ABC Wednesday--"C" is for "Creatures from hell"

These bizarre little toys hop and squeak and their fiendish eyes light up. I was almost tempted to buy one for Bibi, but I thinks she'd have been scared.... They did draw quite a crowd though on Belgrade's pedestrian street, Knez Mihailova.

Can you imagine setting a couple of those loose in some one's bedroom at night? Please, not mine though!

Luis Gomez said...

Wonderful and funny toys!

Ah, such restraint! I'd have bought two to keep each other company at night after the light went out. Bibi would have been entertained, and I'm fairly certain she would have asserted her authority in fairly short order!

BTW, I substituted a molasses ginger cookie for your birthday cake in Seattle. I also ate the whole cake. Thanks for permission ... yummy, yummy cookie from the Three Girls Bakery at the market.

Also ... word verification word is "lisseten". So ... lisseten up!

I have seen similar "toys" here but they were not nearly as "fiendish"! I think you did the right thing for Bibi. She probably has enough problems trying to con a sufficient number of treats from you! ;-)

Not sure if I'd want one, either! I'll bet they did draw a crowd though.

You didn't buy one for yourself for your birthday?
No?

I bet they scare small children too!
This is most original for today's "C"!

I'd lock my bedroom door if they were in my house.

I think this must be a case of toys that appeal more to adults than to children! Though I don't think they appeal to me very much at all!

Hahaha! The red-eyes make them look a little evil than cute.

Was their bark as bad as their glare? Wild find.

Lorie Shewbridge said...

Kind-of cute, too. Very confusing.
