He stands about 10cm (4 in) tall.Open up his chest to sharpen your pencil. Sharpening winds his little motor up and then he’s off for a walk.
There is also a key to wind him up if you just want to go for a walk without sharpening a pencil.Rotate his arms up as a pencil rest.
Word of warning – the sharpeners wind-up mechanism is likely to mangle the shaft of your pencil, but it does put a good sharp long point on it.Shavings go into his head. Flip top to empty.

Cool! How old is this?
Brand new, current manufacture.
Cra-zee! I'll have to track one down. Thanks!
Great! A peachy playful portable pencil-powered plastic pal :-) Must...resist...clicking...order...button...
that is super cute! i want a pet that does the same thing.
or maybe just get him for a pet: )
damn. this has got to be one of the most useless products ever. well kinda not useful... it does sharpen pencils.
it is still soooo VERY cool. I don't use wood pencils anymore, but would get one of these in a second if I did.
I knew gunther wouldn't be able to resist one of these, either. :) and look "Must...resist...clicking...order...button..." i was right. mwuashahaha!!!
Germ, you're absolutely right – I fought the 10-year old pencil maniac in me for three days but I lost ;-)
Better be careful - this might be what they call a "gateway sharpener" - leading to more serious sharpeners. ;-)
LOLOLOL.
good one stephen
Yeah, good point. I think I bought a "gateway eraser" and I've struggled ever since. Of course purchasing a gateway pencil is a good thing....
Stephen, thank you for the warning. So really I have to watch out - a long time ago I have bought a gateway mechanical pencil ... ;-) On the other hand it's too late anyway; I'm sure he will make friends with his colleagues from KUM, Dux, M+R, Dahle, Staedtler, Faber-Castell ...
