Crawley Critter (aka Gloob) in green .
This lilac Crawley and one of my Clever Crater Critters are very pale in colour. Not sure if this is UV fading or more likely from colour change-over in the machine.
Crawley Critter (aka Gloob) in purple.
Crawley Critter (aka Gloob) in purple. This one has an indentation in the centre of the mouth and I think it is factory flaw rather than damage.
Kindly (aka Lunartic) in the dark blue colour.
As always Craig Halls’ book, Breakfast barons, Cereal critters and the Rosenhain & Lipmann Legacy, is my reference bible for cereal toys. This series is found on page 145.
