The Honey Bear Family
FATHER BERTIE HONEY BEAR is the miller of Sylvania, working in the Field View Mill, making lots of different flour. Being a very friendly fellow, he gives bags of flour to all his visitors and as a result he has lots of callers.
MOTHER TAMSIE HONEY BEAR makes the most of her husband's skill as a miller, baking the most wonderful cakes and puddings in her kitchen. She likes to use lots of tasty fruits and berries in her creations.
BROTHER DIGGORY HONEY BEAR always helps his father deliver the sacks of flour around the village of Sylvania on Saturdays. He's getting very big and strong doing all this physical work!
SISTER KATY HONEY BEAR loves collecting ingredients for her mother's pies. Every day she fills a small basket with fruit and berries from the hedgerows on her way home from school.
TRIPLETS JEREMY, LUCY AND FREDDIE HONEY BEAR are known as the 'Terrible Threesome'. They are always making a noise and being naughty. The only time these three little monsters are quiet is when they are listening to their bedtime story or watching children's hour on TV.

UNCLE HORACE HONEY BEAR loves his honey. Which is why he set up business producing the honey for all of Sylvania. He keeps a hive of bees at the end of the garden at Field View Mill. He spends hours in the garden, chatting to the bees in the hive to get great honey. He has offered to teach his nephew Diggory the art of beekeeping, but Diggory does not seem too keen on the idea!
UNCLE BERNARD HONEY BEAR drives the village ice cream van, working alongside the Beaufort Polar Bears. He loves his job, driving along the roads of Sylvania, with 'Greensleeves' playing to alert everyone that the ice cream van is on it's way.
UNCLE GEORGE HONEY BEAR is the village paramedic, working alongside his best friend Thomas Nightingale. It's a very important job, driving the ambulance around Sylvania and attending any accidents. Thankfully nothing too bad ever happens in Sylvania.
The Honey Bear family were originally released in the UK in 1990, as an exclusive family available only by collecting tokens and sending off for them. They were made using the large bear mould (You can read up about them under the Huntington Tan Family). They were eventually given a relaunch in 2009 by Flair, but using the smaller bear mould. Their clothes were also similar to the original 1990 family. In 2011, an uncle was added to the family, as part of the new farm range, he was the beekeeper. Two more uncles were released exclusively with vehicles. These figures were pre-packed into the box, and the buyer only found out who they were upon opening the box.
