If anyone remembers Mario RPG's Bowser's Spike Ball's Timed Attack, that's basically what I'm going for except with throwing a teddybear instead of a spiked ball...
Would prefer the bear to be sideview (using a SBS) so when it hits the enemy it looks like it's hugging them (and then the spikes burst out)
Relevant image and partial-inspiration (except I'd like red eyes to match the character design):
