Each of our GIANTmicrobes comes with an image and information about the real microbe it represents. They make great learning tools, as well as amusing gifts for anyone with a sense of humor.
I got to review two GIANTmicrobes products which were the Vinyl Doll Dr. Larkin and the Christmas Tree Mini Microbe Box. I could not be any happier with these cute educational products. My kids love the ornaments for the Christmas tree. They think they are so cute and can't wait to put them on the Christmas tree this year after Thanksgiving. My daughter plays with the Dr. Larkin based on the flu and the animated flip book that came with it.
Dr. Larkin vinyl figure comes with a flip book and a sticker! Each character is individually boxed and comes with an animation flip book and an action pose sticker.
The folks at GIANTmicrobes are at it again, this time introducing a line of plastic vinyl toys. These toys are departing from GIANTmicrobes usual fare in that they're more expressive characters inspired by symptoms of illnesses. There's Sniffles (rhinovirus or runny nose), Ahh-lbert (streptococcus or sore throat), Bellie (dysentery or stomach ache), and Dr. Larkin (flu). You get some nice swag with each figure, too - a sticker, and an animated flipbook. I think this is a good direction, since it gives them more markable characters. I don't know about you, but I can see Giant Microbes: The Animated Series.
GIANTmicrobes Dr. Larkin vinyl figure is $12.95
