Anyone heard of/seen these cartoons? They're clay-mation Soviet cartoons from the late 1970's or so. They're also absolutely adorable.
Here's a link to the site for it; beware, it's in Russian.
Here's a link to sound clips from the show. They're not great quality, but a few of the songs are really cute. The first and last links are both full songs, and also the 8th link listed.
Here's a link to thumbnail images. The little brown monkey looking thing is Cheburashka... but he's not really a monkey. Gena is the Crocodile, and he's my favorite character.
It's sort of difficult to find the merchandise, though apparently Cheburashka was the mascot of the 2004 Russian olympics team, and there are some dolls on Ebay.
