4.0 out of 5 stars Great toy, Great little book, October 20, 2000

By 

Joe Shellard (Dumfries, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Official Icky Poo Book with Toy (Klutz) (Paperback)

I bought my Icky Poo in a pack with 2 paddle ropes - the icky poo - and the book. I was 12 at the time and I am now 15, and I looked this up because I lost one paddle rope and the other snapped recently after 3 years of faithful service. The icky poo is just so much fun, even for one so mature as myself. (?)It's like a big, thick, sticky elastic band with a flat head at one end which sticks to paper and adds weight for zapping and zinging. Techniques for these and and other activities based on them are provided in the short book, which is exceptionally funny considering it is supposedly aimed at 6 to 8 year olds and is essentially an instruction manual. It's an entertaining read, anyway, but the games themselves aren't all workable. There are some gems such as paper bag banzai and lunch table poo, but you'd probably be just as well playing with a friend and seeing what games you come up with spontaneously. I can only fault this product by asking what were they thinking when they decided to include only one paddle rope with this edition. You will need 2 for any decent games. and eventually they will lose their "ick" (although you can wash them) and get lost and snapped and suffer the inevitable wear and tear that any good toy does. So why aren't they sold seperately?

I first got my Icky Poo bookm when i was 12 and i have loved icky poo ever since. I dont know what id do without my icky poo. Sure it may sound like a sick title, buyt really once you see the icky poo youll love it so much youll never forget it. If icky poo was never made id probaby die. I think that they should make more and more of them and never stop because one just simply iusnt enough. So please please buy this book it will be a memory youwill cherish forever. You will also crave icky poo just like me when i got my first one. This sticky paddle is the best ever in the whole wide world. So please dont fret buy the icky icky poo poo

5.0 out of 5 stars Flypaper Trash Ball, March 12, 2003

By 

Bradley Anderson (Mesa, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Official Icky Poo Book with Toy (Klutz) (Paperback)

Icky Poo is a not just a toy, it is a tool. It has helped unleash the kid in me. Nothing brings more joy into my life than my Icky Poo and my wife. Two essential items to a great relationship. I remember many years ago learning Fly Paper Trash Ball, a game that will reach your inner feelings. My buddy, Cory, and I went in together and bought an Icky Poo Pack. We each got a paddle. Wow, was that fun. I remeber many times running around and around the dorms, in hopes to land an Icky Poo on Cory's Face. What a joy to me. I love Icky Poo.
