New Wombles cuddly toys from Past Times

 

A new range of Wombles cuddly toys is available, mainly from Past Times, the high-street and online store which sells unique and unusual gifts inspired by history.

There are three soft toys in the first set: Orinoco, Uncle Bulgaria and Madame Cholet. Click on the images to see larger versions.

They’re 20 cm high and have soft plush fur, with embroidered eyes, fabric faces and hands, and reinforced cardboard feet.

The toys are £14 each from Past Times, and you can order them online or buy them from your nearest store.

The high-quality toys are made by Posh Paws, and there are another three Wombles in the range - Tobermory, Bungo and Alderney - but they’re only available from a handful of other shops at the moment.

They were first spotted by Wombles fan Ali Joseph in the window of Worlds Apart, a comic and sci-fi shop in Liverpool (where they cost £9.99), who provided the photo below.

Update: All six toys are now available from Play.com for £9.99 each, due for release on 5 August.

Update: They’re now also available from Amazon and in-store at Waterstones.
