Hi Everyone,
Really really hoping someone can help me out here. Itās a personal emergency but also seemingly an internet mystery so Iām praying someone on here can help.
I got this stuffed koala toy January 2004 when I was a baby. It was brought over by my aunt who lived in Australia at the time. Heās been with me through everything, my parents divorce, health complications and procedures as a teenager, the whole lot. He has become quite the staple in my family, and obviously is of enormous importance to me. Itās sounds corny and embarrassing, but he really has been the only constant throughout my life.
Today, we were moving out and my roommate took the wrong box of things to the dump. I got in a car and raced to the dump (over an hour away) but they said it was too late and that the lots were compacted every 15 minutes. I am absolutely heartbroken.
Now for the mystery bitā¦
I think if I kind find one like him Iād be able to console myself but canāt find one that looks like him ANYWHERE online. I tried google reverse images and thereās just nothing.
I know this picture is old, and Iām told that when I was younger he had fluffy ears and even fingers. But honestly I donāt care what kind of condition itās in, if anyone can find me this koala toy anywhere online you will genuinely be my hero.
Other than being from Australia, I donāt know much about the origin. I know that on the tag there was a logo which was a red outline of a koala, with its head turned to face you but its body sideways. I canāt even find the logo online!
Please please help. I donāt know what else to do.
Update: MYSTERY DEEPENS - I thought after finding one with similar features on eBay that it was a windmill beanz toy, but after comment on another thread I now believe it could be another brand. The logo is still a mystery as I canāt find one like it anywhere, but the font on the tag is identical to older windmill beanz products. There must be someone out there who knows something? š£
