Cherished Teddies Every Mile is a Memory Bear on a Tropical Road Trip Figurine

This was a gift. The recipient loved it.

Very cute & appropriate for 16 year old Granddaughter birthday.

My mom has been collecting these cherish teddies from before I can remember!!! Every year I buy her one for Christmas... this year I chose a bear driving an old fashioned car I assume is from her younger days haha!! Sorry mom!!Because I’ve been buying these for years I am familiar with the how the quality should be. I’m not a pro but seeing hundreds of these since I was little I can kinda tell that throughout the years the quality got lighter and lighter.... although they are still adorable as ever.. they are getting more cheap! I just hope these newer made ones last as long as the 20 year ago made ones since the entire collection will be mine one day and I’d like to see it last!!!I love that every teddy has a reason and a why.... under each figure there is a small “phrase” that gives it meaning to those who collect them. I hope they never discontinue these cause it’s something that means nothing to some but everything to us few who appreciate them!!!If you know a teddy bear lover as my mom is, you should start her a little collection of her own with these cherished teddies. Best part is these are inexpensive aside from the few rare ones that go for more!!
