I love this monster version of the playdo fuzzy pumper barber shop even though it doesn’t make a lot of sense. Dig the perm on the skeleton. Charlie sent in these great pics of the Count Creepyhead playset, something I’ve never actually seen before.

Play Doh Fun Factory-esque stuff was really a lot of tactile fun. It didn’t matter that you couldn’t actually make something cool-looking like you could out of modeling clay, but it was really fun to squish.
Check out “Count Badhairday” in the chair…
“Blah, I told you a little off the top, blah!”
“Hey kids! Create your favourite monsters, then make their heads explode!”
This could have been the precursor to a “Scanners” playset. 🙂

And the smell when you opened up that can…
I need both of these toys.
