Weekly Penguin

Weekly Penguin 35

Here he is; the original Pingu, the universally loved Swiss animation star. While back in 1989 Pingu was the final factor making me permanently a penguin fanboy, it wasn't until late 2007 I got my first official Pingu plush. For more information on Pingu and acute cute overload check out Pingu's Wikipedia entry. This original Pingu is not to be confused with our own Pingu the Funky Penguin – he is my first penguin plush toy I named after this fella.
