CynthiaRI Posted April 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Has anyone gotten the bears on the QM2? I'm thinking of getting some to meet my children when we board. (With the help of my travel agent.) I have heard there is an annual bear and a standard bear. Trying to decide if I get all them the same annual bear. Thanks!

Host Hattie Posted April 24, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Not a collection but I have the 2015 bear. They had some chef bears earlier this year on Queen Victoria, they were quite cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanky Lad Posted April 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 24, 2018 The latest bear is dressed as a chef. There is also Charles the bear to go with the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted April 24, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Here's a picture of the 2018 Chef Albert bear from Cunard's facebook page. "Introducing our 2018 Cunard Bear! Chef Albert honours the Cunard Executive Chefs who lead our galley brigade and prepare over 16,000 meals on board for our guests everyday. Albert is available to purchase on board any of our Cunard ships!" And here's a picture the 2017 Charles bear also from Cunard's facebook page. "Introducing... Charles, our exclusive 2017 Cunard Bear, named in honour of the Prince's Trust founder, HRH The Prince of Wales. A donation of $2 will be made from every purchase to the Prince's Trust raising funds to transform the lives of disadvantaged young people."

Hawaii136 Posted April 25, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I bought a 2017 Charles bear last year. As I remember there was also a generic bear. At any rate, i left Charles out, and when we came back from dinner, he was on the bed holding the chocolates and next days programs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB_NJ Posted April 27, 2018 #8 Share Posted April 27, 2018 How much in dollars are the bears, can OBC be used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted April 27, 2018 #9 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I can't remember, maybe $20 to $25, you can use OBC for any shop purchases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted April 27, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Not sure if the prices in the on-board shops are the same or if the special annual bears are more, but the standard Cunard bear listed for pre-purchase in Voyage Personaliser (where OBC does not apply) is $16.99.

bluemarble Posted July 2, 2018 #16 Share Posted July 2, 2018 During the recent QM2 Norway Fjords cruise, there was a "New Logo Launch" to introduce new Cunard and QM2 logo clothing and souvenirs. Among the items introduced are a "QM Teddy Gilet" for $22, a "QM Bulldog Plush" for $20, and a "QM Ship Plush" also for $20. Here are some photos of those items on the QM2 logo shop display cases, for those that may be interested in this additional Cunard bear and other Cunard plushes currently available on board QM2.

And also selling off things like stationery and magnets with the QE design. We waved to you on the QM2 in Southampton BTW and saw you following us for ages.

Rare babs135 Posted July 6, 2018 #24 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Got the pictures now and how cute. I know one person who will be travelling with us in January who may well be tempted to buy the teddy bears (and it's not me!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted April 22, 2019 #25 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I'm reviving thus old thread to add this picture of the 2019 annual Cunard bear named James on display in the QM2 shop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
