As a kid i used to watch a teddy ruxpin movie all the time but i could swear that it was NOT animated. however, i've been searching online and cannot find anything that indicates that there was indeed a movie of teddy ruxpin that was NOT animated.

i remember there being a map that they had to follow and possibly a hot air balloon although that one i maybe mixing up with another movie. there was a map though if that helps any.

does anyone else recall this or is there any information i can get on this?

I can help! I used to have a Teddy Ruxpin when I was growing up! There was a TV show called "The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin" that WAS animated, and that ran from 87 to 88. There's nothing I know of involving T.R. that wasn't animated, at least not tv-wise, so there probably wasn't anything made like that. The first 2 volumes of "The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin" are out now--not sure where to find them--and the others aren't going to be out for awhile. Hope this helps some!

Also, you are right about the hot air balloon....that's how they got around when they were looking for the Treasure of Grundo.

I had the doll with a tape so you would put in the cassette and he would talk along, and later they came out with a VHS and it wasn't animated so you're not crazy, I think I still have it somewhere, but I don't recall the name off hand. But it does exist! there was a little blonde girl with glasses in it!

Can I just point out that the doll was actually made first and the cartoon was then made on the back of it's success, thus it would make sense that the videos that came with the doll would not be animated!

Oh, and that I knew one of the animators who made the cartoon with Jim Henson! Check me out name-dropping! Ha ha!
