[ID: My Animal Kingdom] Stuffed Toy Magazine (animals) part-works
« on: Thursday 24 July 2014, 12:14 am »
Hi all!

Around 2004/2005 (can't confirm this, it was too long ago for me to remember. But I was still a kid at the time)
It was a part-works magazine series. I think it was issued weekly.
In every magazine was a different plush animal with its baby (smaller sized). I think the series also had a hard-back book with it? I clearly remember polar bears and giraffes. I believe I still have them in the house somewhere.

I think the series was British, though I'm not 100% sure.
Haven't been able to find anything about this part-works.

One other detail I can't confirm is that I think when you subscribed, you got a large boat for the animals to go on like Noah's Ark. I think it was cardboard?

I've looked on ebay and it's not 'Boyds Bears' or 'Beverley Hills Bears co'.

I'm hoping someone has an idea or remembers this series.
It's been years now and just want to finally put a name to this!

Found one of the polar bears. No tags were ever on it.
The head is on an angle.

want to note. It isn't this magazine series



It's similar. But the mag series I'm looking for, was not based off a fiction book series. It was a fact series about the animal in question each magazine.

Wow! Thanks so much! I went on a selling site and found nearly all of the complete set. I'm sure there were some other animals as well, such as a giraffe.
The polar bear I have is in this picture. I do remember they did give the animals names.




Thanks so much! End to a mystery for me!

und they are by the brand deagostoni. I'm familiar with them because I've collected partworks off this brand before.
I've also found other animal pictures! Pictures will be in this post.
