Meet Tully, the Bushwalker Platypus, the little mate who is always ready for adventure. Wearing his khaki explorer vest, cream shorts, and trusty brown satchel, Tully wanders the bush with a wild imagination guiding every step.
He knows where the river bends, which logs are perfect for sitting, and how to spot hidden pathways only a true adventurer would find. Armed with a wild imagination and an unshakeable curiosity, Tully finds wonder in every rustling tree and every muddy track, the deeper into the bush, the better.
Crafted in our signature Rugaroo plush style, Tully is a miniature heirloom platypus doll designed for small-world storytelling and dollhouse-compatible play. With his explorer spirit and love for the great Australian outdoors, he invites children into imaginative stories of adventure, discovery, and the kind of quiet bravery that comes from following your own path.
Whether he's trekking along an imaginary bush trail on the Ocean Road play mat, setting off on a new expedition with the miniature playground crew, or resting on a nursery shelf display after a long day of adventures, Tully brings a sense of wonder, courage, and genuine Aussie bush spirit into every playroom.
He's the little mate who reminds us that the greatest adventures begin the moment you step off the path.

The story behind this one
You choose Tully for the child who always wants to go a little further down the track.
He is for the born explorer. The one who finds the hidden path, knows exactly which logs are perfect for sitting, and leads every walkabout with total confidence, and absolutely no map.
Tully has been chosen by adventurous kids, by families who spend their weekends in the bush, and by those drawn to something that captures the quiet bravery of following your own path.
He reminds little ones that the greatest adventures don't need a destination; just curiosity, a good satchel, and the courage to step off the path.
An heirloom miniature bushwalker, reimagined as a platypus. Arriving with his explorer satchel, ready for the next walkabout.
Meet the full collectionFor the dollhouse and small-world play community
One of the only venomous mammals on Earth; and one that lays eggs. Reimagined as a miniature doll to be held, kept and played with.
The platypus is one of nature's great surprises. A mammal that lays eggs, can sense electrical signals in the water, and is found only in Australia. Almost impossible to believe; until you see one.
At approximately 15cm and 1:6 to 1:8 scale, our Rugaroo platypus dolls are designed for small-world play. They sit comfortably within most dollhouse settings, connect with the Rugaroo Miniature Playground, and become part of a growing world inspired by Australian landscapes and stories.
