Stuffed Bear Tapestries
Description: Monchhichi is a line of Japanese stuffed monkey toys from the Sekiguchi Corporation, first released in 1974. They were licensed by Mattel in the United States until 1985, and later distributed worldwide directly by Sekiguchi. Five television series were produced based on the characters: The Japanese anime series Monchhichi Twins in 1980, produced by Tokyo 12 Channel the American cartoon series Monchhichis in 1983.
Description: Popples were plush toys manufactured between 1986 and 1988. Each toy had a pouch on the back that could be inverted, so the character rolled into the pouch and resembled a brightly colored ball. Popples resembled colorful animals with long, pompom-tipped tails. The name "Popple" is a reference to the popping sound they make when unfolding themselves from such a ball, or pulling objects from their pouches. In the cartoon series of the same name, Popples commonly pulled large items from their pouches that could not possibly fit inside. In the "Popples Alley" episode, one of the Popples' human friends looks inside one of their pouches and sees numerous objects floating in a large void.
Description: The Popples Friendship Crew debuted in 1986 as part of a colorful plush toy line created by American Greetings and Mattel. These whimsical creatures featured bright fur, pompom-tipped tails, and a unique pouch on their backs that allowed them to “pop” into a ball shape. The Popples became a hit among kids and collectors, inspiring a Saturday morning cartoon series where they pulled oversized objects from their magical pouches and helped their human friends solve problems. The 1986 Friendship Crew lineup remains a nostalgic favorite, with vintage merchandise like T-shirts, posters, and plush toys highly sought after by fans of retro ’80s pop culture.
