You won't believe what they've done? But first, to other things, as this is Brian Berke's findings on a recent visit to Dollar Tree, on the look-out for Halloween stuff, or other figurals, and I'm posting them in shot-order!
Starting with more erasers, and we like erasers here, I don't know why they switched the position of the pumpkin and Dr's Monster under the blister, but not the spider, however, it must be a nightmare packaging for someone with OCD, and on two levels! Either fully reverse the order, or keep the order on both levels, but this? The horror . . . the horror!
Loving these, the ghost is similar to the one we saw, also from Brian, the other day, but the cat looks to be an
Iwako knock-off? Given that
Iwako do two mouldings in a dozen or more colourways, and one of those has already been copied, someone with a limited budget, or limited space, could start just collecting
Iwako and similar cats! And nothing to upset an OCD sufferer here!
White button toy, it looks like a walker, but claims to be a jumper, so might be a combination jumping-walker, it's probably only another piece of eccentric bent wire under the case? There are some more white button toys to come.
Seasonal Collection looks like a
Dollar Tree branding?
Rather nice, if slightly large solids from
Harry Potter, depicting Hermione, Harry and Ron, I can't see any kind of brand or brand mark, so they may be
Dollar Tree exclusives? But . . . look what they did!!!! . . .
. . . they killed
SpongeBob SquarePants and his friends, killed them and stripped every scrap of flesh from their bones! Who could do such a thing?
Legend Toys with/for
Niclkleodeon, that's who; the despicable monsters! And
SpongeBob does not look happy!
No link to Halloween, but I rather like the M (for
Marvel) bases on these, also solid figurines,
Hasbro marked, I think these are what are now called 'classic' versions, the new movies having taken them to a far darker and more GCI'd sci-fi place!
Thanks, as always, to Brian, for shooting these for us, and he has sent one more item, the most horrible, terrible nightmare-inducing thing ever to be sold to kids, but I'm saving that for the 31st!
