Ah that sucks. I've got to run and pick up the kids in a couple minutes but I'll do some searching around later on and see if I can find it somewhere else. I'm on a toy search myself (one of those dance mats that plugs into the tv, not a video game and not something too young) and I know how frustrating it can be not finding what you're looking for!

I bought my daughter one when they first came out in the 80's. She liked it for the first week until one of its eyes got stuck in this weird rolled back kinda way. Scared her to death. I sent it back, they replaced it, it broke again, I sent it back... they replaced it...it broke again.. I threw it away.

My daughter still talks about the creepy Teddy Ruxpin bear.

wow, i still have my son's teddy ruxpin from 1985 and a couple of outfits. most of the books and tapes.
dd got the talking mother goose for her first christmas--she was 3 weeks old. it was the original one, where the head turned as she talked to you. dd went to sleep with mother goose for a year or more. right now, it's on the top shelf here above the computer at our new house.
i remember ds thinking 'who wouldn't love a koala' as 'who wouldn't love uncle walla'. whenever we would go to an aunt and uncle's house, he would ask if 'uncle walla' would be there, too!
we still have the original teddy and his flight outfit and original outfit and all the books and tapes. ds chewed on a couple of the book bindings, but otherwise, everything is complete.
both kids loved teddy and mother goose! a later edition of mother goose did not have the head that looked from right to left and back as she talked.
