"... As a young boy I made my first penguin out of paper pulp (papier-mâché) and when it was dry I painted it black and white. For years this 20 cm high penguin lived on top of the cupboard in my childhood home. Unfortunately my apartment was destroyed in the 40's during the bombing of Helsinki and the penguin was lost in the mayhem of war. Now thanks to Magis I have again my penguin chick. The shape of the head and the profile with the cute beak have the right proportions and the eyes have the realistic almond shape characteristic to penguin chicks. This little penguin has perhaps had a little too much to eat and therefore has the round belly, but this particular rotund shape allows it to mimic the realistic waddling movement, which makes it so lovable and cute." - eero arnio
