I can't believe he managed to squeeze Ossuary into something so quickly, manner from Heaven, that must have been! And so soon after name checking Gygax monsters, after a fashion! So fragile, yet so pleased with his own idea of himself, but seeming to know so little?
Continuing the intermittent clearing of blind-bag and novelty capsule stuff from the folders, and these are in the shops now, from HGL, an old pocket-money importer, whose corporate structure and business model has suffered, endured, maybe enjoyed (?) several changes, in the few years this Blog has been going.
Very much a knock-off of the
Toy Box miniature versions of other toys from
Hasbro,
Mattel and co., which we saw, just over a year ago, but here with the hook that they are all fidget toys, or cheapo-novelties, rather than the licensed properties and TV advertised stuff of our childhood memories, in that earlier set.
There's the one you can see in the mirror-backed clear dome, sealed against filching, by a shrink-wrapped film, like a soft-drink! Inside are four foil packets with the other toys [of toys] inside. Other items include a fidget-spinner, Jacob's ladders, a squish-ball, slinky and the like.
Series one missed me completely, and series two claims to have 25 to collect, but lists various colour variations within that count, which is further complicated by some pairs, counting as one, like the dinosaurs here, giving more than 31 items to find if you are minded to? But with two dinosaurs and a balloon-animal, I'll stick at five . . . it’s a full house! No, I don't know the significance of the switch, but guess it's a fidget 'thing'!
