I only remember hearing about the toy, when lip-synching machines were a novelty at the time. I also remember a Mother Goose and Grimm comic strip where Grimmy puts a tape of KISS music into a Teddy Ruxpin doll. Your cousin already outdid him!

I used to have the toys and the big talking version of him and Grubby (wasn't it Grubby? the yellow dude).

Teddy Tuxpin was creepy as hell.

I remember seeing the toy way back when, but I never bothered with the toon.

Well the cartoon is quite good and there's some episodes on Youtube including the rare live-action pilot that aired on ABC in 1986 before the animated show.

Oh my!! I needed a good laugh and that was most certainly what I needed!

Altho Teddy Ruxpin doesn't scare me half as much as Barney the Dinosaur or Hello Kitty....

Barney, I can understand. But, Hello Kitty?

Loved Teddy Ruxpin. I broke mine and it still bothers me to this day, b/c I made such a fuss about wanting one. I don't think any childhood possessions that I mishandled have caused me such guilt. I seriously would pay a crapload for a working, vintage Teddy Ruxpin from the 80s. I still have the tape that went in his back.

In 95 they had a newer one that talked along to VHS tapes, and my mom did the cruelest thing ever; brought it home to show it to me, then after getting acquainted with it, she gave it to my 5-year old cousin b/c I was "too old" for it.

It had a friggin Ninja Turtles video it came with, too!!!

I watched the toon a little bit but could never seem to catch it. I also have a little Quaker Oatmeal give-away storybook where Newton Gimmick reminds Teddy and Grubby to fill up on hot Quaker Oatmeal before the big Sled Race. Oh, and a coloring/activity book.

Love Teddy Ruxpin.
