POOF-Slinky Model #115 Plastic Original Slinky Jr. in Box, Single Item, Assorted Colors
The POOF-Slinky 115 Plastic Original Slinky Jr. continues to be a constant entertainer as it walks down stairs or comes alive in a child's hands. This classic toy stretches like an accordion, bounces and walks down steps one end at a time while making that classic Slinky sound. Toy history was made when Richard James conducted an experiment with tension springs. During the experiment, one of the springs fell to the floor and began to "walk". The Slinky debuted 1945 at Gimbals Department Store in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and all (400) Slinkys for sale were purchased in 90-minutes. Since then, over 300-million Slinkys have been sold worldwide. The Slinky is filled with nostalgia and has been featured in Disney Pixar's "Toy Story" movie franchise. It's the official state toy of Pennsylvania and famous for one of the most popular jingles of all time, "It's Slinky". Though it was developed to be a toy, the Slinky was used by soldiers in Vietnam as an antenna and a therapy tool for hand eye coordination. Slinky Jr. is smaller than the regular Slinky, come in assorted colors and is made of durable plastic for long lasting wiggly-jiggly Slinky fun! This plastic Slinky Jr. comes boxed and perfect for presents, party favors, Easter baskets, grab bags, prizes and stocking stuffers. The Slinky is truly a timeless toy, fun for adults and kids alike.
