Hot Wheels Melt Your Own cars. It was similar to the Creepy Crawler thing. You got cubes of wax and molds to melt the wax in a little bucket and then pour into the mold and voila! You have a freshly made Hot Wheels. The melting bucket was encased in plastic, but I have to say, my brother was very crafty at getting the wax into the mold and then dumping the hot wax (or throwing it) on to me. It wasn't TOO hot by that point, but still left red marks.
Suckerman. ouch! My brother had a red one. It was THICK rubbery material with suction cups all over it. The idea was that you could throw it onto glass or any slick surface and it would stick. It did, sometimes. His favorite thing was to chase me around and WHACK me as hard as he could with that thing, and man it hurt! He hit my dad once and the thing ended up in the trash. My brother then told grandma that Suckerman was the ONLY thing he wanted that Christmas - and he got another one!
