SchleichHippopotamus Figurine

Q: Is this hard plastic or soft?

Hard plastic I think the hippo looks realistic. I do educational talks about my trip to Africa, and this had plastic figure gives me an example to pass in the audience.

Q: What are the measurements?? Wanna use some as cake toppers.

5 inches long and ~2 inches tall and ~1.5 inches wide.

Q: The product information says that the hippo uses a Lithium ion battery. Why does this product need a battery?

My figure doesn’t need a any kind of battery. Don’t know what their talking about. Great figure though!

Q: Does the hippo mouth open??

No, there are no moving parts on this toy figurine.
