 TAOTRS-Teddy Ruxpin Character Profiles-Teddy Ruxpin
Teddy isn't just what TAOTR was based on, named after and revolved around but he was what made the other characters adventure as well, so without him, none of the adventures would have ever took place, M.A.V.O would probably have the chrystals and Tweeg would be an apprentice member.
Teddy Ruxpin appealed to persons of all ages, from Grandfathers watching with their grandchildren to the babysitter who watched while the toddler sat in front of the T.V. in awe.
Teddy was set to his purpose, never to let M.A.V.O or anyone else evil get their hands on the chrystals, and in the end he almost suceeded, the only Chrystal he ended up losing was the one from Quellor's fl box.

That is the feeling Teddy Ruxpin brings back to me. This was the first cartoon series that slipped into my young mind and brought me the introduction to a lovely human-created fantasy world containing rare species of animals living in a world a young kid only can dream about.
