The most popular character in the Disney classic is Simba, who will return to children’s rooms with the launch of Steiff’s Limited Edition. Together with the Walt Disney Company, Margarete Steiff GmbH is dedicating a counterpart made of the finest gold blonde mohair to this protagonist.

Limited Edition “The Lion King”

The small cuddly companion is 24 cm tall and strictly limited to 1,994 pieces. Of course this Steiff cuddly toy also has the famous “button in the ear”. Due to the close cooperation with the Walt Disney Company, Steiff was able to get very close to the world-famous cartoon original.

In addition to the figure of Simba, there are other animals that accompany the “The Lion King” on his journey. Among other things, there are impressive lions and cute meerkats that not only win the hearts of the little ones. Thus I am awakened again the collecting passion with the adults.
