Thrifty Thursday: Weebles


Who remembers the original Weebles from the early and mid 1970s? 

As a young child, I remember playing with them in the bathtub. (I'm sure ours were obtained secondhand at the time.) We had some Disney ones that wore little Mickey Mouse ears.

I recently found a couple at a thrift store and they brought back fun memories. I had the one on the left as a child.



Weebles are still made today, but they are much larger. It is a bit scary to see how small these were.
