Keypers
were made in the 1980's by Tonka
and consisted of large, hard plastic bodied adults and small
soft plastic bodied babies. The adult Keypers had a key
(with their name on) which locked and unlocked a door somewhere
about their body, and the baby Keypers had a slit in their
backs where you could store things.
The first series
of adult and baby Keypers had six different animal types
(including two with variations). They all had non glittery
eyes and short, mono coloured hair, whilst the second
series had 11 pairs with glittery eyes and long,
multi coloured hair. Five of these pairs were reissues from
the first series, some looking quite different, and there
were also six new additions. All adults came with various
accessories including a key, brush & a keyring which
they both slotted onto. Some also came with hats and neck
frills. The babies also came with brushes (slightly smaller
than the adults, no loop at the end for the keyring) and
other accessories such as bottles and bibs.
Along with the plastic toys
there were large plush adult Keypers, books, games and other
items.
