My brother and I used to collect the Spooky Kookies. I mean we actually collected them as kids when they were on the toy store shelves. I think I still have them somewhere. I know I have the skeleton in the red pants. He was my favortite. I even had him hanging in my dorm room in college.

Thanks for the Imperial post. As a kid, I loved their U.S. Infantry army men. Two came in each pack, and the soldiers always looked awesome. I recall having to argue with my mom that these were a better buy than a pack of 20 or so.

Holy childhood flashback, Batman!
I remember being at my cottage around the ages of 1-10 and always playing with a box of toys and things left over from my mother's childhood. The Impierial toy cataloge 1975 'Bite O' Fashion' looks EXACTLY like a toy that had always mystified me. It was an chunky, half- inch thick, Oreo on a string with a bite taken from it. One thing though... in 1975 my mother was 22.
Maybe this was a earlier version of the same toy?
Thank you, Plaid Stallions, for solving one of my earliest mysteries! I knew I hung around here for a reason! Keep up the great work and thanks again!

I have to admit it. I had the giant gator when I was 5 and used to stick my plastic cowboy + indian figures in his jaws.
