So i found this guy on ebay-kleinanzeigen (Something like craigslist in the US Area) the otherday, the Photo wasnt showing what it was exactly because it was uninflated, just up from the basement thrown onto the carpet and straight into ebay. And it looks quite unsual and uniqe, in fact, thats the first toy of that kind i see. It has printed hair on the head and the print all over is unidentified, i dont know what this is supposed to look like. It was made by Wehncke possibly in July 1993 or later, more on the dating below, but the design looks like it was made in 1976. It has one inner baffle and one chamber for the rest of the body and only small paws in front and bigger on the back. Also it smells like pipe tobacco or something.
Hint: If you need to date a toy from a german distributor, check for the Postleitzahl (Postal Code) printed below the company name. Like this one has "Wehncke D-37269 Eschwege" printed on it. This is a 5 digit Postal Code. The 5 digit postal code where introduced by the german post in mid 1993 because after the reunion with the former GDR (German democratic republic) and the FRG (Federal republic of germany) in 1989 we needed a new scheme to adress the "new" parts of germany. So if you have a toy that says "John GmbH D-8228 Freilassing", it was probably made before mid 1993.
