Just put this guy together and I'm really pleased! He's made from a fluffy recycled raccoon jacket. His name has not yet been made clear to me, so for now he's R. B. He's 24" tall and very stout with steel shot and plastic pellets to give him further substance. Like Big Daddy, he's a good listener. But he's a more an active listener than a consoling one. I get the feeling that he's genuinely interested in my doings and would like to participate!
Raccoon skins are tough and I went through several needles and have thimble blisters. I think the end result is worth it, though.

Wow - so much character on his handsome face! :clap:

He looks terribly wise and profound
Hi Sue,
Comparing him to Big Daddy, he is definitely a more serious bear. You can't pull the wool over his eyes!
Love his bear suit! Sorry about the blisters...but he was worth it.

He is gorgeous! I know what you mean about the raccoon skin... every time I use raccoon I swear I never will again as the hide is so tough. But eventually I do as the fur is so beautiful!
Wow, Sue. He is great. So a wonderful lobely expression on his face
