I remember how the package art always showed the sidekicks with at least a little paint, such as eyes and teeth. A part of me would still like to paint some of mine as they were shown, but another part wants them "pristine" as they came packaged
Joe Eyeball is one of the coolest little monsters ever cast in plastic, I think. I love gooey, tentacled, eye-stalked creatures. My favorite as a kid was screwloose, though, and my favorite now is "fly friend"...he has almost a Daddy Roth look to him, and flies are up there in my favorite "bugs" anyhow. Naturally, as a kid I used him more as Baxter's sidekick than Napoleon's.
Many of these are completely new to me, most notably the first four (I didn't realize those came with their own little mutants!) love the insect and the slimy-looking yellow monster.
The cactus and the flower are pretty unique, too.

didn't rat king come with any rats too? i think the definition of companion should be clarified. small animals meant as weapons or familiars with no real personality shouldn't be considered as a companion, i think.

It's amazing how the little toss-in figures have gained in price more than some of the toys themself!

Yeah, that's a good point. When Fitz and I coined the phrase "companion figure" I think we had in mind actual semi-humanoid figures that could conceivably stand alone. Here's the working definition of the figures we're trying to document:i think the definition of companion should be clarified. small animals meant as weapons or familiars with no real personality shouldn't be considered as a companion, i think.

Here's the working definition of the figures we're trying to document:i think the definition of companion should be clarified. small animals meant as weapons or familiars with no real personality shouldn't be considered as a companion, i think.
Currently, Toypedia focuses on miniature figure toy lines that fit the following criteria:
(1) 3" tall or smaller
(2) Mono-colored
(3) No attached stand
(4) Non-articulated
(5) Sci-Fi/Monster Themed
At one point, I'm almost certain I had the term "humanoid" in the definition, but I obviously must have removed it. (Maybe because of the RBT Mordles?)
Personally, I don't generally consider weapons and clothing that are -- for lack of a better word -- organisms to be "companion figures." I think of a companion figure as a toy figure that, as I say above, could stand alone. That is, if you were to see a grouping of these figures, one might think they were a toy line unto themselves. I think Fitz' term "sidekick" probably captures this idea better than the term "companion."
On the other hand, the term "accessory figure" probably would be suitable for the weapons and clothing that happen to be "organisms."
(Jeebus, I'm a geek.)
* And I say "coined the phrase" because shortly after I started using it, I noticed everybody else called them accessory figures.
