Toy: Stretch Armstrong
This muscular looking man first came out in the mid ’70s without pants, but was later re-released in 1990 with shorts and a muscle shirt. What was cool about this toy is that you could stretch his arms and legs really far without them breaking. The toy was rubber and filled with corn syrup, making it thick but durable. There was also a Fetch Armstrong (a dog) and Stretch’s evil brother Wretch Armstrong.
An added ‘Did you know’ is that Universal Pictures is actually planning on making a movie about this character. Why? No freaking idea!
Congrats to Mokia who got it again! This time we’re giving it to the Spuddy Buddies, who are blogging for the Best Friends Animal Society.
I’ll have at least one more before the ‘thon is done. Will have to think of another tough one.
