 Teddy
Ruxpin - A soft spoken, gentle bear-like creature (an Illiop) who starred
in 65 half-hour episodes on the DIC Enterprise children's daily animated cartoon
THE ADVENTURES OF TEDDY RUXPIN/SYN/1987. With the aid of his friends Newton
Gimmick, a stuttering inventor with round glasses (John Stocker) and Grubby (Wili
Ryan), an eight-legged caterpillar-like creature called an Octopede, Teddy
Ruxpin (Phil Barron) used an ancient map and a flying airship to search the
lands of Grundo, Octogonia, Rillonia and Ying to uncover the mystery of ancient
crystals.
Along the way, Teddy battled the sinister group M.A.V.O. (Monsters and
Villains Organizations) and their henchman Quellor and Tweeg. Teddy Ruxpin wears
a light tan tunic over a red shirt and red shorts. His fur is a light brown. He
has a tuft of hair between his ears.
TRIVIA NOTE: The series (which premiered as a
five-part syndicated series in 1986) was inspired by a cuddly toy bear with
moving eyes and mouth that was marketed with a unique long-playing audio tape
inside it's tummy The Teddy Ruxpin character was developed by Ken Forsse who
created the loveable Teddy Ruxpin for his children to teach them basic values.
