Searching – 80’s Large BRIGHT YELLOW Seated PUFFALUMP STYLE ELEPHANT

Posted on by April 2, 2016

I’m looking for a VERY BRIGHT YELLOW nylon stuffed elephant that was made sometime in the early or mid-1980’s. It was NOT made by Fisher-Price, but I don’t remember the toy company name. However, I remember it was a major toy company. It was pretty large– I dunno, maybe 16 inches? Maybe larger? And the yellow nylon on its tummy was all gathered. It was sitting up.

I saw this at the local Drug Store in Iron Mountain, Michigan, and fell in love with it. But by the time I’d saved enough money to buy it, they’d already sold out of the three or four that they had, and told me they could not re-order it. I was a young adult at the time and had just moved out to the Midwest, so I was short on money. I was also heartbroken not to be able to get it, as I never saw it anyplace else!

I have done very extensive and prolonged searches on eBay, but have never seen it since.

Thanks for your help,
PK

  1. Hello. I keep reading your listing and wonder are you thinking of a Commonwealth Jumbo Love?

    There are many different animals (Elephant, Monkey, Bear, Bunny) and colors(Yellow, Blue, Pink, Purple & White). They also larger in size and have big eyes. Here is an example of a blue one (I think it is a bunny or dog one) on ebay right now see #150612793638

    There are also a few pictures in the dirty butter shoppe on this site for you to look at to determine if we are on the right track. They have sewn or gathered legs and arms.

    Just a thought. Best Wishes! Susie

  3. Susan, I sent her links to the Jumbo Loves and the other ones I had photos of, just in case, but they must not have been the right ones. And I’m sending PK the other links you have listed here.

    Thanks, as always, for all the wonderful work you do here!!!!

  4. Gee, he didn’t really look like any of them, althought there were some similarities with some of them; he just had TREMENDOUS personality. And he wasn’t just seated: he was stting up. on his butt! His front (chest, tummy) was all vertically gathered. The most distinctive thing about him was the deep, extremely bright, really neon yellow color. That alone (along with the heavy nylon material) would distinguish him from any other elephant.

  5. I think I had this elephant when I was a kid. I used to take pictures of all my stuffed animals, so I’ll see if I can find one.

    I lived in Minneapolis, so I think the Dayton-Hudson brand is a good guess.

    Oh say, this one isn’t the same color, but I was wondering if he might look close to the elephant you were looking for:
