Hey,

I'm sure you guys remember Boglins. These little creatures totally kicked arse. They were like puppets, but cooler. They looked alive in your hands, especially when you made their eyes and mouths move.

I'm mostly referring to the three original large Boglins; Dwork, Vlobb, and Drool. I owned Vlobb as a kid, but beat the crap out of him from playing with it all the time. About six months ago, I found a MIB never before opened Dwork, who's looks I liked better than Vlobb's, and bought it online. He is AWESOME, still in his little cage and everything.

They also had smaller boglins and water boglins, and even mini boglins. In Europe I think they had the large ones with hair and different names. Anyways, these toys kicked arse and I thought they deserved a mention!

I'll post a pic of my MINT Dwork for everyone to see!

A new series of Boglins was recently sold over in Europe! They're not the old Boglin molds, and they're not bootlegs or anything. They're the same idea (rubbery grotesque puppets), although each Boglin has a gimmick: one has eyes that extend out of its head, one squirts water, one has bubbly zits, etc. I got it as a present a few years ago from a friend who went over to England. I seem to remember they were available over here, too, although I'm not too sure. Anyway, I'll take a picture of the one I have, and maybe somebody will recognize it.
