DIZZY BAG

I saw this on Ebay and immediately recognised it.

This, the Friction Bug by Mikephil, was part of my childhood but with another name.


It was part of the fab Dizzy Bug game by Joyment. The bugs were tin-plate and I think had pull-back action.

They shot around those depressions in the game board and somehow you won points.

Its nice to think that the bugs got another chance as toys on their
 own through Mikephil.


Did you have any bugs like these?

  1. Yes a luminous plastic one, by Lehmann (Germany) I think.

    1. Really, a plastic one Andy? Must have looked great in the dark!
