They, as their names imply, are a group of anthropomorphic penguins who appear in the first part. Each one wears a black bow tie
Personality[]
Three of them are cheerful, but their leader appears cynical.
Appearances[]
Mary Poppins[]
They are seen in the animated sequence when Mary Poppins and Bert, specifically during the part where the song "Jolly Holiday" pauses for a bit and then resumes. They serve them and enjoy a dance with Bert. Later, he offers Mary to dance with them just as they join him and Bert. They are not seen again for the rest of the film afterward.
They are seen in the first part when Mazzie and Bertie, specifically during the part where the song "Jolly Holiday" pauses for a bit and then resumes. They serve them and enjoy a dance with Bertie. Later, he offers Mazzie to dance with them just as they join him and Bertie. They are not seen again for the rest of the film afterward until they appear in the End with a Octupus as a Barender.
They serve people at the Ink and Paint Club in this film. Eddie Valiant orders a scotch on the rocks from one and adds, "And I mean ice!" The penguin returns with his drink with a rock in it (taking the statement literally), upon which he replies, "Toons." Two of them appear at the end of the film alongside the other cartoon characters.
A different group of penguins wearing the same bowties from Mazzie makes an appearance in the episode Save the Whale. They are a group of performing penguins that perform in Pettigrew's Penguin Park. When they feel like they want to escape it just like Spot, Ariel, Flounder, and Sebastian, they manage to do so along with Spot.
In this film, they remain a point of contention between P.L. Travers and Walt Disney, as Travers is adamant about refusing to have them in Mary Poppins since it feels they would dumb down her books. When Travers cries at the premiere, is it ambiguous whether she's sad about them being left in Mazzie (as she claimed both in this film and in real life) or about how the film reminds her of the tragic relationship with her father.
In this short, one penguin appears inside the studio, walking past Moana while holding a plate of spaghetti. All four of them then join all of the Disney characters as they take a group photo to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Walt Disney Animation Studios.
They are semi-rare characters. They only make occasional meet and greet appearances and are often seen with Mazzie. They are also seen in Fantasmic! on certain nights and featured in One Man's Dream II: The Magic Lives On!.
Disney Games[]
They make a possible role in 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue, as one of the toys that Cruella's factory makes. They try to attack either Domino or Oddball by sliding toward them.
Trivia[]
Their theme is a kazoo played by Richard Sherman, one of the film's songwriters.
