Eeyore..the donkey....

Eeyore is everyone's favorite delightfully dismal donkey. But Eeyore doesn't see himself as gloomy -- he just has low expectations. He expects nothing from anybody, so whenever his friends do come to his aid his expectations of the worst are overthrown, and he is sincerely grateful. Eeyore's tiny bright pink bow on his tail, the one hint of color against his gray, is a perfect symbol of the kernel of joy that occasionally surfaces in Eeyore. Though he may pretend he's helping because there's nothing better to do -- make no mistake, Eeyore is always there for his friends.

Debut: 1966 - Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree
Role: Melancholy stuffed donkey
Hobbies: Constantly losing his tail, moping about
Favorite Phrase: "It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it."
Note of Interest: The design of Eeyore has remained faithful to the original book version.

Info Bits about TIGGER...

Tigger is an exuberant, one-of-a-kind creature with the famously springy tail. He acts on every impulse, and his boisterous manner often leads him to leap before he looks. Tigger's bouncing is a pure expression of his utter zest for life -- a joy he's always eager to share with his friends, even when sometimes (especially with Rabbit), they don't want him to share it! His unique personality extends to his original use of language, which often results in his trademark twists of phrase and malapropisms.

Debut: 1968 - Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day
Role: Exuberant fun-loving stuffed tiger
Hobbies: Bouncing, causing mayhem, exaggerating the truth
Favorite Phrase: "The wonderful thing about tiggers is that I'm the only one."
Note of Interest: Despite proclamations that tiggers do things best, Tigger recants in the end each time.

Info Bits about PIGLET...

Piglet is a soft-spoken and skittish little fellow whose generosity and humility far outweigh his meager size. Still, he considers himself just "a very small animal." His fastidious movements, anxious wringing of hands, and occasionally stuttering voice ("Oh d-d-d-dear"), convey his nervousness and fear of the unknown. But inside Piglet's small frame is a big heart.

Debut: 1968 - Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day
Role: small, curious stuffed pig
Hobbies: eagerly experiencing the world, being a good friend to Pooh.
Favorite Phrase: "Oh, dear, oh, de-de-de-de-dear, dear."

Here's some info about our favorite disney character...

Winnie the Pooh, the lovable bear who's stuffed with fluff, is also called Pooh, or Pooh Bear, but never, ever, just Winnie. Pooh himself would tell you he is a "bear of little brain," but he also has an uncommon, clear-eyed wisdom. His friends; their happiness and feelings are Pooh's chief concern, and there is no better friend than Winnie the Pooh. Pooh endlessly craves honey or a smackerel of whatever little something is at hand to soothe that insatiable "rumbly in his tumbly."


Debut: 1966 - Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree
Role: Cuddly absentminded stuffed bear
Hobbies: Eating honey, always hungry
Favorite Phrase: "Do you have any honey?"
Note of Interest: Disney's Pooh was based off the Agnes Brush plush sold in the 40s and 50s.
