Pop beads!
« on: August 31, 2016, 04:05:51 PM »
I found these pop beads in with some 80's toys and ponies I bought. Anybody grow up with these? They look like they would have been fun. Please share stories if you grew up with them.

Are there collectors of these? I'm looking to either sell these or I might end up donating them to thrift store if they aren't desirable. They look fun though because of how the beads snap together.

I did.  I used to love Pop Beads.  :) I even had some unicorn ones. They were fun until the connector broke off and you couldn't use them anymore.

I think I had some beads like those when I was little.
Cannot have anything scented in the house, unfortunately. Seeking the unscented, magnetless variant of Thistle Whistle. (And wishing the other Sunny Scent ponies got similar ones, because they're lovely. *sigh*)

I loved pop beads I had a huge bucket full. I had to play with them on my top bunk bed causey little brother would swallow them. When asked why he told my mom "because Iddon't want her to have them"  lol he was only 2 or 3 at the time

I think I remember having access to some of these. I don't think they were mine though. I liked to put them in a long string and swing it around. You could hear the air around it moving, it was awesome.

Those were so much! They made different kinds- I swear I had some unicorn ones and bigger ones like neon star shapes.  I might still have some at my parents.
