Russ Berrie Shining Stars Frog

I was given a Shining Stars Frog, and thought it would be wonderful to name a star after my son, who is in Heaven.However, when I went to the website "" to choose a star and give it my son's name, all I got was a screen stating that Russ Berrie had filed for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, and the website was no longer available.I cannot imagine the disappointment of children who are given this adorable frog, thinking they can name a star after themselves.As for myself, I couldn't be more disappointed I had pictured myself looking up at the stars at night, knowing that one of them had my son's name.

I paid almost $10 for this frog (and twice as much for the dragon) and we cannot register a star. Apparently shiningstars.com has had an issue with this and they aren't fixing it. I emailed them TWICE and they will not respond. Thanks for disappointing my child!

I think the idea behind "NAMING A STAR" is a very interesting concept to gift recipients.Contrary to some of the other "Shining Stars" animals in which I was disappointed in the actual product quality, the FROG seems to be well-constructed.

The draw for this toy is the ability to "name" a star with the International Star registry.I bought several as gifts and one for my son.The Russ Berrie, Inc company is currently in bankruptcy so the Shiningstars.com web site is not functioning.The plush is cute, but so disappointed that there is no way to register star name.

I guess I bought it because of the novelty of the star registry...Which is a great idea! I love that! However the plush toy is not that great quality it looks much better in the pic. But it's not that bad although I'm sure Russ could of made them better. But for the price I guess you can't ask for much. Overall ok.
