 I don’t know who this handsome boy is but I love him greatly.

Edit: I’m doing a bit of digging, and I found this website with a bit of information. It seems they were sold in Europe and the United States, according to this handy link here:
http://www.ghostofthedoll.co.uk/lotsalegs.php

I’ll keep looking to see if there’s any information on our little guy(s) here. You’ve got me quite curious, and I think I like these things!

I think I've managed to find out the brand! (Hopefully! ^^; )
They look like Lots-a-Lots-a Legs which from what I googled were caterpillar toys from the 80's :P

Edit: Just noticed you knew the brand hahaha, so sorry ^^; Im guessing he'd be somewhere from Europe or USA? (Possibly UK, France, Greece or Spain?)  Does this fabulous little guy have a tag? XD
Haha once again im sorry should of read the title properly lol


(Their faces are hilarious XD What a fabulous little caterpillar)

funny i was on there but couldn't find any info on the 2 headed one, it must be a European release. yes very cute. not sure if im going to keep him or not.
this one might have come over to new zealand with the owner. not sure if they were ever released here. i just remember the single headed ones and so wanted the really long one back in the day.

Kind of sucks that it doesn't have a country on it, I think the UK/USA ones where made by Hasbro? If it has a manufacturer name on it, that'll be able to tell you where he's from :)
Also from eBay listings most of them are going for $20-30 or so but if you can't find any information on the one you've got he might be pretty rare, I'd put him up for a bit higher if you plan on selling him :D

There's one on ebay right now still in box. (Since no links, look up LOTS-A-LOTS-A-LEGGGGGGS Double).. there's also two loose orange ones...

What's interesting is the one on ebay it's name is "Double Trouble"

While the backcard on GOTD says "Double Header".

 :lol: More mystery. Probably one is US and one is UK?

oh thanks for that. so great to get more info and a picture of it mib.
i think double header is the name for the 2 headed release ones and double trouble is the name of that particular purple caterpillar which suits it  :lol:

See those quite often at the goodwill bins, but never a two-headed beasty. He's cute! Glad you were able to get an id.

I've never seen this two-headed friend. But it reminds me of my life-long best friends favorite stuffed friend! She carried it around at school until 8th grade  :lol: We were weirdos together.
