[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 500045, member: 7379"] Time for the open belly Tauntaun is it, Lars? OK then! I remember buying a solid belly Tauntaun from Ware Toy Shop in Hertfordshire as a child, and then taking it home and excitedly opening it... to find that it didn't really do much! It didn't do as little as the Twin-Pod Cloud Car, but you can certainly see why Kenner quickly revamped it to add the open belly feature, which really improved the play value. Of course as an 8 year-old boy back in 1980 however, to say I felt conned was an understatement! I'd bought the inferior version when there was a new and improved one to be had! :lol: And of course, who could ever forget Kenner's brilliant contents description on the box, which promises the buyer 'One mammal'. That's not a purchase you'll make every day! :lol: Anyway, here's my mammal: [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 01.jpg"]50987._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 02.jpg"]50988._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 03.jpg"]50989._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 05.jpg"]50991._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 04.jpg"]50990._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 06.jpg"]50992._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 07.jpg"]50993._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 08.jpg"]50994._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="One Mammal - 09.jpg"]50995._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
