Cunard Bears

[napria]

Do the bears differ from ship to ship?  Are they always available in the shops or are they only there for special occasions or promotions? And do they only come in one size?

[Winifred 22]

They are all the same Bears just with the name of the ship on them. There are also different special edition ones wearing different outfits e.g. Prince’s Trust one. They are all one size. You can also get a dog with a QM2 kennel coat on and a generic cruise ship in plush fabric. All cost around 22$

Two Cunard bear examples.🙂

There is a thread started a couple of years ago, but fairly recently updated, here, which shows some examples of bears and pricing at the time.

Bought on Queen Anne last week $22.  Has QA on his foot.  They had others in the shop. Some wearing red waistcoat/white engineers outfit plus the dog one.

Are all Cunard bears wine lovers?

I’m not sure whether that is an indication of being a wine lover or of desperation.

I was hoping the bottle of wine was included with the bear for $22 😆

Nah

 

It's not that bad but some folk would say first prize is one bottle of P.A.. second prize is two!

 

I would go for the third prize and take three! Not too bad solo if very chilled but makes a great Kir Royale!

Teddy looks sloshed so probably finished it off on his [her?] own

It is $22 with a bottle of Pol Acker or if you don't want the Pol Acker it is $25 🤣🤣🤣🤣

To add to the litany of jokes, since he’s dressed in a maintenance outfit, he used the PA to scrape the ever-present rust off the ship…sorry, that was just waiting to be brought up.

Well I was excited today when I got to my fabulous solo cabin on QM2 to find 2 bottles of Pol Acker. Win for me as one of the minority on here who like it.

Very much to our liking.
