Kenner Milky and pals

[RSS]

You know I've had a lot of fun at the expense at Kenner's "Milky the marvelous milking Cow" toy with easy comments like "they must have been drunk that day" surfacing. However a deeper look into the Kenner 1978 catalog provides the insight that Milky was not the result of a vodka soaked luncheon but actually a premeditated series of preschool toys based on animals.

I remember that aardvark for some reason. Did Kenner reissue him in the 80s? Or maybe there was a kid's game that used the same idea?

By the way, that shot of Milky above makes her look like the illegitimate love child of Mick Jagger and Carol Channing.

I had Milky and Gobbles. My sister and I had a lot of fun with these. Have not thought of these in a very long time. Thanks!

Try grabbing a real cow or goat by the tail. I bet that would be fun for the kids as well.
