Last month my daughter went to a boy-friend's fifth birthday party and came home with a green Tobar snake.  I hate snakes , I find them completely freaky and my daughter thinks its rather hilarious to try and scare me with "Slimy" which is what she called it.  Luckily this snake toy is sufficiently non-realistic to not freak me, however I have a ban on the rubbery more life-like variety as it I were to be cleaning under the bed and spotted this I would seriously have a heart attack! "Slimy" (I did explain that snakes are not actually slimy, not that I have ever touched one to find out!) is made out of bright green plastic jointed linked ...  Read the complete review

--Trobar Jointed Snake== We recently had a party for our little boy who turned 5! It seemed like an easy thing to do and I was more than happy to invite the whole of his class which consisted of around 30 children with a good mix of boys and girls. Booking the hall was easy and making the cake and all the food but the hardest part was getting all the 30+ party bags with the right sort of toys in the bags and it not costing an arm and a leg.

He has six over an inch long jointed body sections held together with plastic pins. It's not the best ...  Read the complete review

I have had so much fun looking through the pages of toys on here, oohhhing and aaahhhing over all the toys that either bring back memories or thinking 'Got that, got that, got that!' I had one of these snakes as a kid and loved it to bit, it was red like the picture here, with the orange and black circles. I was astounded by how this snake moved and although I am not sure it is 100% accurate for a snake, it gave me hours of fun as a child, trying to see if I could hold it by the tail and get it to not move at all!! My brother had a green snake and we used to undo the sections of each snake and mix up the green and red parts to make a multi-coloured ...  Read the complete review
