Bedtime bear review and modification!

My brother @dead-altar-dog very kindly purchased the amazon 19 inch bedtime bear and gave it to me! I appreciate it so much because aside from Bedtime being one of my absolute favorite care bears, I really wanted to do a small modification project!

Review and Process below the cut!

Starting with the pros, Bedtime bear is ludicrously soft, I will say jellycat levels of soft, this bear is luxurious. He's also very noticeably bigger than any of my other care bears, I'll add in a comparison photo here:

He's also very pleasantly stuffed, and the perfect balance of firm to squish. His embroidery is extremely high quality and doesn't have a single thread out of place (I usually just trim them). His belly badge is thicker than, and stuffed independently from, the rest of the bear, so it takes on a sort of memory foam texture. The white of his ears and badge are both a lovely mochi like texture, think squishmallow. His nose and hip heart are a lovely color and feel high quality. I'm not sure what to say besides that because I know high quality plastic is hard to imagine but it's very sturdy.

Now onto the cons. The fluff on top of his head is scratchy and unpleasant in my opinion, but easy enough to avoid. I don't like how floppy his legs are when compared to his arms, but you probably wouldn't notice this unless you were carrying him like a baby. While his fur is extremely soft it does shed quite a bit bit first several times you touch the bear, this is true of last of my care bears and is not a Bedtime specific issue.

And now, The Modifications!:

So first I made this pouch, thinking I would be clever and put a microwavable rice bag in him for bedtime snuggles.

Then I made these

Ignore the foil I was having a moment. My intention was to disperse the weight throughout the bear, and only have one or two of the pouches be removable. At that point I realized

His back is too short for the zipper I have and I can't get another. 🤦 so I said OK well I can at least put in the weight, I put in two of the bags and am saving the other two for a future project, now he's very chunky and weighs about 3 pounds (a bit less than a kilo and a half) he's very snuggly and has been slowly amassing a Kandi collection.

Today’s bear meme is!! This is a bear

An oldie, but a goodie! Very few bear memes are as iconic and timeless as this is a bear! It’s also VERY factually correct!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5!!! My only note is that the bear ears are not denoted as being where the love is stored, even though they are and that is where the love is stored
