My pick is Popples! I used to be crazy about the Popples cartoon. I especially loved the stuffed Popples; it was too fun rolling 'em into a snug, furry ball.
Although, as often as I check out thrift toys I have yet to find a Popple. Back in the late 80's, I had the smaller, adorably yellow Potato Chip. Remember her? Of all the Popples, she was my favorite. I wonder if Chip is packed away somewhere? Now I talk to friends, (coughJulieBeirele) and they have no clue what I'm talking about. Oh, how I miss the Popples!!! If any of you ever find one, I will be childishly jealous. I know many of you are thinking, just find one online, lady! But I can't. I have to thrift find it! When I do discover one I hope it is either Prize, Putter, Puffball or another Potato Chip. Any Popple will do I suppose, I just don't care much for the super pink popples; never been a pink girl.
"P-p-p-popples love to p-p-p-party!" Ring-a-bell? Please, just tell me you remember the Popples! Tell me you had one and used to roll it up into it's little pouch and toss it around the living-room. Better yet, tell me you HAVE one and I might just stop by to play! ;) Kidinnnng...I think....
Later Addition: This blog sparked a convo on FB about the different Popples people had/have. Many of us have forgotten the Popples names, so below I listed the (main) Popples' names along with their color:

*Pancake= Dark Purple
*PC (Pretty Cool)= Blue
*Party= Pink fur & Pink hair
*Puzzle= Orange
*Putter= Green
*Pretty Bit= Light Lavender
*PuffBall= White
*Prize= Magenta fur & White hair
There were also the small Pufflings!
