So there's been a childhood toy of mine I've been trying to track down.
When I was three or four, I got this guy in my Happy Meal:
Okay, not exactly that guy in the picture, as this was just a pic I found online, and I remember mine was brown and was made of a harder glossy brown plastic instead of rubber. I think this guy was the start of my obsession with bats, well that and seeing an episode about bats on Wild Kingdom the day I got this guy. Over the years, he was one of my fave toys, but I guess I lost him or something.
Anyways, in the past decade, I wanted to find this guy again and for years I couldn't figure out how to find him till one day I happened across the above picture on Flickr and found out it was made by a company called Diener, who pretty much specialized in pencil erasers shaped like various things and the figure was from their "Alien Creatures" series.
Anyone else remember these guys?
