You know, I intend to photograph it the minute it comes out of its box, so you guys will know exactly when I get it and what's going on with him. I sure hope they send me the right item

I'm sorry, I didn't notice all your posts, TG, I was busy pm'ing right and left ;)
Will do, will do. The minute I get the panda, I'll hit the toy stores around here until I find something. Worse case scenario, I beg my friend who has a sewing machine to make one (or two ;) but if I get nowhere with that, I'll let you know that too so we can make another decision.

Can't wait

Thanks, guys. I'll let you know.

I went to Toys R' Us in Marin County the other day and I stopped to be sure they weren't BS'ing me, but they were right, pandas were all gone.

see for yourselves (no pandas in there!!):

A good thing I ordered online!!

I have a little Dachshund beanie baby I keep in my car ... his name is Frank. I laughed for about 15 minutes when I read the tag and decided I had to have him as a full-time co-pilot in the Yaris lol

That's crazy that all the pandas were gone .... it must be a conspiracy ..... :)

Just got a tracking number for Bambo II!!!
I can't believe it took them that long to get him out of the warehouse and on the road!! Well, he's on his way to California now.

Woot! Now he just needs a shirt. And a name.

Let's do a 1 week suggestion period followed by a weeklong poll to name him.

My suggestion?

Bambu
