Ok, I think of myself as a pretty business savvy person but sometimes, I really get stumped. Two Sunday's ago we went to some families house where there are also little kids. My typically clingy and jealous baby was mesmerized by what I think was the combination of all the other kids and and the cool new toys there. The one thing that he seemed to especially love was this Weebles Treehouse.

But I just have to wonder, what was Hasbro thinking. I haven't seen him spend this much time playing with anything else ever. I probably won't cry when the batteries die in it, but I don't think he will either because the one he originally played with didn't play the music either. But aside from the noise, I love this thing and can't imagine why in the world Hasbro stopped making Weebles. I guess the superhero junk they make is more profitable. I know I've bought plenty myself but come on. Getting rid of the classics!?!?!?
I did not have any idea that the Weebles were not made anymore! My attic is PACKED with them! I actually have the tree house too! Ebay here I come! And you right - the classics are the best!
ReplyDeleteWeebles Wobble but they don't fall down!! I'm nearly 36 years old and I can stil remember playing with my Weebles Tree House as a little girl. And I too LOVED that thing and LOVED all my Weeble people. Man, you've brought back some great memories. I'm going to Ebay right now to see if I can find ME one!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you were able to find it on Ebay. they do have everything.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest got a Weebles village set when she was 1, I think I better dig it out and see if the baby likes it!
