80s Awesomeness! ~ 26

SHRINKY DINKS!!!


These were one of the super awesome 80s toys that you just couldn't get enough of, despite the racial slur in the name. What you did with these gems was you colored this waxy plastic sheet, cut out the character and put it in the oven for a set amount of time. If your oven had a window, you could actually watch them shrink down. Otherwise you put in a big sheet and got out an inch by inch plastic figurine. What you did with them when they were shrunk was up to your own imagination. Even though they were pretty pointless, you just had to have all of the sets! They were rad!

OMG! I JUST made some of these last week with a couple friends. XD It was a ton of fun. The pendants and earrings turned out well, but the rings didn't. :(
