Jigglers (or rubber jigglers, or oily jigglers) were unarticulated rubber figures with no wire armature, which allows them to jiggle when shaken, or when hanging from your rear-view mirror in the car.
Unlike my AHI Bendy Creature, I wasn't the original owner of this jiggler, but he's a Flea Market find I've probably had in the collection for at least 30 years. And for a 51-year-old, he's still looking pretty good. (The doll stand was a real necessity, since he was never capable of standing on his own two feet!)
AHI exploited various opportunities when it came to their rack toys, and licensed Universal Monster jigglers were no exception! They do turn up on eBay from time to time, although they are quite expensive, with the standard premium pricing when it comes to Creature merchandise!
Check back next week for another item from my Creature collection!
