Well the cartoon was created by a former Disney employee named Ken Forsse, that's why it has such a Disney influence

Teddy is kind of underrated

You can't beat the creepy classic. 😄

I love the old Teddy Ruxpin, sooo cute. Reminds me of Brigsby bear.

i have a first gen rubber- nosed teddy ruxpin, he works perfectly and i am grateful to have him

I saw one at a Barnes and Noble this weekend and like a child went towards it with a smile and almost a hug as if to say "My friend is back!" but he looked so different I also felt sad and walked away.

I loved my Teddy. I kept him for years. I remember the Christmas I got him. My mother still has the pictures. The new Teddy looks creepy.

The old one was better . I would rather have the older version because its so adorable

How hard it was for them to just make it look the same as the original????

1:34 Was that girl bear on the bottom left supposed to be concept art for a girlfriend for Teddy Ruxpin who never made it into the actual show? :) Who is she? I don’t think she was in the cartoon. UPDATE: Yup, she was apparently supposed to be Teddy’s girlfriend named Amber. XD It’s a shame she never really got anywhere and never got to appear in the show at all. :( I would of loved to see the cute romantic moments between her and Teddy. It’s a bummer it never came to be. :( I would of loved to see more of her. :(

I consider myself lucky to find one several years ago at a local Charity Shop here in Australia. It was in good condition, and had the original cassette tape inside. It also worked perfectly. And it only cost $4AU! The good people at the Charity Shop did not have much clue towards its true value, so I managed to go ahead with purchasing it. I also found another product based around that same technology in that same store at that same time. The Talking Mother Goose, which also cost $4AU. Why do I always have good luck with such things?

The old ruxpin was cuter.... Idk why they put unrealistic LCD eyes on him

Omg yes, I used to be obsessed with Teddy.

Teddy was apart of my childhood grewing up💯

3:13 teddys mouth was synced perfectly with the news anchors voice 😂💀

Have no fear friends, I’m Eternal.

The old one I like better I wish they made the new one look like him more

I miss my yes Teddy Ruxpin

Tony Pope voiced Newton Gimmick & the 1998 Furby!

Me too i grew up with the original 1985 teddy ruxpin phil baron will always be my childhood teddy ruxpin

I love that they made his eyes blue. I always loved blue eyes.

When I saw "origin story" I was half-expecting to find out that its Latin name is Theodorus Ruxpiniensis, and that he's a throwback descendant from something like Australopithecus. Or maybe an evolutionary bottleneck like that clown guy Ronald McDonald. Then again, he was more McDonaldopithecus. Oh well. Maybe his origin is more along mythical lines, like he descended from Eve, where instead of eating the forbidden fruit, she had eaten (and swallowed) all the chewing gum off the Wrigley's tree in the old 1970s ad before giving birth to HIM.

I think the new one is the old ones baby brother, that would make ALOT of sense. and both of them are ADORABLE :D

I wonder how many times the word "creepy" will be uttered in this comment section.... probably a lot and it's so cringe worthy. Long live Teddy Ruxpin! Haters mean nothing.

They r both sooooooo cute I LOVE TEDDY RUXOIN

The new one is so creepy. They tried this same thing with a new version of cabbage patch kid. I collect vintage cabbage patch kids & Those LCD eye CPKs are awful.

If it's an unairconditioned non-climate controlled facility, then it's not a good idea to keep them stored there. The extreme hot or cold temperatures could ruin those treasures, and all that wonderful material should be kept preserved as much as possible. If been restoring and repairing original WOW Teddy's off and on as a hobby for the last 15 years. I've done a few mickey's and Snoopy's too.

My pro & cons: Pro: People like see Teddy Ruxpin coming back, high tech, all Teddy Ruxpin story. Cons: Teddy Ruxpin outfit. You should keep same outfit just like WOW. LCD eyes! What wrong with mechanical eyes?

She's getting so big. Proud of you Bridget.

Thank you for the video.

i love teddy ruxpin

Why mess with a perfect look. Teddy Ruxpin is the cutest. The new one is....I dont like it.

I like the old

I wasn't expecting Teddy to have an Origin like this.

It’ll always be a shame to me that they went with something so hideously off-model along with all the other completely unnecessary & (IMO) ill-conceived changes they implemented (like it beginning with All About Bears rather than The Airship story and the bizarre dialogue & song lyric cuts) , rather than something that stayed true to the source material. It’s all literally there/in front of them. Why on earth would you ignore it or think of completely changing it? There was clearly a reason he was such a hit & stuck with people (myself included) to begin with, and lemme tell you, It wasn’t strictly/only the technology. Had they redesigned him to look nearly identical/as close as possible to his storybook illustrated appearance rather than stray so far from it (think something more like the costume in the 1986 tv pilot/special or how Garner Holt designed Chuck E. Cheese’s Studio C figure), nobody would have much of an issue with him. That, and if the company truly understood & respected the values, talent & qualities involved in making the characters & stories what they were, he would’ve continued to be as successful if not more than he was when he debuted in ‘85. Not to mention, it would’ve reflected in marketing, the problem is they marketed him the exact same way as every other animated talking toy on the market rather than focus on what made him ‘unique’, that being the storytelling aspect and specifically, the ‘type’ of stories he told. Sad. Nonetheless, the more historical aspects shown off here are great. I just wish that one day they’d do a return the right way and that their archives were stored & handled much better. (Think more along the lines of the Walt Disney Archives). But if not, I just hope that people can learn from this & in the future, nothing like what happened to Teddy after intially starting out so strong/great, ever happens again.

