Born in Osaka (Japan) in 1973 graphic designer Mori Chack created this most unlikely of cuddly animal characters when he was asked to come up with a cute bear - "I felt that the real bear wasn't like that. Then, I draw secretly a violent bear with same method of drawing as that cute bear. That was Gloomy. For me, he seems very natural, and livelier than other general bear characters which are tamed by human beings".
What's more shocking than just a wild bear is the fact that a lot of times he's shown attacking the little boy - Pitty - who rescued him when he was young. The blood you see on Gloomy Bear is there from literally scratching and biting the hand that feeds him.
Now, there's a whole range of Gloomy items. Here at dinkybox we've got some absolutely cracking keychains to begin with but keep your eye out for more from the anti-Yogi! |

Don't quite know which to choose? Opt for a sealed box and let fate make the choice for you :)
Please note that none of these figures are toys and as such they are not suited for those under the age of 3 due to small parts. Please also note that gloomy, despite being a keychain, is quite delicate and as such we would not recommend him for daily use (more display really).
Oops, all gone. Email wishlist@dinkybox.com and if we find more, we will happily let you know :) |
