Kids of the 80s - can you help me identify this toy?
I found this in my parents' basement... I remember playing with it but can't remember what this little character was called. I think it was from a cartoon? It's driving me nuts that I can't remember. :crazy: :freak: Anyone?

2. Could it be from Dragon Tales?

It kinda looks like Cassie (the "pink" dragon). My youngest likes to watch this show on PBS.

5. Dragon Tales is too recent...
It wasn't around in the 80's.

That little guy does look familiar, though.

8. Eureka's Castle
Don't know the name, though.
I was born in 1985, under the shadow of Satan* himself.

Moon Dreamers -- Stardust, A Snoozer. I can't link to the picture from the site I found it on. But, here's the link to the page. If you scroll down about 2/3 of the way, you'll see them.

12. Remember those animal hybrid toys? (Seriously.)
There was an elephant who could fly or something, and a bunch of other goofy combinations of animals. I want to say it started with a W. I don't know if that thing was one of them, but that's what it reminds me of, whatever that show/toy was.
