This new toy looks oddly familiar but I can't quite place it. Does anyone know where, if at all, they have seen something like this outside of Neo? It's bugging me that I can't place it.

It could be partly because the eyes look like other Neopets eyes? Like it's the facial expression rather than the item that's looking familiar?

I know what you mean - had a similar feeling!

it kind of reminds me of a type of toys from my childhood... they had something to do with trash? like critters living in dumpsters and what not lol. I'll try to find a name / picture. not sure if that's the same association you were having :D but I'm 26 and from europe so maybe this lines up

 

EDIT: found it - I was reffering to "the trash pack" ... little toys that literally come in trash cans. :D
here's a trailer from back then. quality is terrible but you get the idea, maybe it will kickstart your memory if this is what you meant kute :)

HA! My son and I LOVED the Gremlins movies. Can't wait for the remake :dance:

Kute hasn't seen Gremlins?? You need to rectify this, STAT!

I'M getting the "that's familiar" vibe from that toy now, lol. ?‍♀️ It's definitely the eyes that're doing it for me so I'm guessing it is another Neo-thing.

WAIT, NOPE, this item's a straight up rip.

Let's just take this Kiko and chop its arms off... who needs them when you've got no legs, huh? We'll even tie a rope around it so you can drag it along behind you.

Just spotted where another example of this has gone on...

Remember the Quiggle Fountain prize from DD?

@Angeló thought it was an edit of this item.

But I've found the actual item on the start screen of Wingoball. (which it was a prize for)

I thought the same thing when adding it to the database the other day. In fact, I even searched to see if we had added it previously (we find items in advance sometimes) because it looked so familiar.

The more that i think about it, it has to have been a combo of this armed kiko, and the other thing. RIP OFF.  literally.

They can't do much with Kiko poses unfortunately especially in toy items

they're balls with arms

During AC, I often confused those silly Kikos for the yooyuball Image result for Neopets yooyuballs :lmaosmiley:  If I remember correctly, their Peophin Goalie was always face-planted down, admitting total shame of her mistaking the yooyuball for her teammates?

Fruit and Nut Kiko Taffy

Now, made with real Kiko arms! It's not the "Fruit and Nuts" that make it crunchy...

My life is complete, also Scoobs wins the internet today!

I knew something like this had to exist in some reality, I didn't realise it'd actually be this one. :lmaosmiley:

Just to clarify, I made up that description. The real description is this:

Fitting into your pocket easily, this taffy will replace all chocolate bars.
