Hello there,just wondering if anyone has ever came across a penguin with differnt shoes.I've got several penguins and all that I've ever seen have had the same black dress shoes,these shoe are pointed somewhat with 2 laces and the same heel as normal.They are black like normal.He was on a beat up junky card when I got him at a flea market and now that I see he's differnt I regreat freeing him from his waterdamaged prison.I know later in production they were using up extra pcs,maybe this is why,any thoughts or ideas anybody,please let me know.thanks.Ben

Interesting. Any chance some penguins were packaged with Wizard of Oz shoes? That's what they sound like based upon your description.

Those certainly sound like Wizard of Oz/Dracula shoes. Are these the shoes you have?
Wizard of Oz Accessory Check: Mego Museum (http://www.megomuseum.com/woz/wizac.shtml)

Probably someone switched them somewhere along the line.

The card was still sealed despite the water damage?

I don't doubt that it came from the factory that way, but a picture of a sealed Penguin wearing Dracula shoes would make it official.
