Okay, for several months now I've been trying to remember the name of a stuffed animal toy, that had its own books and I believe a cartoon show. It was around the same time as pound puppies, so probably circa 1985-1988.

Basically, they came in different colors, the one I had when I was young was purple with pink accents; they were some sort of creature--reminiscent of really girly looking gremlins I think--that could either be the animal, or they could roll up into balls. The stuffed toy had a pouch on the back that you could tuck the head, legs and arms into to make it the ball.

The closest name that I can think of is furrbles. But I've been searching the internet and have had no such luck. I hope someone could help me remember they name. Over the years I've lost track of my own and the book I had with it. Thanks.

I know what your talking about! I had one... a purple one... lol I am thinking Bobbles.. or something like that. Gosh now you got me wondering.. and searching.

Bubble Bobble! LOL found it

Umm I'm thinking I migh be wrong after all... I think bubble bobble was an old nintendo game...

Your searching for Popples... and I loved them too! I had a purple one! http://www.popples.org :D

Thanks so much. I think the purple was most popular. Yea! My sanity has been saved.
