Let me tell you about "Germs."
They were these little immobile pieces of rubber that looked like monsters, but were supposed to be germs. Each one came with a test-tube and a description of a fake disease that the germ caused. They were made in 1988. [SOURCE]


I used to have the "Sneeze"
(He's the green buy on the far left of the middle image above.) and I used to take him everywhere, including church.
I am not sure what I was thinking, I mean, are you not taught as a kid, NOT to play with germs? *slaps forehead*
If I am not mistaken, I got him a dollar store, so they toy as an item must have been on the way out.
They were made in 1998 only apparently which was the year I was 10 years old.
(Yes, my real age is posted, that's okay.)
I didn't think anything of it back then, but now I wish I would have had them all.
In Ft.
Lauderdale I was a cocktail party my friend hosted for us and I saw the host had the entire collection on his wall and I was so jealous. Not only is he the first person that I have seen that knew about them, that bitch had them all. I briefly thought about absconding with them, but put a band-aid on that idea and went back to the party.
I search
E-Bay all the time, I have been outbid twice this week on a few. (I am the highest bidder on
one now though, don't outbid me kids!)
If you come across one somewhere, a garage sale, a friends house, the doctor's office in Fresno, who knows, swipe it for me please.
