It was grey with a red spiked collar and chain. I think it was called Marmot or Marmut. Made in hard plastic with movable legs. I would be grateful if anyone can tell me what programme it came from. Would have been in the late eighties or early nineties. Thought it might have been a Tasmanian devil figure but can’t find it. Can anyone help please?
