Stretch-arm strong

LEGEND · #1 30-08-2007

Anyway has anybody got one of these or ever heard of one for that matter. I was sorting out my cuboard the other day and i found the one that i got when i was about 3 years old. And i am 14 years old now so that makes it 11 years old. But they are just so cool. They can stretch up to 4 foot long and can keep their shape for while as-well. They stopped making them a good couple of years ago. So could it be classed as a vintage toy. I will post a picture up shortly. I lost its cloths a couple of years ago, so may be un-suitable for young children.

Ha, we had one and the clothes went missing too. I used to bite it all the time and Id try biting the head which was rock hard.
I remember it finally gave up after a long pull and lots of goo came out

Is it mint?
They can fetch good money with toy collectors.

I had an incredible hulk (an original plastic toy-action man size) but was missing his shorts. I was told that a mint one with his shorts could be worth about 150squid with the right collector!!!

Well worth keeping those toys in good condition!

Quality, yet quite disturbing
