Description
This was kinda like the next step from shrinky dinks. There was a couldren type pot that heated up, and the top had a bunch of bug-like forms. You'd pour in the toxic plastic/rubber liquid material...bake it up, and presto "Creepy Crawlers". They were really flexable like custom rubber bugs. Very cool.

Friend had one, I was denied. Heh I understand why, even understood then. I was always tempted to chew on these, although I never gave in to the temptation. I guess I had a precognition of gummy worms back then :o)

BEST CREATIVE TOY EVER MADE. This was such a great product - it kept me busy for hours. Pour goop into molds, drop them in the "Thinkmaker" oven, and a few minutes later, you have fantastic bugs. Additional accessories included, Mini Dragons, Creeple People, Eeeeks, Fright Factory, Fun Flowers, and more. Mattel stopped making them, as stupid kids with stupid parents burnt themselves. Today, that would be a major lawsuit (stupid century). Oh, yeah, they were reintroduced, but this time but various companies (Jakks Pacfic, Flying Colors), but the ovens now use light bulbs which take forever; you get less goop, and less included molds. Just like Mattel's Hotwheels, today's versions are CRAP. I found all the originals on Ebay. Poor kids today...
