Hello !

On the French forum Titi-chan in Wonderland, a member has posted a collection of his SNUGGLEBUMMS and there is a very strange one : an orange one with blue hair !

=> http://titi-chan-s-forum.heavenforum.org/t4763p15-les-bum-bum-de-renka-1-2#124217

I have never see this variation before, even on Ghostofthedoll...  ???

Cutely with blue hair, an interesting find! As I stated on my Snugglebumms page, I've heard there was a Fondly produced with pink rather than purple hair and a Spritly with darker blue hair, so this must be another variation to add to the mix.

Also it would be very easy to fake snugglebumm variations as the hair comes off easy and you can stick it back on well with copydex xxx Almost tempted to make me a  purple haired lightly :)

Also the ones you mentioned ghost could be achieved by sticking lightlys hair on fondly and happilys hair on spritely easy to do xxx

I have a few Snugglebumms where the hair is almost falling off. It seems to only be glued around the edges. Maybe someone swapped two and reattached the hair?

I'm pretty positive that's what it is Zuse but whilst theres a snugglebum thread active does anyone know anything about the odd shyly (picture on ghosts snugglebumm page x)

I agree that as Snugglebumm hair is easily removed any number of alternative versions could exist either by design or accident. I try to find as many packaged images as I can when researching and have never come across any of the colour variations mentioned.

The only true mystery is this one, of Shyly in a completely unique mould to the series:
