How’s this for a wonderful thing? I’m just going to paste the contents of the notecard that came with this:

“Friendship Bear” 2012 Edition

In celebration of his 9th year as a Second Life resident, Damien Fate has recreated the first object he ever created in SL, the original prim “Friendship Bear”.

Please pass this bear freely to all your friends and give it a loving home!

Bear design inspired by the works of Lou Rankin.

Here’s Damien’s post on his blog about it :)

This is an absolutely adorable, 1-prim mesh bear with a holding animation (you can rez it out in-world, too), and it’s been given freely to the residents of Second Life, to share among their friends. It’s copy/transfer, so you can give as many as you like to those that you love. Thank you, Damien! <3

I’ve put him out on the freebie wall in the Del Mar Store, so hop over and pick up a big, fluffy hug for you and all of your friends! :)

Update: He’s also available on Marketplace!
