The Papo Starfish captures the distinctive shape and texture of one of the ocean's most recognizable echinoderms. With five radiating arms, realistic surface details, and natural orange and yellow coloration, this figure accurately represents a common sea star.
The Papo Starfish measures approximately 2.75" W x 2.5" L.
The Papo Starfish features an authentic five-armed design with finely sculpted bumps and textured surfaces that closely resemble the rough exterior of a real sea star. The natural orange and yellow coloration is accented by subtle lighter markings that enhance its realistic appearance.
The carefully detailed central disc and lifelike proportions make this figure an excellent addition to marine life collections, educational displays, or imaginative play. The hand-painted finish highlights the intricate textures across each arm.
Starfish, more accurately called sea stars, are echinoderms closely related to sea urchins and sand dollars rather than fish. Most species have five arms extending from a central disc, although some possess many more. Hundreds of tiny tube feet on the underside of each arm allow them to move, cling to surfaces, and capture prey.
Sea stars are famous for their remarkable ability to regenerate lost arms, and some species can even regenerate an entire individual from a single arm if part of the central disc remains attached. They feed on mollusks, coral, and other marine organisms by extending their stomach outside their bodies to digest food before drawing it back inside.
