It’s a tale as old as time! When kids and adults need a special toy to cuddle, they reach for their nearest teddy bear. And, thanks to the folks at Build-A-Bear, Disney lovers can now get their fill of characters like Belle and the Beast. To celebrate the impending release of Beauty and the Beast, the retailer has just announced a new line of toys, and they will bring the iconic couple to a store near you.

The company will be rolling out bears based on the Beast and Belle before Disney releases their live-action musical adaptation in March. Two dolls based on the couple will be released, and bear lovers will even be able to dress up their dolls! One outfit will be available for each, and they were sourced straight from the animated classic’s beloved ballroom scene.

Beauty and the Beast is the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle.
