[11/21/99] Okay everyone, here's our chance to tell Toymax what
we want. On Toymax's official web site, they have a craft activity survey! Tell
them what new Creepy Crawlers molds you'd like to see. Show them there's still
an interest out here for Creepy Crawlers! Here's the link for the survey: Toymax
Survey. If that doesn't take you there, go to www.toymax.com, then 'Toy
Central', 'Creative Corner', then push the 'Tell Max' cloud-like button. Thanks
to fellow Collector Don Dortmund for this info.
[9/3/99]
The Toymax Goop color list
is now up to date. All the colors not marked in red are in
stock. In a few weeks, I’ll have the Toymax Mold Paks up to date also. They’re
doing an inventory of their warehouse at the moment. Hey, want to see some new
Toymax Mold Paks? I know I do. I heard there probably wasn’t going to be any
new ones this year. I’m going to write to Toymax and tell them we still love
Creepy Crawlers, and to make some more mold paks. Anyone else who wants to
write, send me an E-mail, and I’ll get you their address and contact info. They
can’t give up on Creepy Crawlers – it’s what made their company! Maybe if
enough people write, they’ll see that there is still an interest in Creepy
Crawlers.
[8/30/99] Well, it’s that time of the year again. The
Thingmaker Collector’s Page’s Birthday. As sort of a tradition, I’ve given the
site a facelift. Let me know what you think. No real news to report. Goop is
harder to find in stores, even TRU. About the only place you can always find it
is direct from Toymax. When calling for goop, be sure to tell them there still
is an interest in Creepy Crawlers, and suggest they make some new Mold Paks. I
added a Goop Color list, and a Toymax Mold list. This should help when you
order items direct from Toymax. Look under the Toymax Pages for those lists.
I’m also compiling a Mattel Thingmaker list which will be ready soon.
[7/11/99] I can't believe some of the
crazy prices people are paying on the Internet auction sites for Toymax Goop.
HEY EVERYONE, Toymax is still selling goop for normal prices! I think the only
color they don't have is clear. See the News item below from 2/25 for their
phone number and who to talk to. They also have many mold sets still available.
So check with them before you shell out too much cash on the auction sites.
When you do call them, Tell them "John from the Internet" sent you :)
Also tell them you'd like to see them make some more new Mold Paks. They need
to know that there is still an interest for Creepy Crawlers!
[2/25/99] Clear goop finally available
again direct from Toymax (800-222-9060). They have a new "automated"
customer service system. Just be patient and stay on the line for a customer
service rep. You'll either get Mickie or Terri. Terri is new, and is very nice.
It's $8 for 3 bottles. They also have the Bug's Life labeled 5-paks available
for $12. I still can't find it in stores around here.
