FOUND a Substitute - 80's White MOTHER and BABY LAMB Crib Pull Toy MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB

Joanne was able to find a different mother and baby lamb toy that plays the same song, and her daughter seems happy with it.

I'm looking for a crib toy, originally purchased about 10 years ago. It's a stuffed mother ewe and her lamb (both white), connected by a string. The body wasn't really floppy. It was more of a traditional sheep shape (four small legs facing downward).

When you pull them apart, it plays "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and they slowly draw together again. I've trolled the Internet but no luck. I don't remember the brand. :(

Our first child was given the toy as a gift upon his birth. When I had a second child, I passed it down to her. When she grew, I "cleaned house" one day and gave away a lot of stuffed animals to charity. I should have kept that one, even though it was a crib toy. She's been pining away for it and is upset with me for giving it away, so I told her I would search everywhere to see if I can find another.

Thanks for whatever help you can provide.

Searching - 80's WHITE LAMB with BLACK FACE

It would mean a great deal to my daughter if I could find one of these lambs.

My daughter lost her favorite stuffed toy, a lamb, at Disneyworld. We believe that she left it in the bed under the covers. We contacted Disneyworld, but they told us nothing was found in the laundry.

My daughter was very sad and has been ever since. We have bought similar stuffed lambs, however none will do for her. I am on a quest now to find this. I believe the company that made this back in the mid 1980’s is no longer in business. If anyone could help find one of these for me I would be greatly appreciative.

Thank you very much for helping.

Searching - TWO 70's? 80's? BUNNIES Childhood Lovies

I am looking for 2 stuffed bunnies, like I had as a child. One of them was white, sitting with front paws at a 4:00 angle, with a pink nose and pink ribbon. The other was pink and yellow. It had yellow paws, ears, and tummy and red eyes. They were probably 70's or early 80's toys. Can you help me find these?

Searching - 70's or 80's BROWN HOBO DOG - CLEM????

Hello,

I saw your website and I thought I would email you and ask you if you possibly know of a toy that I am in search of. You look like just the people who can help me. I don’t know what the toy is called, neither do I know who made it. All I know is that the toy was made sometime in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s.

It’s a stuffed dog who was dressed like a hobo. He had bib overalls with patches and possibly a hat. He was brown and had a black nose, but the nose was not plastic, just fabric. For a mouth he had two strings sewn on the snout. He had an apple or a strawberry patch on the left side of the bib of the overalls.

If you have heard of such a toy or even know what it was called, please let me know. I would really like to find this item!

Thank you in advance,

Helen Zaikina-Montgomery

One of our readers has added this information:

I think I may have found the name of the hobo dog that Helen is looking for. I found the following information on the drtoy.com web site:

In the mid 70's - early 80's I had a stuffed dog named Clem. He had on overalls, and I have since learned he originally came with a bandana. I have also since learned he had a brother and sister named Clyde and Clara.

I hope this helps Helen find a replica of her toy!

Searching - 80's PINK with CALICO BUNNY RABBIT

I am searching for a pink and calico patchwork rabbit that was purchased in the early 80's, probably at a local discount store here in Northeast Ohio, like Fisher Big Wheel or Kmart, probably around Easter time.

It was my son's constant companion, until it was lost at a park and never found. It was not a high quality item or a collectible, but "Bobbity" was very, very much loved by a certain chubby-cheeked little boy who is now a grown man.

He has gotten over it, I'm pretty sure, but I haven't! And I probably won't be able to stop this obsessive searching until I find another "Bobbity"!!

Please, any help here is much appreciated!!

Thanks!

Searching - HERO HIPPO 80's Plush Hippopotamus

This is NOT the Hippo she is looking for, but my attempt to come close to what it looked like.

I am looking for a stuffed toy Hippo from the 1980's. It was about 8-10 inches high, had on a shirt (might have been an orange shirt,) that said HERO on the front. I believe it was a tan color (Now that I look at your picture I'm thinking it was a lighter color more beige.), short legs, the shirt was orange and had written HERO or HIPPO HERO on it. A size for a younger child or toddler to easily hold and carry.

This is a stuffed animal my 28 year old son vividly remembers fondly, and now he has a 3 month old son, and I thought it would be fun to find one for him. Your picture is very close ~ the shirt was I believe short sleeve or sleeveless, and he was thinner - not so plump and stiff.

Thanks for all your interest. If I can find an original one, it would be a wonderfully fun surprise for my son and sentimental gift for my grandson

FOUND - 80's PINK PIG Blue Dress & BONNET

Thank you so much!!! This is my pig Myrtle and there is no doubt about it:) Thank you so much for your help. What a sweet thing you do bringing joy to so many people. I wouldn't have thought after all this time you would still have my information on file. Thanks again for bringing a smile to my face.
Melissa


The BIG THANKS goes to JANN for taking the time to email me that she had the pig!

In the mid 80's I was given a pink stuffed pig wearing a blue dress, apron and bonnet. She was about 15" tall, and her ears stuck through the bonnet. It was my favorite toy as a child, and I lost in a move across the country.

Can you help me find a replica?

FOUND - RUBBER HEADED 80's Small Beanie Animals

Cat Jane has gone our of her way to read through a lot of requests and find quite a few toys for our searchers, plus adding information to several others, that will eventually help in finding those, too.

So I really did want to help her, when she asked for help identifying these small dolls.

As often happens, I found them today, as I was doing research to find someone else's toy! And here's a picture of the collection from Galoob Toys. They are called "SO SMALL BABIES"!

Hello, I really could use a hand on figuring out the name of some tiny bean bag bodied characters with rubber heads that I played with in the 80's. They were around 2 or 3 inches big.

There were bears, cats and babies that I can remember. By awesome luck I recently was able to grab a picture of a puppy one while searching for a fellow searcher's Kitty Surprise. It was included along as a misfit to the item. The puppy had no offered ID or tush tag available unfortunately.
Help me if you can!

Thanks!!

Searching - 1980's GUND Plush Bumblebee - Revised

I'm looking for a plush bumblebee that my son accidentally left behind at the Jefferson Unitarian Universalist church nursery. Unfortunately this was about 15 years ago, and I think another child may have taken the bee. I've looked for years for another bee like this. It was a Gund toy and was black and yellow. I got it as a gift in 1981, when I was 16 years old.

It's an actual plush bumblebee. Probably about 8 to 12 inches long and plump. He had white wings, black and yellow stripes, and six legs. The legs were black, I think. He also had antennae and a smile. It was more like a cartoon bumble bee in appearance.

So the truth comes out--a 42 year old woman is looking for a plush bumblebee that she still misses!

Searching - 80's Rock a Bye Baby White Lamb

I am looking for a musical stuffed toy from about the 1980 time frame. It is a white lamb with pink inside the ears. It looks like it is sitting like a dog but the head is turned to look at you when you have its side facing you. It has big eyes. The music box plays "Rock a Bye Baby". It has a nub of a tail that sticks up, but is not separate. The music box knob is on the other side of the lamb with the back of the head facing you from that side. I had this lamb as a kid and would love to find one again.
