia’s toy really had no face, just big eyes and the ears were big and floppy like a puppy’s ears. It was more like a pillow with eyes and ears than an animal of any sort.
I checked the Ebay #, but unfortunately that is not the stuffy we are looking for. I feel that maybe IKEA released 2 toys under the same name, or they have given us the wrong name. This UGGLA looks like an owl, but ours looked more like an orange blob with long ears. Thanks any ways. I have included a pic that my daughter painted of her for you. Believe it or not, it’s quite accurate. Thank you again.
About 5 years ago I bought an orange stuffed toy for my then 2 year old, Olivia. The toy was more like an orange pillow with fabric eyes and long ears. She named it Oinky. It took me a while to track down some info on Oinky. He was originally distributed by IKEA under the product name UGGLA and was supposed to be an ‘owl head’. (Didn’t look like an owl to me.) The toy was discontinued in 2006. I am still looking for a pic to send you.
No one could have predicted how much Olivia would come to love Oinky. For 5 years he was her best friend, her baby, her playmate and the toy she loved over all others. I have lost count of how many pictures Olivia has drawn of Oinky, and this past fall when Olivia took part in a collaborative mural made of ceramic tiles at her school she painted Oinky, and now he is a permanent part of her school’s history.
Sadly this April, on a family trip to Florida, Oinky was lost at Disney World. We have been in contact with Disney and IKEA. I hope and pray every day Oinky will be returned to us. Olivia has told us Oinky is currently traveling the universe with his mother (whom he found at Disney), and when his adventure is over he will return home to her. I pray this is so.
Thank you for any help you can give us.

Searching – LARGE BLUE FLOPPY DOG with DARK EARS, EYE PATCH, NOSE, FEET – Top Priority
We still have not found this beloved dog! We have our eyes, minds and hearts wide open looking.
It will be a great day when this prayer is answered.
Thank you so much!!
Love
Melissa
My daughter was killed in a car accident 8 months ago. Her 4 year old son was in the car with her. He was unhurt, but his precious “blue baby” was not so lucky.
It’s blue with dark blue ears and tail. The fur is almost like a long terry cloth, not furry at all – just like bumpy cloth. Blue Baby is about 3 feet long, nose to tail, and it’s floppy and lays flat. It was made by DanDee company, and they no longer make them.
He thinks Mommy took blue baby with her and asks all the time if blue baby died. It would just be too hard to say yes. I have looked everywhere!
Forever grateful,
Melissa

Searching – 1983? PLUSH YELLOW CAR – Windup YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE
Lisa is still looking for this 80′s plush yellow car.
I’m looking for a soft stuffed yellow car that was about 7 inches long and wound up to play “You Are My Sunshine”.
I do not have any photos of the car. It was actually pretty plain, no flaps that opened at the doors, and I don’t recall any bumpers being screen printed. It was more of a toy for infants, with a very short, smooth, furry covering. It was not cloth. It did seem kind of rounded at the top, like a Volkswagen Beetle.
I had to give up my baby girl for adoption in 1983. I bought this car for her before she was placed and asked the adoption agency to pass it along to her new parents. It was my hope that her parents would have told her it was from me. I always sang the song “You are my Sunshine” to my daughter when I was pregnant and when I cared for her in the hospital. She contacted me a couple of years ago, and we have started to form a friendship. Sadly, she never got the little yellow car.
It would mean a lot to be able to give it to her now.
Thank you,
Lisa

Searching – Peoria Plastics BIG WIG PIG and Applause ROQUEFORT J PIG FOUND
Jeannie is still looking for her Big Wig Pig.
The story of how Roquefort the Pig was found is so interesting I made a post out of it!
I’m looking for BIG WIG PIG. He was part of a collection from Peoria Plastics called Parade Pals. He was pink plush, quite tiny, and wearing a white felt hat with a red white and blue ribbon. I’m also hoping to find Roquefort J Pig made by APPLAUSE, part of the Joy Of Pigging Out collection.
This is the only picture of him we have. He was damaged badly, and we want him back so bad. There has to be another one somewhere, but we have tried EBay and different garage sales and markets, with no luck. Someone must have bought him, too, so he’s got to be out there.
Thanks,
Jeannie

Searching – 2009? Target BLUE & WHITE BEAR BLANKIE
Jenna is still looking for this blankie.
I’m looking for a light blue 15 inch square Target super soft bear blankie. It has a slightly darker blue satin edging and lining. The head is approximately 3 inches in diameter at its widest point. It has white centers in its ears, with a white muzzle and blue stitched eyes, nose and mouth. The hands are joined together, but it is not holding or clutching anything. It is very plain and simple, but is worth more than gold to my son. The back of the label is so faint. It may say 48274700 or 46274700 but I cannot be sure! The front of the label has the Target circles with Made in China.
My son, Rex, received this blue bear security blanket as a gift when he was born. He is now 2 and is more than very attached to this blanket. He does everything with it- drinks milk, sleeps, rides bikes, watches movies etc. — he loves it so much! There has been the odd occasion where I have not been able to find it for a day or night, and the consequence of this was a very unhappy, disrupted, sleepless child. So now I am very conscious of knowing its every move and trying to preserve it from rolling in the dirt and smothering in food, as every time I wash it, it feathers and wears even more.
I know it is not going to last forever and would love a backup blanket (or 2) in the event that it gets lost permanently or does not survive the wash. I have been in contact with Target Australia and USA with little response other than to say that it has been discontinued, and that they have comparable ones available. Little do they know that I have tried “comparable ones” only for them to be thrown across the room time and time again. It has to be identical feel, color, size, touch and even smell. It is the only thing that comforts him in his time of need and makes him feel secure – hence the name security blanket. Even Mum’s cuddles do not compare to being able to clutch his Binkie and rub the satin edging. These chain stores should really think about the consequences of discontinuing an item like this, because it has caused major disrupt in my family.
Regardless, I would be very grateful to anyone who may have this item lying around, and I would be able to give it a loving home. It may be one that someone has tried as a replacement blanket for another item that they have lost and their child never took to. It saddens me to think that there must be millions of these things in circulation, and that I cannot get my hands on the one thing that my son loves more than anything in the world. Thank you so much for any help you can give.
Kindest Regards,
Jenna

FOUND – 1979 WHITE Realistic LAMB with PEACH FACE & FEET
A very excited Amber writes: Omg!!! It’s it!!! I just bought it!!! I can’t thank u all enough!!! Im crying right now!!!! I love everyone who put any time and energy into this search!!!
I’m looking for a realistic looking white lamb purchased in the Spring of 1979 from Castner Knots. It has flesh colored face and feet and orange? and black glass looking eyes. It’s probably 12 inches long and 8 inches tall, but I have no idea of the brand.
My grandmother gave me this lamb when I was 8 months old, and it became the animal I slept with until I was 13 and put him in box. In 2000 my mother’s house flooded, and my lamb was ruined
I’m super sad! If I find him I will never put him in a box again…please help!!!
I have searched and searched…I’m desperate!
