Title: Flocked Bunny Figures/Banks?
Post by: WordFuzion on Sunday 02 May 2010, 11:40 pm

I'm not sure if this straight up a toy, but I remember getting alot of flocked bunnies as a child for Easter. They were either greyish brown or white, and some where sitting up, other laying down and I think there were some smaller ones too. Personally, I used them as toys and they had their very own little wild rabbit colony across my desk, lol. I'm just wondering if they are able to be identified or are just too generic to get a descripton past "flocked bunny?"

Do you have a year estimate? Country? Have you ever found a picture of a toy that looked similar? I don't know much about some of the flocked toys but I'm sure that a lot of other people here do!

The years would be between 1982 and 1992 in the United States.

I remember those my cousin had one back in the 80s. I remember they also sold those through the Oriental Trading Co. catalog.

I have some similiar to those in the pictures that are Josef Originals. I thought they were older than the 80s because I got them from my mother.
I have a white bunny and brown bunny bank, a raccon, white and black dog, whale bank, pink rabbit, elephant bank and more.

I have added a new topic to the "Your collections" page titled "RDB Collection". I will put notices of updates on the "Your collections" page but here is a shortcut http://www.flickr.com/photos/49855104@N08/sets/72157623971655742/
The others are in a box somewhere - when I get the time to find them I will post. Hope this helps.

I had one of the brown rabbit banks. For some reason I keep thinking it was from Avon, though I can't find any proof on that. It just seems like I had a lot of stuff from Avon as a kid.
