Glow-in-the-dark or fluorescent spiders and
cockroaches, apart from the higher advertised price, they are the same as all
the others we've looked at in the 'Countdown to Halloween' posts this
year, and it's almost as if all the retailers have got together to market a
similar range, probably because their buyers got on the blower to their
shipping agents, middle-men or manufacturers and said "What's so-and-so [insert name of rival
here] carrying next October . . . really?
Then we'll have ten-hundred gross of some too!" because that's
probably, exactly what happened!
The spiders seem to be the same mouldings
as the orange ones from Sainsbury's
(who didn't have cockroaches) and Waitrose
also seemed to be carrying the same little rings as Tiger, neither of which I've invested in on your behalf, as they
are both poorer (in quality) than . . . and copies of - the Poundland one's we looked at on day-one,
which were poor enough!
So concludes the 'Countdown to Halloween' [no it doesn't, more came in after I'd finalised the 'spreadsheet!],
there's more to come through the day, today, thought and we'll see what
turns-up in a year's time; anything small and novelty/figural should appear
here at Small Scale World, then?
