In the 1980’s the craze reached the Western world and there was nothing more precious to my younger brother than his cuddly Monchhichi monkey.Nostalgia now returns as I recently bought this brand new soft and fluffy monkey as a birthday present to my wife. It was a huge instant hit. Not so much with my wife but more with the children that adore the doll. Moreover, when she showed it to her friends they also ordered Monchhichi dolls again, each more impressive and more sizeable than the other.The 20 cm doll itself is a bit small, for for the rest as they have always been been; of good quality. Though after a lot of hugs you will find that that furry loses its very fine structure. This Monchhichi is wearing two small pink red bows in her pigtails a white pink bib, and occasionally sucks her thumb.Like in the 1970 there are even some clothes available for Monchhichi, we’re considering to buy some. And I already had to put in an order for a few more furry Monchhichi friends as the children continue to fight over this one.happy hugs!","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0","bestRating":5}},{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"A***R"},"reviewBody":"Just adorable little retro teddy!

You can wear a carabiner on hand and hang it on your waist I stuck to the details and made it. Size: 120 x 85 x 30 mm Material: Synthetic leather · polyester

Monchicchi is a line of Japanese stuffed toy monkeys 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. Three television series were produced based on the characters: The Japanese anime series Monchhichi Twins (Futago no Monchhichi) in 1980, produced by Tokyo 12 Channel (now TV Tokyo), the American cartoon series Monchhichis in 1983, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions, and Monchhichi in 2005, by Kids Station. The Monchhichi franchise is held by the Sekiguchi Corporation, a famous doll company, located in Tokyo, Japan. Monchhichi was created by Yoshiharu Washino on January 25, 1974, as an improvement to the already successful \"Kuta Kuta Monkey\" (Exhausted monkey) Sekiguchi claims they created these characters in order to inspire respect and love in the young (Japanese) children and adults, their name is derived from the words \"Mon\" which translates to \"Mine\" in French and \"Chhichi\" which closely resembles the sound a child's pacifier would produce according to Japanese phonetics, also the resulting word has a similar sound to the word \"Monkey\" in English.
