Looney Tunes - Tweety Bird 
4.9 Red Austria NO head holes (1990) 
No Packaging

The first Looney Tunes characters hit the shelves in 1978 and has been a perennial favorite. Bugs Bunny, Sylvester, Tweety, Daffy Duck, Merlin Mouse, and Speedy Gonzales were the first issues (no feet). Foghorn Leghorn, Roadrunner, Wile E. Coyote, Petunia Pig, Cool Cat, and Henry Hawk were added to the mix in 1980.  In 1987, they added thin feet to all designs and Tweety was then made in Hong Kong for a few years.  In 1989 the country label changed to China.  In 1990, a new China plant ushered in the 4.9 patent stems and thick feet and while that was happening, Tweety was briefly issued on a Red then Neon Red 4.9 Austria stem. They kept the same head, but in 1992, a slightly modified Tweety was out with holes in the head at the stem connection.  A sweeping style design came along in 2002 with the issuance of a new basic design along with two special series: The "Cool" Looney Tunes and the Looney Tunes "Back in Action" series.

This listing is for the regular Red 4.9 Austria edition of Tweety (1990) with NO head holes. This edition was a short run and is quite rare. This item comes with no packaging - in other words, loose.
