with fake screws molded in the plastic !


It's Wattoo Wattoo !

Wattoo Wattoo Superbird, Ceji-Lang, 1978, France

This is another one of my toys linked to childhood memories... Wattoo-Wattoo was a cartoon I loved as a child. Little birds from another planet bringing ecology to very stupid geese that were polluting all the time... 

Going to multiply ?
They have a bouncy string to make'em fly !









They have a squeezy whistle in the belly !
