Lots-a-Lots-a-Leggggggs :: Reissues

"The outrageous caterpillar with lots-a-sneakers, lots-a-socks, and lots-a-lots-a-leggggggs!"

Lots-a-Lots-a-Leggggggs was produced by Commonwealth in 1984, and again in 1998. They were colourful, plush caterpillars with a multitude of legs, wearing multi-coloured socks with sneaker-printed feet. In Greece they were produced by El Greco, in Italy by Gig and in France by Ideal. Some are also marked with Hasbro.

They were sold in the UK, US and parts of Europe under varying names:
  • UK & US: Lots-a-Lots-a-Leggggggs
  • France: Mille Pa-Pattttttes
  • Italy: Tante Tante Gambe
  • Greece: Trexalitsa

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.

These ones had five pairs of legs which could light up (blinked) and were about 14 inches long. They also each came with a small butterfly on their backs which doubled as a keyring. There were lots of colours produced, at least ten.

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.
