Kids of the '80s will instantly recognize this little dude. Teddy Ruxpin was the bestselling toy in the USA for two years running in 1985 and 1986. He was no ordinary teddy bear, either. Teddy Ruxpin's mouth would move while he was reading stories - an amazing technological achievement for the time! All parents had to do was pop in a cassette tape (into the cassette deck built into his back), turn on Teddy, and away he went while the kids followed along with the book.
Teddy Ruxpin had a bit of a revival back in 2006 and won the Animated Interactive Plush Toy of the Year. But collectors aren't so interested in the 2006 version of this talkative bear. People are on the hunt for the original Teddy Ruxpins of the 1980s, and if you have one, you could rake in up to $400.
