Now Super Impulse Toys is bringing back Stretch Armstrong to entertain a new generation of kids. Super Impulse has made a reputation for taking classic toys that were big hits and reproducing them in miniature form with their World's Smallest toy line. While the World's Smallest Stretch Armstrong is reduced in size from the original toy, small enough to hold in the palm of your hand actually, it still has the flexibility to be wrapped up like a giant pretzel or have its limbs tugged really far apart. Just like the original, once you are done stretching the toy it amazingly returns to its normal size and shape.
My son and daughter have really enjoyed tugging Stretch Armstrong in a variety of shapes and directions. It really kept their attention for awhile when we first gave it to them and they've brought it back out several times to play with. My son thought the toy was so cool that he snuck it to school one day and said all the boys were in a frenzy to take a turn with it on the playground at recess.
Because of its small size, the World's Smallest Stretch Armstrong makes for a great item to amuse children while traveling on a family vacation. It is also just the right size for an Easter basket gift or stocking stuffer at Christmas. It can also be a fun gift for an adult who likes to keep a few toys at the office as it is just to right size to tuck away in a desk drawer. While Super Impulse's Stretch Armstrong may be small there is no limitations to the fun you can have with it!
Other retro toys that Super Impulse has made tiny working versions of include Hot Wheels, Etch-a-Sketch, Silly Putty and Rubik's Cube. For more information, visit superimpulse.com/our-brands/worlds-smallest
That's a pretty cool toy, even an adult like myself would have fun stretching his arms!
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! I grew up in the 80's and saw this dude, but had no idea it stretched like that. How funny! History has a habit of repeating itself I guess.
ReplyDeleteWe have a road trip coming up and this World's Smallest Stretch Armstrong would be perfect for entertaining my stepson in the car. I would rather him not have too much screen time and this toy could break that up! Thanks :)

ReplyDeleteOh my this is just too adorable!! I would love to pick one of these up for my daughter she would have a blast with it.
ReplyDeleteOh this would be nice to have for myself! I love the stretchy arms and the small size. This would be a good stress reliever for me. I can pull and stretch this toy's arms and I know this will reduce my stress, just like popping bubble wrap.

ReplyDeleteI remember years ago when Stretch Armstrong came out. My brother had one and we all played with it. It is funny how these toys are still around. I will have to check out this web site for my little nephew because my sister and her family travel a lot. Thanks for sharing the information.
