At the most uncharitable, you could call this series [[TMS]]'s (late) answer to ''[[The Littl' Bits]]'' (as ''The Littl Bits'' came out in 1980, this did not came out until 1985), but it's more accurate to call it Disney's/TMS's attempt to show how to do the premise ''right'' (as ''The Littl Bits'' does have its fans). Apart from obviously lavish animation, the series addressed the major complaints of [[Tatsunoko]]'s series and the basic ideology of the 1980s; for instance, individuality is celebrated in proper proportion to the value of cooperation and the primary characters are far more nuanced with carefully considered flaws and strengths. Furthermore, the female characters avoid [[The Smurfette Principle]], with multiple characters with strong well-defined personalities who bow to no one.
 
If you're wondering how they came up with a premise for, of all things, ''Gummi Bears'', as the story goes, Michael Eisner was inspired when he was [[wikipedia:Gummi bear|snackinghis son onrequested them]]. True story, straight from [[That Other Wiki]].
