Christopher Robin & Friends

Winnie Poo-Winnie Poo side-8″ Vinyl Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day. Ashton-Drake provided the following information on the set:

“Once upon a memory, a little boy heard what he thought was a call for help over the blustery wind. Being a young adventurer who deeply cared about his friends, he grabbed his slicker and rainhat. Out he went in search of his friends to muster them out of the bluster. When all were safe and sound and the storm had subsided, everyone celebrated with a jolly bluster-less party!

For over three-quarters of a century, two names have kept the young and the young-at-heart in thrall with their sense of wonder and imagination: Winnie The Pooh(R) and Madame Alexander(R). And now, here’s the perfect combination of the two-here, for your enjoyment, is Madame Alexander’s(R) delightful “Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day(R).” It’s a charming 8″ Madame Alexander(R) Christopher Robin and his four plush friends, all ready to take you on exciting adventures in The Hundred Acre Wood, avavilable through Ashton-Drake. “Winnie The Pooh and the Blustery Day” sets our friends right in the middle of one of their favorite stories. Christopher Robin is all decker out in his yellow chintz slicker and rainhat and brown leather boots, just built for bluster. Underneath, he wears a blue and white gingham shirt and blue shorts. And at his side are his four plush friends: bouncy Tigger, wistful Eeyore, precious Piglet, and, of course, the bear-0f-the-hour. Winnie the Pooh himself. 

Christopher Robin is fashioned of hard plastic in the classic style that is Madame Alexander(R), with handsome blue “sleep” eyes and silky blond hair. Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore are practically collectibles in themselves: delicately designed miniature plush characters with intricate details that will delight you.”

I received the dolls as a Christmas gift in 2004.
