Every year from 2021 (except for 2022 which I skipped) to 2025, I've done a 'May the 4th Be With You' post featuring this series of small Kinder Egg figurines from Ferrero.
I've had these for years, but never got around to photographing the set until now. The complete set consists of 10 figures, a Landspeeder, and a puzzle:
The set came out in 2002 and was based on a popular series of Kinder Egg figures called the 'Happy Hippos' (of which I have few as well). Everything but the puzzle is made of a hard plastic and, for the most part, does not require any assembly. Size-wise, they're in the 35mm-40mm range. I believe this represents the entire range of products, but I'm always on the lookout for any others I may have missed.
