I looked it up. Threatened with a $2,500 fine per egg and detained for a few hours, but then let go with no charges filed.

Kinder Eggs: Some eggs are not at all kind.

It's a kinder, gentler egg.

I LOVE these things! Not the chocolate so much, but the toy. I am almost positive you could take a trip to Canada to buy them.....hmmm, road trip!!

Fucking rich kids.

Yes, my mom was a witch, and made snakes in the basement of the trailer. That's what she told us, and that's what we believed.

It was a question on QI "The most confiscated item intercepted by US customs" or somesuch. Amazed me.

I'd offer to send some, but now I've put that in writing I've lost any chance of pleading Not Guilty.

I'll buy one every now and then for you and take photos. Oh and Bruce is right - the quality of the toys varies enormously. Especially as they often have a collectible set of figures. If you're having one every 10 months or so, you get NO fun out of a little plastic crocodile in a hat or whatever it is. And yet an office college of mine used to buy them off the sandwich trolley almost every day, and she was disappoint too. Again with the crocodile with the fishing pole!

Those are cool, but they smell like burning tires.

Yeah, the chocolate isn't much to write home about.

This is how they were advertised in the 80s:

Dana - I see the face and I am afraid to click.

Sundae · 09-08-2012, 06:07 AM

You're right bbro.
It's worse when it moves and speaks.

DanaC · 09-08-2012, 06:16 AM

Chocadoobeeee!

Razzmatazz13 · 09-08-2012, 10:40 AM

Yeah that thing is terrifying... especially since it speaks in tounges.
