Who here had a Popple toy as a kid?

I never had an actual Popple, but I did have a piggy bank version of one. It didn’t do the cool effect of being able to hide in itself and “pop” out, but I still tried to make it do it anyway.

I didn't, but my son has a football-themed one that I found at a vintage toy sale.

I was too old when they came out... 1977.
But, my little brother... 1981... and little sister... 1983... each had one. My brother had the orange one, and my sister had a smaller yellow one... if I remember correctly.
At that time, I probably had a PXL-2000 and was going around videotaping everything.

I still have my childhood pocket popples,like 5 of them. Never had a full size one until 2022 lol bought one on eBay (she's in great condition) . I have also pre ordered one of the new ones The Loyal Subjects is putting out soon!

I didn't have one of these but you remind me I had a Strawberry Shortcake toy that could transform into a strawberry scented cupcake.

Yet another core memory unlocked thanks to this sub. Hell yeah I loved it but completely memory holed it.

I had the backpack, and it had a weird hole in the lining somewhere that would eat my quarters for lunch and like every damn day I had to go crying to my sister's classroom for help finding them and she has never let me forget that shit. 🙃🙃🙃

I had a purple and pink one that was a present on my 6th birthday. I also had the white one in the picture that was a Christmas present.

I had PC and later Party. Had a PC Popple birthday cake for my 5th :D. My mom's friend made it for me and I went through great pains to make sure it was decorated like PC and NOT like Party, just because she was pink and I was a girl.

I had the orange one! I won it from a grocery store coloring contest when I was five! I felt so proud of that.
Feisty-Bluebird-5277@reddit
Yes! I had the white one

I had a fucking sleeping bag. It was perfect. I also had a purple small one. One of my earliest memories is my sleeping bag, though. Right after my parents divorced.
Classic 80s!

I had one that turned into a football, he was my best buddy❤️
TheREALBaldRider@reddit
I had the white and orange one

I may still have a purple popple in my mum’s attic. It was great for hiding notes in elementary school. Also to roll down the stairs for stuffed animal bowling
