Honey Bear Family
In America the Honeybear family are known as the Huntington family. They are virtually identical, however the UK version had adults with open hands, whilst in America they had flat hands. A set of grandparents were also released and these were exclusive to America.
The family was first released in 1990, and the mother and father were in the larger bear size. The original babies were in the solid mould (you could not move their arms and legs).
In 2009 Flair re-released this family with the new-style adult mould, and sit/crawl twins. I believe this version on the family is exclusive to the UK. Also In 2010 in the Rainbow Nursery Figure Set, a new Honeybear standing baby was included. This is exclusive to the UK, and sadly the baby does not have a name.
I still need to collect the original versions of this family. Patience is a virtue, I hear. And so is money!
