Production notes
This TV series ran for 26 episodes.
The series was first broadcast in the United States on Nickelodeon on November 8, 1988.
Blinky's sister Printy was renamed Pinky in the American dub.
The series became a huge success in Japan in the wake of koalamania created in 1984, when the Australian government sent Japan six koalas as goodwill ambassadors.
Meet Blinky, Pinky and Sandy Brown. Two magical, cuddly koalas and a bright-eyed kid. With enough energy to light up the whole world, they travel the globe going from one delightful adventure to another. It's every child's dream come true as Snady discovers that Blinky, her favorite stuffed animal, actually becomes a live koala whenever she rubs noses with him! And that's not all: moments later, Blinky's sister Pinky magically appears out of nowhere, and the fun really begins.
