Queenie is a multi-compartment box figurine is one of the exclusives for the Queen Empress and Princess Dealer events for 2000. While on the beach, she picked up a pretty purple shell, only to realise with some horror later that the shell’s occupant would like to steal her towel. Behind her back, another Nature vs. Man scenario plays out as a seagull eyes up the tasty goodies in her picnic basket. In the compartment under her décolletage is a crown, symbolising Harmony Kingdom’s Queen Empress and Princess Dealers. The interior of the picnic basket contains a sash and rosette. Queenie’s companion, Prince Charming, is a much thinner man in a beach chair. Despite the anchor tattoo on his upper arm, he seems to be quite the landlubber. His pale English skin tends to burn easily, so he applies a tube of 'Fake Tan' instead. The sand around his striped beach chair is littered with his debris: a beer can, remains of a sardine sandwich, and magazines called 'Ellie' and 'Mr. Universe.' A crab makes off with his watch – hopefully it’s waterproof. On the interior, a crown emblazoned with a 'P' pays homage to Harmony Kingdom’s Princess Dealers.
