Subject: looking for info on "sugar babies" stuffed animals, pic or otherwise
Written By: Piggyback on 04/22/04 at 12:40 am

I'm trying to locate a stuffed animal from my childhood but can't remember anything more than it was a gray cat that had a stuffed body but solid rubber face, hands and feet (like a Monchhichi but not a monkey). It was small, probably no more than 8" high.

I looked at the 80's toy list & found "Sugar Babies" listed but there is no picture available for me to see if that is what I'm looking for. I can't find anything through search engines either. I do not know the manufacturer or anything. It was around the early 80's that I had it so it's possible it's from the late 70's too.

Can anyone help me out with some info?

monchichi has a gray kitten with pink in the ears, maybe this is what you're looking for! Have you seen a monchichi-like raccoon with black stripes and ears? The raccoon also sucks it's toes and thumbs, probably early 80s. my girlfriend is about to pass out looking for it!

The only  Sugar Babies I know about were candies.  The were soft round caramel drops that came in a
bag.  They were a candy version of the Sugar Daddy lollipop.

This could be it, but have you seen a picture of it somewhere so I can verify if this is it? Even better if you know where I could buy it. I thought it was monchichi but I haven't seen any but monkeys. I never even knew they made a raccoon but I bet it's adorable! Let me know if there is any more info you can provide and I will let you know if I come across the raccoon. Thanks much!
