    Pilsbury Playthings



    Despite being in my 40s, I'll admit the sight of Poppin Fresh still brings me joy. That might have to do with me having some of the toys as a kid but more the fact that it's very rare that his delicious product makes an appearance in my home.......For more Fashion Mockery and 70's toy love visit us at Plaid Stallions.com

    I remember my older sister gave me a Poppin' Fresh doll for Halloween one year. As an adult, I found one at a toy show. It's a cute little toy.

      We had Poppin' Fresh and his female counterpart as squeaky toys. I think they may still be around here somewhere...

        Never knew about this pop-up puppet existing. I've always planned to buy the regular Poppin' Fresh because he's simply so cute and charming (and because I wanna poke his belly ) but I'm afraid of the rubber material being sticky due to the age. Anyone knows if they are prone to that issue?

            I've got Poppin' Fresh, some of the finger puppets, and a cool little can with actual popping Poppin' Fresh.

              From what I recall from my finger puppet collecting days there's a Grandpa that's really rare...

                There's a cat too. I think they are cute. It's a shame they don't use the rest of the family in commercials anymore.
                You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                  What was the cat's name? I see the pic on the can but not it's name anywhere.

                          Does it giggle if you press his stomach?
