Just a quickie to clear a recent acquisition; over in Farnborough a couple of weeks ago and found one of the charity shops had opened (they were weeks behind their Fleet compatriots) and scored a board game, a few days after the recent board game photo-sesh' (of which there is more still in the queue), it's a bit of fun and most of it went to recycling a couple of weeks ago!
Kids game, mechanism is best described as Ludo-variant, with four players trying to 'get round', the hook being four off-board characters trying to stop them. Warner Brothers cartoon characters provide the interest here. Bugs, Daffy, the Road Runner and Tweaty-Pie (does anyone know why a grown man calling himself baby-talk became the 'biggest' thing on Youtube? End of Civilisation as we know it? Oh, OK, that makes sense!) are in the box to be collected by collectors!In the style of Phidal's figures and in a softish PVC-substitute, they were worth the quid or so for a damaged box - the trouble with buying this stuff from charity-shops is it's not always all there, even if it says checked, but about nine-out-of-ten are complete, so it's always worth a punt!
So Tweaty's about 30mm and Bugs Bunny is a hare over 45! Eh? I shouldn't be allowed! His eyes need work though; he looks even more demented than usual! Mattel's Looney Tunes 4-Toon Race game - box ticked . . . that's all folk's!
