Can You Still Remember What They Are Called?

Now here’s a wild bunch that’s hard to forget! These wacky little characters once filled toy shelves and kids’ rooms with laughter and a bit of mischief—each one goofier than the next. With their crazy poses and bugged-out eyes, they were the perfect mix of funny and a bit weird. Do you remember what these offbeat figures were called? Let's have a fun discussion below! What other classic toys from yesteryear do you own? Post them here!

I must be pretty lame. I’ve never seen these before. I have bags of beautiful marbles! Cool looking shooters and lots of aggies. Don’t know if I spelled that correctly. I beat many of the neighborhood kids to the point where nobody would play me in marbles anymore. All you need to start playing is a piece of string and a small bag of marbles. Very cheap too!
When I was growing up in the 50’s and 60’s yo-yos were all the rage! I bought myself one. It was a Duncan and sent for a little booklet explaining the basics including some cool tricks.
