2020 Collection: Playful Penguins
Oh, how time flies when you’re having fun. Such is the case for the three playful penguins that began their adventures in 2001, all bundled up in hats and scarves, tobogganing down a snow-covered hill. Now, nineteen years later, the once airborne challenged buddies soar to new heights in their ice-sculpted plane. Who knows where they will land or what new experiences await them. But one thing, we know for sure, they will always be having fun!
Happy 19th Anniversary to one of the most beloved unofficial series of all-time!
