Disney Behind the Scenes: Lots-O-Huggin’ Bear

Meet the characters of Toy Story 3Disney Behind the Scenes: Lots-O-Huggin’ Bear!

READY TEDDY GO!

MEET LOTSO…

Full Name: Lots-o’-Huggin’ Bear

Occupation: Strawberry-scented plush toy

Talents: Great at hugging and hiding sinister secrets

Year Made: 1983

Description: Lotso was an extremely popular and top-selling toy in the early 1980s. This jumbo, super-soft teddy bear is incredibly cute and cuddly – and he releases a sweet strawberry scent when you hug him dearly. Nobody can refuse a cuddle from this huge, happy and huggable bear!

Special Features: Brightly-colored pink and white plush coat; unique strawberry scent; soft, huggable body; velvety purple nose; expressive eyebrows; and charming smile

Wear And Tear: Uh-oh… This bear’s been around the toy block a few times! Lotso may smell of strawberries, but this plush plaything is well-worn.

Fast Fact: This teddy specimen is a little dirty, but the Lots-o’-Huggin’ toy range is actually stain-resistant. Spot clean the plush surface with a damp cloth to remove stains. Simple!

Did You Know? Lotso was accidentally left behind when his original owner, Daisy, fell asleep at a family picnic. He trekked for miles – and even hitched a ride on the back of a Pizza Planet truck – to get back to his loving owner. However, when the tearful toy eventually arrived home, he discovered he’d been replaced by a new Lots-o’-Huggin’ bear. Sob!

Disney Behind the Scenes: Lots-O-Huggin’ BearCurrent Owner: Sunnyside Daycare (after being deserted by Daisy, Lotso soon hit the big time when he stumbled across Sunnyside Daycare. Here, it’s hugs-a-go-go from the charming children in the Butterfly Room)

Original Owner: Daisy

In A Nutshell: A strawberry-scented sweetheart with a sinister-yet-furry underbelly… Gulp!
