Xmas in July, Day 20: Bendy Toys

Maybe you saw the Pink Panther on the nightstand in our last post, well here he is again-- all 2 ft. of foam rubber and flexible wire frame! Along with Tom & Jerry, these Bendy Toys were really awesome and totally different style English imports, and I want them both for xmas, please!! (Montgomery Wards Xmas Catalog, '71)

Pink Panther looks like he needs to get some sleep with those bloodshot eyes!

I had a Roger Rabbit in my late teens (still do, I guess; unless I'm spacing giving him away, witch is totally possible). The only really large stuffed animal I has as a kid was an huge, maybe twelve-foot, blue snake--it was long enough to outline my double bed almost all the way to the edges. He was cool, but he wasn't some famous character. Hmm. I might still have him somewhere, too.

you guys understand that these are not your typical rubber bendies right? These guys are cushy foam and very large, I remember toys made of this material but not sure if I ever had anything or not.
