'Wrong' Toys

[Mythor]

You could set them off in your hand if you wanted to. Although that tended to leave them closer to your own face than putting them on the ground and backing away.

Here's a bunch more weird toys.

Operation Brain Surgery.
What the ..?

Plush Alien Chest Burster. The perfect gift for that unruly 5 year old.

And if you wanted more parasitic plush toys there’s always Tickles the Tapeworm. Also available: Dig Dig the head louse, Zzeezz the Bed Bug and Blinky the Eyelash Mite.

Japanese Russian Roulette toy. Oh those wacky Japanese toy designers! What will they think of next?!?

Apparently one of the stand-out features of this Dog-Headed Buddha is that it weighs over 1.5 pounds and has a felt covered bottom.
Hell, so do I, and no one makes a big deal out of that.

Monty Python’s Meaning of Life Mr Creosote figure, with genuine vomiting action!

Love Rats, perfect for Valentines AND Halloween!

Skullfucker pencil sharpener. Yay!

Pulp Fiction Gimp scene play figure set. Includes Zed with paddle and ball-gagged Marcellus! Also available: Overdose scene set and brain-splattered Clean Up scene set.

Richard Wagner action figure. Umm … what?

A friend of mine has a chicken chucker and they're evil machines.
They also have pig chuckers and cat chuckers. The 'thrown cats' look particularly good!

More stuff:

Here’s some weird toys-based news: “The city of Boston is giving parking violators a chance to pay tickets with toys instead of money.” It was a toy drive for some charity thing.

OMG, this is the BEST plush toy EVER!!! It’s the morphing werewolf plush!

Boy, this looked like fun: The Strange Change machine. You turn on the machine, wait for it to heat up, toss in on of the little square capsules and it would morph into a creature! “Strange Change time capsules are made of a special plastic with shape memory … the molded creatures were passed into a chamber and subjected to a high-energy beam of electrons.”
Neato!

And here's the 2004 Toy Fair Top 10 strangest new toys. Eh, they're not that strange. The super pogo sticks sound like fun ...

More bizarre toy news. Don't know how I missed this one.

Iraqi Insurgents kidnap badly photoshopped action figure!

Apparently they got Elmo too.
I have a sneaky suspicion that Evil Bert is behind it all.

[red_cherry]

Lol they can have him, I hate that freaky red dude!

I visited the Collectables Fair at Paramatta a few days ago and discovered some adorable Happy Tree Friends merchandise. There are some cool figurines available online here, but the one I wanted doesn't seem to be shown.

They were plush figurines, 30cm in height. The package suggested "Squeezing them to death" and sure enough, the little tag displayed instructions on how squeezing Cuddles, the poor bunnied head pops off (leaving a chain of spine), hand falls off to reveal a bony stub and some guts poke out of the stomach.

Flippy was also available, but didn't look as fun.

This is quite, quite wrong. Ah, hindsight is a bugger.

And here's some pirated Buffy figures! Boy, do they suck!

And I just had a nasty shock. Everyone knows Lion Force Voltron, but apparently not many people remember the original Vehicle Voltron. I found a pic of the original toys - but it turns out that Lion Force Voltron was Voltron 3! Voltron 2 was 'Gladiator' Voltron (or 'Albegas' Voltron) and it sucked the big one! WAAAGH!

Weird Voltron trivia:

Everyone knows the story of Sven, right? He was the original pilot of the Blue Lion, fighting alongside Keith and the others until a battle injury forced him to turn over his duties to Princess Allura. By the end of the series, his wounds had healed and he returned for the final battles, even going man-to-man with Lotor. Well, that's the story if you've only seen the Americanized Voltron: Defender of the Universe. Things went a little differently in Golion, the Japanese original. In Japan, the Sven characters name was Takashi Shirogane, and he wasn't just injured in that early episode. He was killed. That's right, dead as a doornail. It's his younger brother Sho who's in the final episodes, and he's the one who beats the crap out of Sinclaine (Lotor) in the climactic battle. And by the way, they both die in the original (Voltron has them fall into water and survive). In this case, the American version is probably preferable. I mean, who do you respect more: A guy who gets injured and later returns for some payback, or a looser who buys it early on and has to be avenged by his kid brother?

Anyone remember Madballs?

Did anyone ever figure out what the point of them was supposed to be??? I never could.
There was a comicbook, a cartoon series, and I think there might have been a C64 game. Why???

This is wrong on so, so many levels.
Blame Unfru - she started it!!
