Boglins :: Caged
"From a swampy bog that time forgot... they're Boglins!"
Boglins were produced by Mattel/Action GT/Ideal
in 1986-94 and started life as a series of large,
rubbery monster handpuppets with moveable eyes which
were sold in "caged" packaging. There
were also several smaller versions, miniatures,
stickers and various other items as the line grew
in popularity.
Boglins were firstly produced by
Mattel in 1986 for the US market (which lasted about
two years), and then taken over by Action GT and
Ideal (also marked Seven Towns) for the UK/Euro
market. In 2000-01 the line was reissued by three
more UK/Euro companies (Lansay, Awesome Toys and
Vivid Imagination)with a
small, new line of toys.

Caged Boglins
Caged Boglins (not official name) were produced by Arco/Seven Towns in 1987. They were made of a hollow, harder plastic with jointed arms and came chained inside a small plastic cage which they were linked to via a little plastic chain The Boglins measured 3" long by 1.25" high. I've found two different molds and colours so far.
