4.5" Kolorkids
These 4.5" Kolorkids are unique for being the only minis that are neither finger puppets nor bean bags. The promotion was advertised in newspapers in the Netherlands in 1992.
The ad above translates to:
At Kodak Express, [there are] new Kolorkids in five cozy, pastel colours. Also at Kodak Express, the five Kolorkids [are available] in the Olympic colours. Get is as a gift* with the new Kodak Gold Ⅱ️ Films. Hurry to Kodak Express where you can collect all ten Kolorkids.
*While supplies last. Or half the value.
This series of Kolorkids includes five Kolorkids, each of which is available in two colours: a pastel and a colour from the Olympic rings. Each of the ten Kolorkids has a different name. Kolorkids from this series have been found with bilingual tags written in Dutch and French, but no address (suggesting availability in Belgium or BENELUX countries), English tags in Sweden, and English tags and an address on the back for "Kodak Australasia" (probably serving Australia, New Zealand, and the rest of Oceania). The name of the light purple pastel equivalent of Goldy is unknown because the only known sample doesn't have a tag.
At least seven of the Kolorkids from this series are known to have been released in Australasia, four of which had different names. At least two of the Kolorkids from this series are known to have been released in Sweden: Dummy (renamed Click) and Blacky (renamed Focus). At least three of the Kolorkids from this series are known to have been released in Sweden as full size (9-inch) Kolorkins, with their Dutch/French names: Goldy, Blacky, and Magenta.
The table below matches Kolorkids in Olympic colours on the left side with their pastel equivalent on the right side.

The ad doesn't include an order form, or specify a promotion end date, because of the nature of the promotion. Instead of mailing proofs of purchase, Kolorkids were included with the purchase of film, right in the box. "Or half the value" suggests that it may have been possible to purchase the Kolorkid by itself for half the price of the film.
Smaller ads also appeared in newspapers in the Netherlands in June 1992 for a promotion to get a free Kolorkid from June 1 to June 30, but the ad shows Snap (a finger puppet), so it's unclear if this is the same promotion.
