We picked up a jiggler sucker bat tother day
Perfect for Halloween!
It reminded me of a 1979 toy I would have loved as a kud in the Sixties,
Mattel's Gre-gory!
The big bad vampire bat.
Here's a comic and. I couldn't find a TV spot.
Besides it's rubbery action, Greg's unique selling point was a blood pump in its chest!
I wonder if it sold well?
Operated by a pump button on its back, this feature has dried up now in most Greg-gories by the sounds of it ( as attested by You Tube videos on the toy).
Is this haunted tree mouse a toy you had or remember Gruesome readers?



As I have said so many times before, some of the sickest minds on the planet work in the toy industry. This proves it.
ReplyDeleteNow I have a question - why did Aurora never make a large scale Vampire Bat kit in their horror line ? There were just a few small bats in various kits, but they were just accessories to some other model. It could easily have been sold as Dracula in his bat form.
