Character inspiration from classic toys

[Boll Weevil]

The other day I was browsing teh intarwebs for toys I had as a kid when I came across the Tomy Mighty Men and Monster maker (http://www.hyattart.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1653). I got many hours of enjoyment as a kid out of this toy. I started playing Champions in 83ish and vaguely remember statting up some characters based on some of the outputs. None of those have survived.
Have any of you older folks either illustrated a character or charactered an illustration using this old toy?

I spent many, many hours with one of these as a kid. And I'm sure I would again if I got my hands on another one :D

I loved that thing. Don't remember what happened to it, or the 'Go Van Gogh'(?) similar thing for cars.

A polymorph brick character made from Lego bricks. Hey, I once saw a retcon origin story of Tony Stark and how he built a toy Iron Man from erector pieces. If he can do it, so can I. Lego man lives!

This thing sounds a lot like the old "Creepy Crawlers" toy bug maker from waaay
back in the decades before the creation of RPGs. I used to have one myself.
