This toy was such a massive rip-off. I remember spending all of my Christmas money one year to buy one of these and it wasn't cheap. It worked great and made some really nice items, but they only gave you enough liquid to wet your appetite and make a handful of items and then you were out of luck. No way my parents were shelling out money for bottles of goop, so the toy basically sat there unused and was quickly given away.

The wallets with the colored acetate , was a secret emblem concealer, whatever was text/Logo printed in a certain color on the card magically disappeared when the card was in the wallet, and was only visible when you pulled the card out. A different toy, Secret Agent Zero-M had a similar notepad / clear sleeve, and a colored pen, for writing "invisible messages".

These guys would fit in from mid-World War 2 into the early post-war period. The “guy on patrol” with the Ushanka hat is holding a SVT-40 (sniper variant, but the scope is mounted in the wrong place). As the name implies, the SVT-40 was available in 1940, but mass production was FUBARED by Operation Barbarossa. The sniper variant was abandoned by 1942 or so, so this guy has a fairly uncommon weapon for the time. The “aiming snipers” have Mosin-Nagants, which are the most common Soviet sniper rifles of the era. They were first put into production in the 1890s and were also copied. Great weapon.

I still have my Creepy Crawlers, Fright Factory and Creeple Peeple! And they did have a set come out in the 90s (I believe) that cooked the GIANT bugs, they were still aluminum molds but a light bulb oven. I also learned to make my own plastigoop so I don’t have to buy a million bottles of it off the web. I typically make a huge bowl of bugs for kids to take from when trick-pr-treating along with candy.

@@supermonstercity2938 - I don’t remember exactly what initiated my search but I came across videos of fishermen who make their own fake bait. They do a very similar process but they heat up the plastisol and then inject it into 3D molds. The difference is that what they typically use is much softer and tears rather easily. They talked about using a “hardener” so I tried some of that; way too hard. So I played with some mixtures to try to get the right balance. I was successful but it was kind of a pain always mixing the right amounts. Then I tried Dead On Plastix - one of their hardeners alone was just the right consistency. It looks white, turns clear, so I also used some dye for different colors, the same dyes that fishermen use. It’s not cheap if you only want to play with it a bit and make a few bugs, but my grandson and I were making tons of stuff in different colors. I bought a stash of plastic bottles just like the ones that came with them originally, so I’m able to mix and save recipes for different colors. The only problem I’ve had is with glow-in-the-dark; the only way to do it is with a powder, and it doesn’t dissolve very well in the goop and it usually will settle at the bottom of the mold when cooking. I may just have to play around with it some more.

You were a little younger than me, so a lot of your toys came out later than the ones I remember. I do seem to remember a mechanized Godzilla that shot marbles! I was really young so it had to be about 1965 or earlier. I just remember it scaring me (but thrilling me at the same time) - I’m guessing it got pulled from the market pretty soon too because it was too dangerous. Yet they still sold hot plates to 8 year olds (Creepy Crawlers).
