Take a look at this amphibious creation in action!
Flippers power the penguin in the water. Use the limiters at the at their base to apply direction.
Changing the rudder angle also lets you apply direction.
Our model takes inspiration from Humboldt penguins, and the water resistant stickers in the kit take care of body markings and facial features.

Why not give your penguin a fresh look with a different color or expression?
