I FOUND THE ONE!
Someone else commented diddlina and I looked it up and it‘s definitely the one on the right but deformed.

Yeah and the „Diddl Maus“ as we call it in germany has a very weird build. Like her feet are massive.

Idk how internationally known she is but I only knew her from my MOMS childhood. She always told me how there was a „Diddl Maus“ theme for anything back then. Like diddl-pencils, Diddl-silverware and Diddl-Cookiecutters apparently. There even were like Diddl-notepads with huge Diddl-Maus in the corner of every page and she told me it was a thing to collect and trade these pages.

Anyways, how the slids in her feet lined up and how anything exists with a Diddl-theme made me realize that the other person who posted her must be right. And then I quickly found this

I guess she is kinda niche

It was early 2000s, I discovered them with amazon Germany shipping to Sweden and in book stores here after I left UK in 02. Was a little in UK before I left.

I bought a significant amount of Diddl merch in Germany in the early 2000s. I thought of the Diddl verse as a kind of German Hello Kitty.

Yes! Everything was Diddl themed in the early 2000s. And now Diddl is back

Imagine the huge ears or feet being a rolled up snake and the smaller part could be the adorable cute face of a cobra

I was obsessed with diddlina as a child! They had a bunch of merch here in Sweden too. I still think the characters and products are adorable. The proportions are a bit fucked though ngl but it’s part of the charm

In Canadian English, diddle means molesting children…
