Just a fun little post here. With all the hype of the rare, obscure an expensive, sometimes it is nice to get a cheap little toy that has eluded you. Thanks to a tip from Josh, I finally picked up this oddball Tiger7 soakie. I kept seeing them without the chest sticker and after a couple years of passive looking, I finally picked up one of these guys. No shampoo left in it (fine with me), as I don't plan on having my hair and beard looking like a tiger mane. (Do tigers have manes or just lions?) Anyways, here is a nod to the simple joys of toy collecting.

Nice. I love the bolt.

that is so cool! that head sculpt is amazing. i call dibs on the next one that pops up!

josh if you find one and want to break up the set, I'll take the shampoo

Great score! Funny that they'd put a sticker on a soakie (and that collectors would expect it to be there decades later).

Allmost all of the soakies and bath/watercan toys had stickers on 'em.
Those polyethylene toys are so naive and primitive they're nearly impossible to resist.

I can't get a sense of the size.
Five inches? or are we talking bigger?

yup, the simple joy of collecting . saw this on e bay and had to have it . think it cost me like $14 . things dont have to be expensive to be cool . didnt know you were looking for the tiger7 shampoo bottle brian or i would have sent you links to the ones i have come across . maybe akumizer can bust out some of those watering can figures out of his totes . oh , the pickle dude is from 1967 and still has the tag .

speaking of lions and tigers . heres a cheapie score that i really like .
