Searching – 80′s GUND BROWN BEAR with K-3 on the TAG
Randy is looking for a similar bear.
I’m looking for a 1981 GUND brown bear that says K-3 on the tag. He’s about 15 inches tall. He has a black nose and eyes with pads on feet of look alike leather. The manufacturer’s name is Bearfeat.
My girlfriend was given the bear when she was born, and it has since been destroyed. We have been looking all over for this bear with no luck. I would love to find her a new bear.
I have checked eBay many times with no luck. Please help!
Thank you!
-Tim

Tami, I wish it was that easy! Unfortunately, that is not the correct bear. I have seen that one on eBay before. Thank you for searching and let me know if you find anything else. Happy Holidays!

Try this link and I think its even the right colour but I don’t know if these bears are for sale but I think we have the name of your teddy. Go to the 17th photo on this page. Let me know what you think?

Thank you for continuing to look. Unfortunately, that is not the bear. This bear is extremely hard to find!
Brenda says:

Yes, very hard to find… thought that one was the wrong colour but maybe the same bear. Perhaps a fuller description might help. Does he have a black nose and black eyes (as appears in the photo)? Are his feet pads leather? Anything else you can think of that may help? Thanks
Yes! Black nose and eyes with pads on feet of look alike leather Thank you! Randy says:

are you sure he isn’t a DAKIN? I have a teddy very similar to this one which I got as a baby and He was made by Dakin. When I saw this picture, I thought it looked closest to my teddy as I have ever seen. I have been looking for a new teddy as well but he is dakin and not gund.

No, he is def. a GUND Bear. The tag says GUND 1981 K-3
Thank you.

Bear is sold but if this is the bear would give us a name and some additional info to work with.
Question is this the bear?

Does anyone know what the K-3 code means? Appears that they had K-1 through at least K-7. Seems trivial but might help as many are being referenced with this info. Will keep at it.

Carrie – I am guessing the ‘K’ may stand for KOREA? Not sure what the ’3′ means but going by how hard it is to find probably means how many were made … just joking, of course!

I check eBay regularly… I wouldn’t miss it if it appeared on eBay.
That is the bear that everyone mistakes for the actual bear.
Wish it were that easy! Been looking for years.
Thank you to everyone for continuing to search!

Hi again Tim, yes it is very close I have made the same mistake.
Just to clarify the differences are the eyes and nose colour; and perhaps the fur colour is a shade different (or not?) is that all or are there other differences that I can’t see?
Tim says:
August 24, 2011 at 7:38 AM
The bear is not jointed. Another words the arms and legs just hang with no joints. Also, the fur is not the same. Maybe a bigger picture can be posted to show the bear fur better. If you look at the two bears next to one another you will see they are not a match. Thank you!

Nope, wrong bear
Unfortunately, not even close.
