Title: [ID: Magic Trolls] Purple plastic bug that links up with insects
Post by: starricat on Friday 28 October 2011, 07:49 am
Hey all, I'm so sorry that I don't have a picture to go with this, but I'll try to explain this toy as best as I can.

From what I remember this toy is a purple/green plastic bug with clear green wings (maybe with sparkles) I got this toy in the 90's so it's definitely a 90's toy. There were also other green/purple plastic bug toys that came with it and you could link them together. I think they had yellow antennae maybe. I'm really curious as to what this insect toy "train" is and if anyone knows what i'm talking about. Hopefully I'll add a pic when I come across it in my stuff. I've searched on the net and didn't find anything.

Was it a toddler toy? About how big were the bugs?

Maybe something from Blinkins? Or I think those baby trolls by Applause had a bug train accessory....

Since it turns out it's turtles it was a lucky guess! I knew the magic troll babies line had a train thing with it and in my mind I thought it might be bugs - if I'd have looked up a picture of what I was thinking of and saw it was turtles then I probably wouldn't even have mentioned it!
