From Accoutrements,
possibly via Archie McPhee (I made-up
an order from them back in the 1990's when they (and BuM) were carrying the Giant
re-issues) comes this set of Hula dancers on swizzle-sticks.
One day I'll get them out and cut a couple
off to base them as stand-alone figures, but for now they stay-put. About 25mm
and a polypropylene type polymer.
These expandable toys fall into two
categories; fun stocking fillers for kids at Christmas and Stag/Hen stuff, this
is really from the latter, and after an explosion of them in the early-1990's
they faded a bit, but the novelty and gift section of Waterstone's is still
good for a selection of Nun's, Escorts and Body-builders!
Crap photograph not helped by the expanding
foam figurine being in an orange-red, the worst of all colours to shoot! 40mm
dry . . . 100+ wet . . . 'ish! Now defunct Marshall's of the West Country were the importer on this one.
