(Pictured: Playful Heart 3 diff. angles, Shot from 1986 Kenner Catalog)

Out of all the rare poseable prototypes, Playful Heart Monkey has been seen on auction the most. Here is a list of when it sold and for how much. We know of at least one that was represented (resold) twice on the following list:

PLAYFUL HEART

1 - 1999 - Seen on Ebay - $800 - This was the first one known to exist.
2 - 1999 - Seen on a Web Site - *Price Unknown* - The seller (from the UK sold this and would not reveal to whom or the price, for all we know it could have been one of the monkeys seen on eaby)
3 - 2002 (Fall) - Seen on Ebay - $530
4 - 2002 (Dec) - Seen on Ebay, but auction ended early - $100 - This seller was from Australia and ended these early because of an offer.
5 - 2003 (Nov) - $256 - This was in poor condition. - Located in Hong Kong. Quote from the seller: "I got this monkey in a bag of old small toys/figures sometimes ago in a Hong Kong junk store during a trip there. Together there is a champion bear too. I didn't know it worth some money until my friend saw it and told me!"
6 - 2003 (Dec) - $554 - Offered on ebay - this person would only ship to the UK so the auction did not go for as high.
7 - 2004 (Feb) - $500 - Offered Privately through a message board.
8 - 2004 - (June) - $760 - Seen on ebay - This one was flawed by a smoky smell, it was probably the same monkey as one of those listed above.

It's accessory has never been seen. This poseable is one of four (also, Proud Heart Cat, Loyal Heart Dog, Treat Heart Pig) extremely hard to find pieces. These were never sold in America or Canada. Current evidence suggests they were sold limitedly in England and Australia, possibly in Hong Kong. They were pictured in the 1986 Kenner Catalog which was never sent out due to Kenner's buy-out. I currently own this Monkey, but not it's accessory. Anyone who has anymore current knowlede please contact me and share your information.

This poseable above appeared on eBay January of 2002, this is the one I own. The seller was from Australia.
