Pac-Man had all kinds of stuff. Like trading cards, Board games and plush toys. Tomy also made a neat set of Pac-Man wind ups. They ran along and chomped.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... -
There are Donkey kong ones, I still have Mario, but DK and Pauline are long gone. Pauline came with a mini DK arcade cabinet! There are a few other pac man ones, (one has a halo and angel wings?) Q*bert ones were out too, that's all of the PVC ones I can recall at the moment.Comment

I recall quite a few Pac Man items in stores back in the day...
One thing I did have a lot of were the Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man and Donkey Kong scratch game cards, where you rubbed off the dots to play the game.PUNY HUMANS!Comment

I had all those Pac mac PVCs... and the Donkey Kong ones too.
Bizzaro Megomauler is right about Pauline with the Cab. There was DK himself holding a barrel and DK jr on a vine as well. And of course... MARIO.

I still have the Mr and MRs Pac wedding PVCs somewhere around here.
I had a QBert that you wound up and he hopped as well.
I don't remember anything for Frogger though.

Thats a very good point. Those tron figures were great. My favorite tron game is still Disc of Tron. Its a challenge after a few levels!Comment

Qbert had some plush guys too in different sizes. There's a really rare stuffed Qbert snake out there too. Also the Qbert blow-mold banks are pretty cool too."Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you."Comment

Thanks for sharing your qberts with us, those are great! So theres no frogger at all out there? Thats a real shame. I would think they would have taken advantage of his license.Comment

I've never seen anything for Frogger that wasn't an arcade game. I do remember seeing Burger Time character PVC figures back in the day though...."Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you."Comment
