WOW !!! You found the extremely rare and charming old Bullyland cave bear

This one and the cave man from the same period are so rare that some collectors think they were never made

What a great find ! Congratulations

Just look at these two. Aren't they sweet?

I have this one because of you Susanne and it is still a highlight in my collection, one of the Susanne's corner star

The K&M polar bear is also very interresting Dutch Bear

I am surprised you speak so highly of the cave bear.
I think it is quite cartonish and surely not one of my favorites.
Not the best Bully, nor best cave, nor best standing figure.

I think you should left for a while the best cave and check what is happening [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

It is absolutely not realistic and very far from my mainstream collection tradition of course, but Susanne helped me to discover how beautiful it is. It is very toyish but it has a lot of charm, it is a great toy with a childhood feeling like hot chocolate and biscuits. I have a few models like that, watch for example [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. This bear is for sure one of them

The only thing missing in that collection now is a live bear...

I only wish...
But this week i did get to go see the two panda's we have here in a zoo in the netherlands.
Beside panda's there are 11 brown bears, 2 sun bears and 3 polar bears i think.
It was a beary nice day out.

This never happened to me ....and I have many orders from Aliexpress...
..except if it`s from 4 different sellers..
It is very strange for a seller to send 4 models separately, because he pays every time for shipping..

Well, Bear 1, the sleeping flat one, was out off stock, but was sent from diferent warehouse location, and arrived here first.
Now Bear 2 and 3, the brown and panda, still had not been send then, but they arrived today together after two weeks.
So i hope number 4 is on his way.
I dont mind waiting long time, I am just impatient. I will give the seller a bit more time.

I see ,
did you write to the seller, that the bear number 4 is not with the other two ?
I hope, the seller didn`t forget to put it with the others...
You can write him any time before the order to be closed.
Also you can open a dispute if you are not satisfied with something..
About waiting for so long....it is normal, because it is China :)
Normally I`m waiting more then a month (sometimes almost 2) for orders from there..

Do not be TOO patient !
Once I waited and waited, and when at last I gave up and complained, it was too late, and I could no longer complain.
I think it was because it was after the estimated shipping time

I was about to message the seller, but I got a tracking message this morning, so there is still something on its way.

Very rare catches , congratulations :)
