before Rilakkuma…
even before Tarepanda…
there was a little brown bear named Pinny-Mu!
According to legend (or this website) Pinny-mu was born on a cold day back in 1987. He lives in peaceful and natural Woody Town, enjoying his days with friends Poe the penguin and Nap the mouse. While this bear may seem just cute and cuddly apparently he enjoys living life to the fullest with hobbies including taking risks and climbing trees.
He’s also quite sporty, excelling in both soccer and tennis! This ain’t no relaxed-bear!

However, seems like life is not always just sports and outdoors, Pinny-Mu has also been featured as “Today’s Coffee Break Man.” Who wouldn’t enjoy a cup of joe with this joyful fellow!
While just in his early 30s, its seems Pinny-Mu has been out of the stationary biz for a while (hey, Hello Kitty is still going strong in her late 40s!) However, if you do a little digging you can still find some Pinny-Mu products for sale on auction sites like ebay. Def a must have for any San-X aficionado!
