Trying to find my boyfriends childhood toy. PLEASE HELP ME!!

[bapti101]

Hello! I am personally not Ukrainian but my boyfriend is. He moved here when he was 10 years old which was about 10 years ago. He is now 20. He often talks about this rabbit that he had when he was very young that his father bought for him when he was born. When he left to move here with his mother he left the rabbit behind and I know the chances of finding that rabbit are very very slim I would love to find one like it. I am willing to pay almost any price for it as long as it's in good condition. He described it to me very simply and I've seen a picture of it. It was just a fluffy rabbit with two beedy black eyes, he was orange and wore a shirt of some kind. This rabbit would be from 20 years ago the year 1990/1991. Anyone who knows of such a rabbit or knows where I might be able to look please, please help me.

Thank you!
Katharine

Consider getting him a collectible, grown-up version, Stieff instead. This one is 17" orange w/a red vest.

A cute Rabbit! Costs a fortune!
Probably, what Catherine wants is a well-used good old Soviet-made rabbit?

[bapti101]

yes!! I want to find one like that. If i can get it more reasonable i will. But basically like that.

[bapti101]

This is his rabbit. Now that i look at it it resembles a bear

Steiff is not a cheap product. As long as they are tagged and numbered, they appreciate every yr. In 10 yrs, your $200 gift will very likely be valued at minimum $2,000+.
