Not sure what’s there to understand. It’s a thing like Hello Kitty is a thing. It’s not based on a show. It’s a figure which stood on its own and spawned lots of merchandise.

Just a cartoon mouse that started out on cards, mugs, shirts and stuff. Like the merch you can buy for cartoons, just w/o there being a cartoon in the first place.

There are endless things. Used to be a grave for the Taschengeld of Millenials. Every office has an old mug that has been in the dishwasher too often with a Diddlemaus on.

Diddl was big when I was a teen, and it is just like Hello Kitty, or any other for merch invented character.
For me Diddl always gives me nostalgia and how I got people to stop bullying me cause I had rare stuff to trade lol

So, the Diddlmaus was a mascot created by an artist and heavily market espescially children and pre-teens in all kind of manners. Greeting cards, mugs, placing cards, stationary, what ever nicknack and merchandise possible, there was one with a Diddl or his girlfriend printed on it.
That was in the early nineties.
Now, the whole Diddl thing got a whole new momentum with the publishing of note pads that were each printed with a dedicated Diddl image on it. These things created big trading activities in elementary and secondary schools up and down the country, in which kids would try to exchange their note pad sheets to get as many different pictures as possible.
Pokémon killed off these activities in the late nineties, though, and new saccharine merchandise entered the market, think Sheepworld and that one japanese cat; so the importence of Diddle first got a gut punch and then slowly fizzled away into oblivion. I don’t even know if they are still produced.
