Creepy Crawlers
Creepy Crawlers was originally released back in 1964 by Mattel, under the name Creepy Crawlers Thingmaker. It came with a little oven that was used to cook up chemicals called PlastiGoop, which came in a bunch of different colors and would harden into semi-solid rubbery replicas when heated. Due to safety concerns, Mattel discontinued it in 1978. However, manufacturer ToyMax gave Creepy Crawlers another try in 1992, this time with new safety measures.
