Does anyone remember Popples? They where my favorite toy as a kid (so much so I own  two!  ::)) I was wondering when the cartoon came out, thanks!

Oh yeah!  Totally!  I had a blue one!  They were pretty cool...they were a stuffed toy but then you could stuff them inside themselves and make a ball! ;D

My niece had an 'all new' popple for Christmas a few years ago, it has light up ears and giggles..I remember the originals, I know it was a cartoon too, but I'm not sure if it aired over here..shame I would have liked to have seen it.  I remember listening to it on tape and reading a book that went with it in class when I was about 7.

They also made fair boxing gloves...  :D  ::)


I think the cartoon aired around 1986/1987.

I still have my Popple!  I think he was white with purple fabric.  Actually, I"m not sure...I know something on him was purple.  I'll have to dig it out.  I loved that thing!  I don't remember the show, really.

I remember them very well, they came in all these bright, colors. I never had one as a child though.

Sure do. I remember getting the purple one (Pretty Bit?) for Easter one year during a scavenger hunt. I remember I would stuff her ears along with the rest of her body whenever I would roll her up so she could look like a perfectly shaped ball.

I also had a "baby" Popple (basically just a minature version). It was white and dark turquoise, and I think it was called Puff Ball. It was so cute but one day it just disappeared, and I haven't seen it since.

I remember asking for a purple popple when I was about4 and finding one under the Christmas tree.  I don't remember anything about them though.

I do remember Popples, but hadn't thought of them in many years.
I never had one as a kid.
