Cabbage Patch Kid


I have no skating Santa or other Christmas figure this year, so I'll post a one-time super hot Christmas gift. Cabbage Patch Kids were the first "must have" Christmas gift that I remember. A Cabbage Patch Kid is seen here riding an Applause skateboard (also ridden by Snuffleupagus and Alice, Plucky Duck and a Roll-Along Smurf).

From 1991.

Dreidel


That's right, a skateboarding mother and daughter anthropomorphic dreidel. It looks like this came in mother/daughter and father/son (judging by the back graphic). From 1999. Maybe I'll track down the father/son pair for next year!

Sonic Skater




This is Corkey from the Sonic Adventure of the Super Sonic Kids. He's obviously got the worst style yet of anything I've posted.

Honey Monster





The Honey Monster is the mascot of Sugar Puffs (now branded Honey Monster Puffs), a UK cereal apparently similar to Honey Smacks or Golden Crisp, two cereals I don't think I have ever tried. He's seen here in pencil topper form.

Tony the Tiger




Tony the Tiger from Frosted Flakes (in the US) or Frosties (in the UK). These were issued in 1991 in the UK and were part of a larger set featuring a soccer player, a windsurfer, an American football player, a jetskier and a skier.

Schöller Dinos


These dinos were made be Schöller. They made a bunch of mini dinosaur figures, some realistic and some a bit more rad.

Ikea Bear


It's been quite awhile since I last updated. I've been sharing most of these on Instagram. Anywho, here is a bear wearing a David the Gnome hat from Ikea.
