 Roopert the Kangaroo

Roopert the Red Kangaroo is always ready to have a hopping good time anywhere he goes. Standing six-and-a-half feet tall and speaking with a slight Australian accent, he is sure to add a magic touch to any event. Roopert is very special, in that he has a fully performable neck, head, and mouth, which gives him a very life-like range of movement in those areas. This magnificent marsupial is one of my favorite characters and quite possibly the most lovable one as well.

Note:Roopert has retired from performing, but is pictured here for posterity's sake.
