Subject: What on earth were they called?!
Written By: gemmawallace on 02/08/07 at 7:23 am
I'm trying to remember the name of a toy from the 80's. It was basically a round ball of fluff with some googly eyes attached and it had feet with paper you peeled off to reveal the sticky so you could stick them anywhere. What were they called!?

I'm not sure what the 'official' name is but I call them fluffy bugs. A quick Google search reveals I am not alone in this.

I always knew them as Warm Fuzzies, from "A Warm Fuzzy Tale" by Claude Steiner.
