I guess people don't know what exactly they can or should do as the members of Teddy Ruxpin community. If Mr. Baron was not interested in collaboration I would leave too, because Teddy was not part of my childhood. But Mr. Baron encouraged me - he loves Teddy, and he's a great actor, singer and person.

It's hard to contribute sometimes, which is why I don't post as much here as I would like.

I am a toy collector in general, so I contribute by sharing my knowledge (and I hate it when certain people won't share theirs). Having repaired many a talking toy, I also love providing repair advice and diagnosis if I can.

It's hard to contribute sometimes, which is why I don't post as much here as I would like. I started out to make duo versions of Teddy songs after watching fan videos on YouTube. People sing along with Teddy, but they don't have their own part in his songs. I recorded couple of demos and asked Mr. Baron to tell his opinion as professional actor and singer. Can we try to refresh Teddy songs? And do I have a talent? Mr. Baron replied yes to both questions, and this is how we started to collaborate.

nataliabarkhatova, how did you meet Mr. Baron?
To your first question, I assume you are not aware that Teddy Ruxpin is being re-released next year? I am sure Mr Baron is well aware of it.

Mr. Baron call himself as a very private person, it's a trait that helped him to become a member of clergy (synagogue). I emailed him last spring and he replied. We plan to do a concert in my homecity of Yekaterinburg next summer, maybe Josh Isaacson would like to travel along with Mr. and Mrs. Baron. I do know that Teddy will be re-released. :-) I try to promote him in Russian part of web.

How, he sounds so different now! I wonder if he can still do the Teddy Ruxpin voice...

youtu.be/7PKAQXYXTx0How, he sounds so different now! I wonder if he can still do the Teddy Ruxpin voice... He always sounded so, his voice was high-pitched. :-) He recorded a happy birthday greeting for me as a gift from "our friend Teddy" on August 11 (link above).

Mr. Baron shared his soul with Teddy, I think it's more important.

Mr. Baron uses Teddy voice while speaking from stage. It helps him to be heard and respected by listeners.

I like how now since he's older, Teddy now sounds a lot more mature and wise for his years.

I like it too. :-) It's a personal greeting and Mr. Baron put his own feelings in it.

We sound together like father and daughter and it's amazing. We hope that toy company will let us record duo versions of Teddy songs.

I recorded demos of duo versions of several songs: "Tiny Friend Of Mine", "Sheep Of Different Colors", "Come Dream With Me Tonight", "Give A Book A Look" and "Will You Go To Sleep Before I'll Do?". If someone is interested I can upload them on YouTube.
