Teddy bears are classic and timeless. They have heart and are always there when you need them. I collected teddy bears when I was younger and as I got older I became a knowledgeable collector. My reading and research led me to fall in love with GUND.
GUND is one of the original teddy bear manufacturers. This company has been around for 111 years. Their longevity is due to the high quality of their lovable, huggable bears. Kids fall in love with them and adults collect them.
Their slogan says it all, really. You “gotta getta GUND!”
2010 is Snuffles’ 30th birthday! Yes, back in 1980 GUND introduced Snuffles to the world. His unique shape was inspired by a crescent moon and he appears to gaze up into the eyes of whoever is hugging him. Since then GUND has become GUND’s most successful and well-known bear.
To celebrate GUND released special edition GUND teddy bears. Most of them are available for purchase – like the 15″ Chocolate 30th birthday Snuffles from Amazon.com for $42.64.
They also released a one-of-a-kind Suffles valued at $10,000! Let me tell you about this amazing bear! He is 10 inches tall and dripping in diamonds. He is wearing an astonishing birthday diamond necklace of 10 carats on a white gold chain. This Snuffles is made from white alpaca fur and has a genuine leather nose. Even the eyes are amazing and rare – made from 100% Tahitian pearls. The material value alone is at $10,000 – how much would you pay for this one of a kind teddy bear?
Buy It!
You can purchase the 15″ Chocolate 30th Anniversary Snuffles from Amazon.com – among other retailers!
Win It!
One lucky MamaDweeb reader will win 2 Snuffles – a 15” Chocolate & 15” Caramel 30th Birthday Editions – total ARV $100!!

What boy or girl wouldn’t love to cuddle with a bear when they are feeling like a hug! 30 years and still so cute.
I’ve owned countless Gund teddy bears over the years. My Dad would always talk about how they were “the best of the best”. My favorite thing about them is that they now remind me of my Dad.

We’ve never owned a gund teddy bear, but let me say this: my daughter’s “lovey” is a gund bunny rabbit. I’m currently hunting for a replacement on ebay just in case we ever lose it. I can imagine that this bear will be loved just as much (or at least come in a close second) because it looks SOOO loveable.

30th BIRTHDAY SNUFFLES CARAMEL 15″ is my favorite!!!
spdls0215@yahoo.com
We don’t have any GUND products but looking at it it looks super adorable and squishy! My kids would love to carry this around. My son gets attached to stuffed animals (he has SPD and loves the texture of most, and is always touching them) so he would love to have a new bear to play with and sleep with.

I don’t think I have ever heard of ‘Gund’ bears before. What I like about them is…. they look like bears….cute, cuddly, friendly bears, but bears none-the-less – and they look so … ‘huggable’.
