In my (admittedly probably biased) opinion, he’s one of the cutest birthday bears! He’s soft, I really love the face shape all the birthday bears have, and the blue really goes well with the rainbow. I would maybe suggest checking the elastic on the ruffle if you wanted to buy one though? The elastic can sometimes get too old and lose its stretch, and while you can easily take the ruffle off (it’s attached by just one little loop of thread in the back) the bears look much nicer with them on to me personally.
