Fuggler Care Bears: Creepy-Cute Plush Collectibles

Fuggler Care Bears are a delightfully twisted fusion of ZURU’s “funny-ugly” plush brand Fugglers and the beloved, rainbow-filled world of Care Bears. Released in late 2025 and early 2026, these plush toys combine the soft, squishy charm of classic Care Bears with the mischievous, slightly menacing features that Fugglers are known for. Each bear features crooked, human-like teeth, vacant or mismatched button eyes, and quirky expressions that seem to say, “I’ll hug you… then plot your mischief.” The result is a playful, creepy-cute plush experience that appeals to collectors and nostalgia enthusiasts alike.

“The chaos just got cuddly.” The Fuggler Care Bears are designed for display, sarcastic shelf smiles, or anyone who enjoys plush with a side of playful menace. In the world of stuffed animals, these bears prove that sometimes the best hugs come with a hint of havoc, making them a standout addition to any quirky collection.

Meet the Fuggler Care Bears

• Cheer Bear: Reimagined with a delightfully chaotic twist, Cheer Bear keeps her signature optimism but adds a mischievous edge, complete with a crooked, toothy grin that makes every hug a surprise.
• Grumpy Bear: Sporting his trademark moody attitude, Grumpy Bear comes to life with a fur-midable, toothy smirk and mischievous eyes, blending cranky charm with the unsettling humor of the Fuggler style.
• Share Bear: This once-sweet, generous bear gets a chaotic makeover, sharing everything from unusual treasures to questionable snacks, making cuddles a hilariously unpredictable experience.
• Togetherness Bear: Transformed into a tie-dyed, slightly eerie version, Togetherness Bear embodies unity with a quirky, unsettling flair, perfectly capturing the playful yet creepy essence of the Fuggler collaboration.

Standing 9 inches (22cm) tall, the Fuggler Care Bears are a paradox of adorable and alarming design. Each plush maintains the comforting softness of a traditional Care Bear but adds distinctive Fur-midable features, such as wonky teeth, off-kilter eyes, and the infamous “BUTT-on hole” at the rear. These details give each bear a unique personality, making them as amusing as they are unsettling. The Fuggler Care Bears are perfect for display, conversation starters, or collectors who enjoy plush toys that defy traditional cuteness.

The Fuggler Care Bear collection reimagines fan-favorite characters with a delightfully dark twist. Cheer Bear, for example, sets a “trap” for hugs—you may squeak in surprise, but the bear insists on a cuddle. Share Bear is infamous for sharing everything from cold fries to chewed gum, bringing a touch of chaotic humor to your shelf. Grumpy Bear spreads fart clouds and complaints, proving that grumpiness can be surprisingly fur-bulous. Togetherness Bear comes in a tie-dyed design, a colorful whirlwind of cuddly chaos that celebrates unity in all its unpredictable forms.

Targeted at teens, adults, and collectors with a taste for creepy-cute and darkly humorous plush, the Fuggler Care Bears blend nostalgia with offbeat fun. They are ideal for anyone looking to add a playful twist to their stuffed-animal collection or for those who enjoy quirky, conversation-starting collectibles. The bears have quickly gained popularity within the “creepy-cute” trend, appealing to fans who appreciate intentionally funny-ugly designs that challenge traditional notions of cuteness.

Fuggler Care Bears are highly collectible, especially the rare “chase” versions featuring the cheeky button-on-the-butt detail. These plush toys have become must-have items for collectors, frequently sold through major retailers like Showcase and Walmart, and widely shared in online collector communities. Reception has been overwhelmingly positive, with fans describing them as “delightfully disturbing,” “hilariously unsettling,” and “so wrong they’re fur-bulous.”
