So all during the month of October, I was on top of my blogging game. November hits and BAM! nothing for almost an entire month. Its not that I don't have anything to talk about. I just haven't had the time.
During the Countdown to Halloween, Eric over at Toyriffic did a post talking about a Hubcat he found at a thrift store. After reading his post, I was curious and had to find these figures. I remember the Crash Test Dummies line of toys, but never really paid them any attention back in the day. The Hubcat and Bumper set is a little morbid but so absurd they are awesome. In his post, Eric also mentioned Skid the Kid. A quick Google search and I was hooked.
After several weeks of stalking ebay, I struck and won a Skid the Kid!! This figure is ridiculously cute! Skid sucks his/her thumb. Skid looks as though it could be dressed in a daisy costume. The figure originally also came with a little stroller that I believe is kind of like an ejector seat. My figure didn't come with the stroller so I am on the look out for that as well.
I am also considering getting this figure carded. It is just too cute not to have multiples. I would like to pick up a loose set of Hubcat and Bumper to go with Skid. But so far, all I have seen are carded figure sets.
My quest continues to find more of these figures. Thanks Toyriffic for getting me hooked on Crash Test Dummies.
Ah what a little cutie.
ReplyDeleteHahaha glad I could help! I could go for a Skid the Kid myself. So morbidly wrong!
ReplyDeleteI know I had one Crash Test Dummy when they originally came out, and I think it still resides in my dad's garage - I will have to check when I visit for Thanksgiving. Thanks for the reminder!
