Petzi, the sailor bear turns 70!

Heunec - February 2021

The red dungarees with the white spots are unmistakable, as is the bright blue cap... This year Petzi, the famous sailor bear, turns 70. Since 1951, the animal hero of the popular children's TV show has been setting sail with his friends and regularly experiences the most amazing adventures. The likeable bear originally comes from Denmark, but it's hard to imagine German children's programming on ZDF and Kika without him. Always brave and friendly, sometimes a bit clumsy, Petzi delights boys and girls between the ages of three and eight alike.

As a long-standing license partner, Heunec offers the famous bear as a cuddly plush figure. As with all its cuddly figures, the family-owned company from Upper Franconia also uses only high-quality plush for Petzi. Like all Heunec products for children, the Danish children's hero also complies with EN71. And he also inspires with loving details: the 25 cm tall plush Petzi is exactly modeled on the one in the CGI episodes, so that smaller children in particular have a higher recognition value. Not only the famous dungarees, but also the funny face with the big bear ears are perfect. So Petzi has made the leap into the modern age perfectly in plush form and will certainly accompany countless children and adults.
