Football Bumble is a bouncy cheerleader who's always ready for battle. Whether you've won the weekend game or need a smile after a tough training session, he's ready with his good humour and endless energy. And he can hardly stand still - he jumps like he's just scored the winning goal in overtime. Put him on your desk, in your living room or anywhere else and let him remind you that life is all about keeping moving, and having fun while doing it.

With a strong belief in the power of smiles, Gustav Ehrenreich founded his happy Hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The aim was to create a figurine that would serve as a constant reminder to stay positive and optimistic. For although the 1960s are often referred to as the “Swinging Sixties”, the decade was marked by unrest. This made Ehrenreich’s design a welcome spreader of joy in an otherwise turbulent time.
