Disney 60mm Flower Painted Heimo? The Figure

Disney 60mm Flower Painted Heimo?

Eric made the following comment on the figure.

I’m still not sure what it is.  It is in a soft plastic (or vinyl?) and painted in what would appear to be a Marx style.  However, the bottom of the figure is also painted in the brown body color of the figure, and I am not used to seeing such figures painted on the bottom.  I suppose it might not be paint, but the color of the plastic, but it looks and feels like paint.  I thought maybe it was a Disney King, but I do not see the Flower figure listed as having been made in that series.  There is a very small circular impression in the bottom, but I cannot see – even with a magnifying glass — if anything is printed inside it, the paint partially obscuring whatever might be there.  Also, there seems to be a stamped word on the bottom, but again it is small and slightly smeared, and I cannot read what it says.  Any idea what it might be?  I’d think maybe something made in Europe?

When Eric first mention that the figure was painted my first thought it could be Heimo. Marx had figures made in Germany. As reported to before here, Marx sold the molds of to Heimo which included Disney molds.  Eric sent the photo and when I saw that Flower the skunk from Bambi was brown, I knew I was on the right track. Checking the internet I came up with the following link

As you can see all four figures are painted in the same brown. So what Eric got was a Heimo figure.  Another case closed.

  2. I got a bunch of Marx painted comic figures from England maybe 10 years ago including a Flower. She was not painted to as much detail as the Heimo (picture at my website) and like the other painted figures was made in a rubber like vinyl.
