This is the red teddy with Pikachu on the chest. He sold out immediately on release. 8" tall, with the new tag still attached in a tag protector.
I have stored them in airtight container since purchase. I have other colors, listed separately...see photo of the selection, if you want a set. Also have the holiday set, listed separately. This is for the RED Picabear only.
Great items for the beanie baby and/or Pokemon enthusiast and collector. A rare vintage piece to add to your collection...
