WEREBEARS - THE CASSETTE COLLECTION

4/23/2016

The WereBears were a series of teddy bears released in 1983 in the United Kingdom. They were created by George Nicholas, a muralist and managing director with Impact Murals, philanthropist and director of his charity Art For Their Sake, cartoonist, animator, and author, so that boys could have teddy bears without worrying about being bullied.

our bears were originally released in 1983. The bears were named Grizzler, Howler, Fang, and Gums. Each bear came with a story tape narrated by Oliver Postgate of Bagpuss fame, with one side explaining how the WereBears came to be and the other telling the individual bear's own adventure. In 1986, another line of teddies called the TerrorTeds were created. A fifth WereBear named Growler was released the same year.

I noticed something was missing here regarding the growler tapes, this seems incomplete.

I distinctly remember there being a longer story for Growler and how he was created, the tape began with Baron egon baconburger doing stuff and he is up all night "my eyes will feel like boiled eggs" was a line i could not forget from my childhood lol.

These files pick up after Growler has just been made.

I am looking for the rest of that story, but the rest of the files were awesome, as i only owned growler, sadly my cassette was probably lost when i moved house.

If anyone should find the file pls let me know.

Hi Alison, would you consider copying the cassette for me? Or selling the original?
Nostalgia here I come hopefully!

Hi I would have no idea the best way about copying it. I would be so worried about breaking it.

The Grunt cassette is incomplete here.
Does anyone have one that could be copied or know where I could find the full audio.
