The bear is mad pimpin'. I don't know what the other little guy is meant to be, though - a "Mr. Potato Head" with his face shot off? This is not at all meant disparagingly, I like the proportions and detail. I honestly don't recognize it.

I just love these.

I just made these for me and the kids to mess about with, practice figs to help me get up to speed.. don't think anyone would want to buy them.

and yes, Mr Bump did have something to do with it....

thanks all

The toy bears were from Eureka :)

This is a great idea! Don't sell yourself too short, looks like you might have some interest already! Giant toys vs. 15mm toy soldiers (painted green), now that would be fun!

I like them both. They are simple figures yet really kind of cute 8)
