Weeble


This Weeble is much larger than the ones from the '70s that I played with as a kid. Those smaller ones, although not all that small, were probably lumped in with Fisher Price Little People as choking hazards and removed from American larynxes for a generation. After a couple decade hiatus Weebles returned as non-egg shaped toys. When those failed they returned to the classic egg shape but went about twice as large. This figure came out in 2009 and was paired with a soccer playing boy in the "Sports" 2-pack. Even in egg shape they managed to get elbow pads and a helmet on her (which is pretty odd considering they never fall).
