A ‘We Bare Bears’ Themed Christmas in M’sia That’s Breaking a Nationwide Record?! Here’s What We Know!

We’d be lying if we said we don’t love ‘We Bare Bears‘. EVERYONE loves We Bare Bears, right? In fact, if you’re reading this article right now, we’re willing to bet you’re 110% a We Bare Bears fan too.

Well, if you are, then you’re going to love what we’re about to tell you…

A We Bare Bears themed Christmas is taking place in Paradigm Mall and it’ll feature a gigantic Christmas tree completely covered in 1,202 We Bare Bears plushies!

As if that wasn’t cool enough, this uniquely decorated, first of its kind tree will be setting a new record in the Malaysia Book of Records with the most number of We Bare Bears on a Christmas Tree. The tree is more than 26 feet tall by the way! You’ve definitely never seen THIS many Grizzly, Panda or Ice Bear plushies in one place. UwU
