With its five radiating arms and unique silhouette, the starfish is one of the most iconic marine invertebrates of coasts and reefs. It is found in both warm and cold seas.
Amazingly, the starfish can regenerate a lost arm, and sometimes even rebuild an entire body from a single fragment. Lacking a brain or blood, it moves using tiny tube feet located under its arms, powered by an internal hydraulic system. A carnivore, it feeds primarily on mollusks, which it splits open with the strength of its arms before digesting them outside its body.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the starfish: characteristic shape, textured details and careful realism. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories by the water or to raise children's awareness of the incredible abilities of these amazing invertebrates.

Once Upon a Time There was Papo
For almost 25 years now, Papo has been helping children to grow and to discover the world around them. Childhood is a time of dreams and adventures, and this was what we had in mind when we decided to create our first princesses, princes, dragons and knights. Thanks to the originality of its products and the extreme care taken with product quality and safety, Papo has won children and parents over the years. Papo is now a reference in the world of model figures and continues to develop new ranges to inspire the imaginations of children all around the world. In an age of mass consumption and throwaway goods, Papo continues to produce fine quality toys that last over time and can be passed on from generation to generation.
