- How you doing? - Hey.

I'm doing good.

How are you?

Pretty good.

What do you have here?

I have a set of rare, un-produced

Care Bear Cousins from Kenner.

Oh.

Huh.

Hold on.

I actually have one of the Care Bears Cousins here.

Corey.

ALLISON: I'm here at the pawn shop today

to sell my prototype Care Bear Cousins.

This collection means a lot to me,

because I have been part of a semi-secret society

of Care Bear collectors for over 20 years.

COREY HARRISON: What do you want, Chum?

CHUMLEE: Look.

It's your cousins.

They're Care Bears.

Why aren't they bears?

Because the cousins are the animals.

They're the friends of the Care Bears.

What can you tell me about them?

Well, these are straight from the Kenner Morgue,

which was a place that they put Kenner

toys when Kenner shut down.

And so these are kind of seen as a holy grail.

Everything in that catalog was a holy grail.

COREY HARRISON: They look like they're fairly clean.

You know, you have, like, these plushes,

you have kids sleeping and-- - Yes.

COREY HARRISON: --drooling on them and everything else.

Well, these never made it out of Kenner.

Yeah.

In fact, if you look, they're hand-painted,

the nose and the eyes both, because these

original noses came from the factory with the 13-inch.

Now, this one in particular is the rarest

of the whole collection.

CHUMLEE: Is that the little pig?

ALLISON: That's the little pig.

His name's Treat Heart.

There's only four known to exist in the whole world.

COREY HARRISON: So what are you looking to do with them?

I want to sell them.

Any idea how much you're looking to get?

Well, I can tell you right now that this little piggy went for

six grand last year on auction.

And these are the only ones known to exist.

So I was thinking for the collection,

I'd cut you a break at, like, five grand.

Yeah, this is one of the few times

where I have absolutely no idea what this could be worth.

Do you mind if I have a buddy come down

and take a look at them?

Not at all.

OK.

Chumlee Bear, you want to go give him a call?

Sure.

ALLISON: I'm perfectly fine with a toy expert coming

in to evaluate my collection.

I know they're special items and that they're going

to go for quite a lot of money.

CHUMLEE: How you doing, Steve?

STEVE JOHNSTON: Good.

Care Bear Cousins. - Yeah.

CHUMLEE: We knew you'd-- STEVE JOHNSTON: That's cool.

CHUMLEE: --be the guy to call.

STEVE JOHNSTON: I was hoping I'd get you to do

the Care Bear Stare today.

Show me how to do it.

Could you show him how to do it?

Oh.

Love comes out of your belly.

I have a lot of love and a lot of belly.

So I'm probably pretty good at it.

So when it comes to origins of toys like this, what's

really unique is that these are actually

came from greeting cards.

American Greetings had created a line of cards--

get well soon.

And you had Grumpy, and he had a little cloud with rain

on his belly, and that was kind of, like, the first inception.

From about '84 to '86 is when you really saw the cartoon line

thriving, the movie comes out.

So it took a few years to get going, but once it did,

it was a pretty big piece.

And there was kind of like a cult following of Care

Bear collectors out there.

She seems like she knows a little something about that.

Overall, they all look like they're in great condition.

The eyes, the noses all look to be hand-painted.

And as for the pig you've got here,

now, the pig's really unique, because there's only a handful

of them known to exist.

Last I was aware, there was two or three of them that were

actually the painted versions.

There was one or two that was available that was unpainted.

Do you mind if I take a look at it just to--

ALLISON: Of course.

STEVE JOHNSTON: He would be a prototype.

He was never produced.

He was one that everybody wanted.

He's got a little bit of age in his legs.

I wouldn't say it's cracks.

We call it toy leprosy.

But still, for a prototype, being what he is,

he's in very, very good condition.

So I assume you guys asked me to come here to give you a value?

COREY HARRISON: I mean, I have no idea

what these could be worth.

STEVE JOHNSTON: I think, overall, you're

going to have no problem for the plush getting $1,400 for them.

The pig is a little bit different.

I believe that that's a much more rare toy.

There's going to be a little bit different of a market for it.

I think that you'll have no problem getting $3,000 for him.

Hopefully that helps you out.

- Thanks for coming in. - Thanks, Chum.

Corey-- - Appreciate it, man.

--thank you. Good luck.

ALLISON: Thank you.

So what do you think?

Chum, I'm going to go ahead and let you handle this.

Have a good day.

All right. CHUMLEE: All right.

I'm going to Care Bear Stare right now

and try to get you to the price I want.

ALLISON: All right.

He gave you a number--

$4,400.

So I'm thinking $4,400.

That's going to be a little too high for me.

How about 22?

Oof.

That's tough.

I don't think a Care Bear would approve of that.

22.

This is Chumlee Bear, and I'm spreading love and joy.

OK.

How about 3,500?

And that's giving you such a deal.

How about--

31?

All right.

You got a deal.

CHUMLEE: All right.

3,100.

Meet me at the counter and we'll write it up.

ALLISON: All right.

I'm thrilled that the guys and I were able to make a deal today.

I didn't walk away with the five grand I was hoping to have.

But $3,100, I can get a pretty good little junker car

for my 16-year-old daughter.
