Fabulands!!!

Oh my God! Fabulands!! 

I LOOOOOVED my Fabulands when I was younger! And I still have a soft spot for them now. 

Produced by Lego (as you can see), Fabulands are like Lego-people but with animal faces. I adored them. I think they were intended as a transition point between the toddler-Duplos and the older-Legos. But it's always surprised me that Fabulands aren't more widely available. I'm guessing it's because they were never as popular. Although why they wouldn't be popular is beyond my comprehension. Have I mentioned that I adored them??

One of my favourites was Robbie Rabbit, whose job was to deliver bread. He had a basket that went on his back and two baguettes. 

My lil collection is now being enjoyed by the next generation, which is why I have none to show in person. 

Another clue about how my tendency to anthropomorphise animals came about...
