I do not know the history of them but I'm crazy for them can someone help me?? do you know anything about them? have they to sell??
These caught my eye in the Vintage Mail thread as well. I don't know anything about them, but would love to see more photos if anyone has any!
the first 3 you posted are my photos, i have a 4th one as well. from talking to other collectors of these, it seems as though they were made in the early 70s and there are 7 different characters. nobody i've talked to has ever seen them packaged. i found all of mine in a vintage toy store. in about 5 years of searching i've only seen a few examples ever for sale on ebay.
Wasn't even till recently that someone posted saying he remembers having them in either the late 60s or early 70s. That so far is the best time reference as to when they were made that I know.
the one vintagevinyl posted is the other one that i own as well. i bought 3 of mine from someone who personally bought them new in the 70s, but unfortunately he could not recall how they were packaged or if they had a name.