WAIT What Teddy Is Related To Chuck E Cheese OMG This Cannot Get Any Better I Love Chuck E Cheese!

Late to this party, but a sad thought just crossed my mind that made me tear up. (and I was in my 20s when Teddy came out when I was a pre-school teacher). I'm not sure if Phil Baron was putting on a special voice for Teddy, or if that's the way he actually talked in the 80s, but it seems that his voice has aged so much that no new Teddy stories can ever be made. They will just have to keep recycling the old ones. :o( I'm grateful I have 2 of them.

The best parts of this video are from 0:00 - 5:42

I never had one of these bears when I was child nor did I know he existed but he looks adorable and my 16 month old daughter seems rally intrigue by the KZfaq toy reviews I will definitely be getting him for

2:59 wow old cool

Awwwww! I had a Teddy Ruxpin when I was kid. He used to talk a the time....... Sometimes without the batteries..... it's a good thing that priest was living with us...........While Teddy was attacking the priest we were able to escape!!!🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

they should make the blue eyed one a new friend named chris or something, with a higher pitched, kid like voice. This new shape, lightening of the fur, and eye color change alters it from the original too much. The original was much better.

Yes! I had WOW Teddy Ruxpin & Grubby.

God bless your daughter, she’s so cute

I love the 1985 teddy ruxpin and the 2017 one I have the 2017 one and getting the 1985 one for Christmas

I loved him 2 and I still do💓💓💓

teddy ruxpin🐻

OMG! The CC rat, and TR look so similar now, I see it!

I like the old one better

I always wanted a teddy ruxpin, I still want one 😀😁😊

Why hasn't The Toys That Made Us done an episode on this.

I had one and I loved that guy 😂

Why blue eyes though? Should've stayed true to the brown.

Man, I would really like to get a closer at the teddy ruxpin prototypes...

I always watched the series when I was young, but I never had the toy, I wanted one though, I’m hoping to buy one soon, maybe I’ll find him in a thrift store or online, but since the one I want is WoW version, so it’s gonna be a long time before I get one My mom said I had one, I just don’t remember:/

If that was at a storage auction i would try my best to buy it

Always creeped me out ,evil bear

I'm going to by a 1985 teddy ruxpin with all 60 books and all the 60 tapes and grubby cord

I want a Teddy Ruxpin and also a Furby AND A Chuck E. Cheese plushy (in the mouse form)

I wish I could have been born back in da 80s

An automaton? Wow!

Come dream with me tonight... Oh Teddy Ruxpin :)

@BlueOctepede should see this

The new eyes doesn't match with the rest and let Teddy look like a science fiction movie robot.

The new one looks terrible.

2014 I was 3

I like animatronic toys like furbys,teddy ruxpin,furblitt and stuff by the way I liked my own comment 😅😂😊

60s was when Disney experimented with audio animatronics.

So it basically the second gen of teddy ruxpin

As an adult now but somebody who grew up in the 1980s and wanted a teddy ruuxpin the new design just looks creepy. The original just looked like a teddy bear I think they should just put the new beer with the original design and if they want LED eyes make them look like real eyes.

Who remembers the 2XL robot?

I have ths old one 😁

If you think teddy is creepy you have no life or soul

The new design isn't teddy I feel like it's a care bear rip off

NEXT TIME, COMPANIES SHOULD HAVE A DIFFERENT IDEA SO TEDDY COULD STICK UP!

Cool

I was 5 in 2014

I got the new teddy at my last trip to Toys R Us IT WAS ONLY FORTY DOLLARS💸💸💸

The new Teddy Rugspin looks weird. The eyes....

Teddy's past AND present, but what about his future?

I want an original 1985 teddy ruxpin where is that facility at ??????

The eyes is scary

I had a Teddy Ruxpin when I was a young lad, let’s say I believe the age 16years young.

The low-tech 1985 model is healthier than the blutooth model of 2017. Learn about how wifi affects kids' brains.

I have that

I hate the new Teddy. The original should've been remade the eyes are creepy and the outfit sucks.

I'm having nightmares for day's..

I'd say the digital eyes are a turn off just like when I saw the furbies flip over to digital eyes it didn't look right now if you look at the old let's go back a bit Buck Rogers TV series and you had doctor Theophilus was nothing but some blinking lights nothing special but it was how it functioned they gave it the life that people could understand with these digital eyes they're just not in a way they're not right and that's why they don't seem to have that correct feel that somebody's used to seeing one they're flat I don't care how much painting technique you throw in it they're flat eyes now if you were projecting and I onto a curved surface allowing natural light to shine off the curve of the eye and you use the digital Iris and of course move the eye a little bit to give it the appearance is looking around then you would have something that looks more normal to people but the flat eyes they're just creepy and I love horror but they're creepy it's different that's why almost every single Dolly teddy bear not all of them but a good majority of them have round eyes a couple of them you might see let's say Caroline or I forget what other movie there was where somebody used buttons from a coat for eyes but that still expressed a lot more than what the digital eyes could

Why are they storing these in a unit that isn’t climate controlled/air conditioned? 🤦🏽‍♀️

If y’all had that then you were a rich kid

Oh my God your daughter is destroying that beautiful Teddy Ruxpin doll!

Cool toys I know your secret just tell everyone it I know what you did TO TEDDY RUXPIN.

Brrr... I mean it was VERY revolutionary, but... he just freaks me out. The new one is a million times creepier, though.

🐻❤

The first loves nice, this one loves evil, sorry

I pefer the original teddy ruxpin

Anthony
