. . . all fools or - specifically - this fool in April! The previous post was of course not Teresa May, but the Jon Pertwee (ex-Dr Who) era Wurzel Gummidge, done as a pencil top, although, as Jan spotted; he did look more like Eddy Izzard or even Grayson Perry!
Courtesy of Chris Smith who got the images to me in plenty of time for an April Fool's two years ago, I can't remember why I missed it that first year, but then Covid-19 intervened last year, still, I have said in the past (with fingers crossed) that "...everything will get up here eventually!", and now it's Jon-call-me-Wurzel's time in the spotlight!
I don't know how many there were in the set, or who imported them but for their third non-empirical mention in the last few days; I wouldn't mind betting it was HCF into the UK, they are similar to the Star Wars pencil-tops we now know were HCF imports!
The costume on the left is the day-to-day or episode-to-episode clothing, while the 'Tereasa May' outfit was for finest or something! Britains did the one figure with different plug-in heads! And they are marked Hong Kong down the spine.
