Title: [ID: The Underlands, Taco Bell] copter girl
Post by: hime on Wednesday 12 October 2011, 10:22 pm

So what is she? she's datestamped "2009 by georgei inc WS packaging china"
on the not pictured launcher there are screws like the kind fast food premiums have(i.e the triangle ones) finally on the pull tab it says "the underlands" and the "the" is upside down

She's a Taco Bell toy!

Here's an artist's rendering of the set:

"The Underlands" was apparently going to be a TV show for kids, but I can't find a whole lot about it. Trademarkia lists the trademark as "Abandoned". According to its website, it was about tiny people called "Underlings" who live in places we can't see and whose world defies gravity. You can read more about it on its website: http://www.theunderlands.com/Home.html

The lack of information leads me to believe that it never got off the ground. Its website also looks really unfinished.

Your girl's name is Hendon "Henny" Farling.

You're welcome!

If anyone has anymore information about this franchise, I'm kind of curious. It seems strange that it made it to a promotion at a major fast-food chain but never went further.
