I have waited years for one of these. I finally have the annoying rattle from inside a mego body. I feel so privilidged.
Jealous? I bet you are

Please don't get me started on the "Winks" as they used to be called on the old forum
Can't remember who started calling them that...
"When not too many people can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears,
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Isn't it a pity".
Now ya need a black one, a red one, a green one, and a brown one to complete the Wink set. Somebody had an ebay auction a few years back with a bunch of them. Made them sound like they were rare things. Wish I had kept it cuz it was funny.
I only have one wink, so far, and it's still rattling around.

It's a 'flash' of plastic that at one time was probably either in a neck or arm hole and is a remnant of the manufacturing process. Occasionally you will get a Mego figure with an annoying rattle inside it. This 'wink' is the source of the rattle.

I have a bunch of them and all of mine seem to have come from the neck hole. I haven't seen one the correct size to for the arm hole.

I thought the same, but one thing that does confuse me is I would expect the 'front/back' seam on the torso to be visible across the wink but it's not - strange.
