Help identify lost 80's toy
« on: July 14, 2014, 03:04:58 PM »
Hi!

I doubt anyone will remember these, but if anyone can give me the name of these 80's toys, I would aprpeciate it very much.

They were teddybears in MLP kind of colors, and kinda the same size, made in some soft material, similar to the So-Soft ponies I guess. They had a little piece of long hair. You could push in their stomach and some kind of perfume would come out of their mouths. Their tails were plush and with a plastic brush attached at the end.

I think they were 80's toys, doubt they were earlier, and I think they must have been made by some of the larger toycompanies at the time, even if not Mattel or Hasbro.

I was also going to say "Brush a love" bears, but I couldn't remember what they were called. After checking the link above, though, I think it might actually be a "Kiss a love", which was flocked plastic instead of plush.

Yes that's it, Kiss-a-Loves! I would never have thought of that name. I guess I never memorized it back then. Thanks both of you! :)

Made some searches for them now and I'm surprised to see there were only six of them. Although I've found a picture that shows six extra ones with alternate colors. Perhaps those were never released.

Very excited to see there are Brush-a-Loves too, which seem to be related.

Funny there were so many similar toys in the 80's, MLP, Popples, Keypers, Kissa-A-Loves, Carebears and lots more. Not that they are that similar, but put them next to each other and you can kinda connect one to the next in several ways. Kiss-a-Loves I guess is the link between popples and MLP, or something like that.
