Boarder Frank II


The Boarder Frank returns, in bendy form. Once again, he's part of a set called Fantastic Franks from Kid Stuff Marketing. The original version was from 2009. I think this version is 2019. His back foot is connected so he's forever pushing mongo.

Other skateboarding hot dogs include The Delicious One & the Franksters.

Average Smurf


This skateboard was part of the Escape from New York playset, which was a tie-in to the 2011 Smurfs movie. The Smurf was from the previous year and was just marketed as "Smurf" with no other name. Guess he's Average Smurf. Check the Smurf tag for a bunch of other Smurf stuff.
