Product Description
Critter was conceived by chance, at the studio of a motion display company called Hankscraft Motors in NYC. It has a godfather called David Dear, creator of the fabulous Duck Mirror, the Rainbow Maker, and many other amazing products. The first four thousand Critters were made by hand, using a vintage Japanese gearbox from the 1950's found at a surplus store. The first place that sold Critter is called Mxyplyzyk, so, between Hankscraft, Mxyplyzyk, and Kikkerland, you get the idea what we're dealing with here. Essentially a no form follows no function object. Body and key colors are assorted, we pick color based on availability. Stainless steel with plastic feet.

Every one of these I have or had, including those I've given to my demolitionist grandchildren still work. I kind of wish a few would break so they wouldn't be so fascinating to them. These are really decent, quality toys, especially considering the reasonable selling price.
I'll have to hide any new ones I buy, at least for a while, so I can get to play with them!
OH, I should note that it still works great with one less leg! :)
Very unique conversation piece. My kids (9,7 and 2) love it!!
The toys look delicate, but for the most part, they are made with heavy gauge wire and stronger windup boxes than most toys. Our younger son literally ripped the box apart and sent his flying, but we couldn't see any damage, and it has worked fine for several months. Smart, rugged, bizarre designs are awesome for kids. Highly recommended!
update--these do NOT hold up to peanut butter. LOL son finally did break the spring, but I would still recommend this toy for a unique, NON-CANDY stocking stuffer or easter basket gift, or birthday party gift, or for an appreciation gift for a science-loving teacher's desk. :D
