Does anyone have any info on Magic Boglins?

They look to fold over themselves to form a ball. Anyone have any of these?

Whoa. Never even seen those!

First I've ever heard of them! In the package it just looks like big sticky blob. I'm really curious now what it looks like unfolded.

Obscure of the obscure.

Boglins+Popples=Magic Boglins

Freaky!

[Draznar]

Nice find homie!

[redjarojam]

from the artwork they look like a testicle with Boglin head and arms.

Yeah that package shot it looks like it would be similar to quarter machine sticky hands and sticky bugs.

Never ever seen these.......look cool though.....

[plasticfiend]

Where did you find it Mr. Nilla?

 

PF

[Ericnilla]

It was on yahoo auctions but I was outbid, ended at $30 before fees.

[fkro6784]

I wonder if they were only released in Japan.

This makes them even more awesome to me

Pretty sure they were released in Europe too. They are rare though.

[Ericnilla]

yeah i remember years back one popped up for sale from a Euro seller.

Boglins FTW!

The first i ever heard of these was in this video https://youtu.be/4_MjqfIrfAk?t=117 as an ad on the back of the pack

[Ericnilla]

I heard from a collector on  FB that these grow in water.

I have one of these, not in packaging - they don't do anything in water other than get cleaned, the stickiness can harbour a lot of dust so the first thing I did when I got him was clean it off. I can't read japanese but judging from the back of the packaging and playing around with it you just fold it into itself and it just slowly unfolds itself out, same as the acrobatic boglins, the packaging says to wrap it around itself and it will slowly unwrap itself, one of the very few things you can do with them haha.

 

I've attached an image of it before and after the great wash

Very cool! And makes sense now.

[Edmasta]

I had one of these as a kid literally never thought about it until now.
I'm sure the packaging was very similar on the Euro ones.

Edit I'm unsure now it could have been one of those baby Boglins I had or an Acrobat one??? :/

Should have been called Ball-Glins.

I want to meme this, but I am sure it would just get me in trouble...

[Mikeum]
