- —Combo card description
The Freedom Bear is a combo weapon in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. It is created by combining a robot bear with an LMG.[1]
The combination of the two weapons results in a turret-like weapon. When the player sets the Freedom Bear down on the ground, the toy will come to life, shooting at any and all zombies or hostiles around it. It is best used in congested areas.
This combo weapon is described as:
- "He may look like a cute and cuddly bear, but he is actually an automatic sentry gun. Plop him down and he will be your buddy, protecting the area and looking adorable."[2]

If you take a jumbo teddy bear and combine it with a machine gun, it turns into a sentry with a Rambo headband that you can place in congested areas, and it will mow down zombies with machine gun fire for what seems like hours."
