The beautiful lock master flew into my hug yesterday.
He is absolutely gorgeous. 🥰
Question to everyone who owns Quarry-
Hey guys! Sooo I've been researching which charlie bear to get as my first one. Has to be unjointed because I want to be able to hug them at night without having to worry about breaking something (and I'd always worry about that no matter how well-made the joints are).
I love monsters and everything fantasy, so I ended up falling in love with Quarry. He just looks so cute with his little tusks and his horn and lidded eyes...
Anyway. I've been trying to find videos and pictures that make it clearer, but that's proven to be harder than I expected, so, here I am. I just need some reviews, so to say, from people who already own him.
How does his long fur feel?
How firmly is he stuffed (especially his belly)?
How heavy is he?
How floppy are his legs? Do they fully flop down when you pick him up or they just kinda stay in a sitting position?
I'd be super thankful if anyone could help me with these questions!

Rheya is on her way!
I’m so excited! She’s going to be my first Charlie Bear! I had a hard time deciding at first, but as soon as I saw her I knew instantly. I can’t wait for her to arrive! (Also photo is from the ad as I don’t have her in my possession yet😆)
Mythical Creatures
The current status of the mythical creatures hug, minus the cuddle cubs. Loving them all so, so much! The next additions are all on pre-order (Tizzie Whizie, Maylin, Sorrel and Griffin) and I’m hoping to add Lantern in the semi-near future.
why qvc!?
they had these 2 babies on clearance last week and i caved 😭 jabberwocky is my absolute favorite so far. i am new to charlie bears and didn't realize there are stockists who let you choose a face?! any recs on your fave stockist?
Cogwheel
Such a stunning boy! Absolutely love his neat coat colours and his pendant.
You've got a friend in me
My Charlie Bear Water Elf, named Trout. Hanging out with bestie BLÅHAJ from Ikea.
Which Websites to Pre-Order from in the US
So I'm looking to purchase Sorrel but unfortunately I missed out on the pre-order from both Charlie Bear US and Bears Against MS which are my go-to's. I want to make sure I get one so I'm hesitant to wait and see if one comes up on the wait-list.
I've been looking at a couple of sites and was just wondering which ones people think are best and what sort of experiences they've had with them.
The sites I've been looking at are The Toy Shoppe, FairyTales, Samantha's Dolls, and The Holiday Barn.
So what does everyone think? Any to avoid? Any thoughts or recommendations are appreciated.
Hello ☺️ I need some advice for getting my first bear.
I‘m new to Charlie Bears and looking to buy my first, but I‘m looking for one with really soft fur, because I‘m quite sensitive to sensory things abd I dislike coarse, rough fur. I prefer the wildlife or woodland animals, so if you have any recommendations please let me know 🥺.
So far I really like the look of Perth and Fernando. If you have them, is their fur soft?
I appreciate any feedback 🎀
New US delivery photos
Hi friends, I've just received my shipment at Kelly's Sweets and Greets in Pittsburgh and I wanted to share in- the-fur photos with you! Feel free to request more photos of these guys, or any other bears in my shop. I love to share since they're so much better in person than in the catalog. Most of these are available if you're looking to adopt!
My first CB, Rea, arrived today!
I actually wasn’t planning on getting her for a while but she popped up on FB and I couldn’t pass her up! She’s such a cutie. 🥹
Can’t decide who my first two should be
Between Amelie, Tricorn, fiddle faddle, Nicky, and carenza! If any of you guys have photos of these ones I’d love to see!
Fabric backing was showing, fixed with a marker pen
My Moss arrived, always a gamble buying random patterned plush online but I LOVE his face patterns! The only thing is that the fur was trimmed back too far in a couple places, so you could see the white fabric backing on the bald patches. He was heavily discounted so I'm not bothered by that, and definitely wouldn't send him back. I used a copic marker to try and colour in the white fabric and it worked!! Now he's perfect 🥰
If anyone has similar issues with a bear, I definitely recommend trying a copic marker in a matching colour to blend it in with the rest of the fur.
Changing his name to Doolittle (or maybe Mr Grieves 🤔) since his colour scheme is just like the Pixies album lol
Last pic he's with Miss Liddell (renamed Silver), who I also got in the sale and am so happy with her patterns too, I wanted one with black over one eye and got lucky!
my first charlie bears!
last week i visited my local stockist with the intention to find jellycats but was pleasantly introduced to charlie bears! i had NO idea they existed and now i am OBSESSED 😭 i can't wait to expand my hug
Stewart arrived today ❤️
Was trying to decide what bear I wanted next and fell in love with Stewart’s face! His nose freckles reminded me of my dog and I love his little tie
