Curly the Bear was released in June of 1996 and was retired at the end of 1998. This brown cuddly guy has black button eyes and a larger black button nose. He dons a dark red ribbon tied around his neck.
Right now, Curly the Bear is being hawked on eBay for a number of different prices. This seller is asking for $45,000 for Curly, noting that there are “many errors” with this Beanie. Meanwhile, another seller is asking for just $0.99, except this model doesn’t appear to have any flaws, making it less unique.
