Teddy Ruxpin – $1,900
Most kids would want their parents to read them a bedtime story every night. Back in the ’80s, however, children could listen to a Teddy Ruxpin doll tell tales. The stuffed toy was able to do this using a cassette player at its back. To make it appear like a sentient being, it also features “blinking” eyes.
These days, it’s available on the market for around $500, as per Good Housekeeping. The vintage, unopened one, on the other hand, can reach as high as $1,900! Due to the popularity of this animatronic animal, an animated series was released in 1986.
