When we saw it for the first time, we could not believe it. Pocoyo is a huge Pocoyo! The same happened to Elly, Pato, Loula and Sleepy Bird. They became adorable giants of 5 metres high and almost 3 meters wide…
The creators of this nice tribute are from Yecla (a little town from Murcia, Spain). During the San Isidro Festival, this town welcomes the spring and remembers the agricultural traditions. Moreover, the members of the traditional “peñas” (groups of people) show their homemade and particular “carrozas”. These “carrozas” are really masterpieces – done with paper, cork and other home materials… and people invest months of work for that special day.
Each figure is independent and cannot be separated. Everything is recovered with nice and colorful papers – which make them quite difficult to keep them and support the passage of time. For that reason the responsible of this masterpiece, the El Alba “peña”, are going to hand over the huge figures to a school in order to enjoy them a bit longer…
This is like viewing in life the Poczilla episode!!! XDD
Thank you very much for being inspired in Pocoyo! For Zinkia and Pocoyo it is a huge honor to see how Pocoyo makes happy to so many people…

Horray for Pocoyo!!!!!
They look fabulous! Thank you for sharing them with us!
To the person who typed the blog, here is a little bit of English assistance for you:
3 metres wide or 3 kilos in weight
It's confusing because we say 5 metres in height or 5 metres high, but weight is about kilos. :)
It's tough to write in another language! :D
