This Funko Soda figure shows a purple hippo in a safari-style outfit from the 1964 animated TV series The
Peter Potamus Show. The character is Peter Potamus, the lead of the segment “
Peter Potamus and So-So,” typically portrayed as an adventurous, good-natured traveler. The show is part of the classic Hanna-Barbera era of television cartoons.

A brown belt with a gold buckle sits at the waist, and the face features simple black oval eyes, arched brows, and a wide snout with small nostrils. It comes in the SODA canister format under the Soda category, with no number shown in the provided details. This
2020 release is limited to 5,000 pieces produced.
