Another year has come and gone – can you believe it?!

We don’t know about you, but 2017 seems to have vanished in a flash. This year we introduced 12 new Buddies, brought back new and improved versions of classic favourites, and even started dreaming up ideas for products that will soon be revealed in 2018. Time flies when you’re having fun – and working hard!

New Year's Eve plans of our Party Animals

New Year’s Eve is the perfect time to look back and reflect on the year that was, and to celebrate the potential of the year to come. What we love most about New Year’s Eve is that there is no right or wrong way to celebrate!

In honour of the occasion, today we’re taking a peek at how some of our favourite Buddies will be ringing in the New Year. These party animals can sure be hard to keep up with, but luckily they’ve answered a few questions for us about their New Year’s Eve plans:

Song on repeat: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper

Rory Lion Buddy
