Reissues
Lots-a-Lots-a-Leggggggs were reissued in 1998-99 with a whole new line of characters. They had hard fabric noses and different labels (blue and yellow), so are easy to tell apart from the original line. Again, there were an awful lot of them!
Lil' Leggggggie ~ Collectables
"Collect us and see what fun we can be!"
The Lil' Leggggggie's had four pairs of legs and each wore a different hat which related in some way to their name. There were 24 of them, were about 9 inches long and dated 1998.

Lil' Leggggggie ~ Scrunch'ems & Keyrings
The little keyring butterflies look to have been redesigned without wings and turned into hair scrunchies. The packaging is Italian "Sciu' Sciu'" (which doesn't translate into anything), but a trademark was registered for Lil' Legggggggie Scrunch'ems, so I'm guessing this is them!
The caterpillars and butterflies were also sold as keyrings. The keyring butterflies were the same as the versions sold with the large plush toys, but had plastic clips rather than split rings.
