I hope it’s okay if I share my gripe here, but I’ve been trying to figure this out for Y

I hope it’s okay if I share my gripe here, but I’ve been trying to figure this out for YEARS! We had an animatronic bear in our mall’s Christmas display named Jingles, and it would interact directly with shoppers via a performer on a mic off set. She could move her mouth, blink, and I’m almost certain she could move her head around but my memory is a bit hazy on that. Any info would be great! The figure was around from roughly the late 80’s-to early 00’s. I’ve always been convinced it was too nice of a figure to have been designed locally, and some recent photos I found of other bears similar to ours confirm this. The closest I’ve come to a manufacturer would be The Becker Group…but it’s a bit difficult to find any past history on their work. Any information about these figures would be great! Bonus points for old Catalog pics, or just any pictures for that matter! Thanks for the submission @reed-fink. How cute! The shopping malls near me used to have quite a few animatronics at Christmas too, in particular I remember a Humpty Dumpty animatronic that sang Christmas songs such as ‘Silent Night’ but I’ve never been able to find any information or even pictures of this Humpty Dumpty and it’s been bothering me for years. So it’s great that you have pictures! and I hope we can find some more information for you. I’ve had a quick look online and can’t find anything but I’ll keep looking. Anyone remember this bear?or know anything about it? or have any pictures? If you do please let us know! -- source link
