Why Can't They Make Really Cool Toys Like This Anymore?

[misterlowercase]

Mr. MacPooch is a proper lunting toydog,

and would undoubtedly provide hours of fun!
Keep that machine oil handy kids!

:P
For those who may be unfamiliar with the term lunting,

it's an archaic Scots word for smoking a pipe while walking,

That's so cute, but I don't think the contemporary market will bear it.

There are some lessons which we must learn ourselves, advice be damned.

Wow. That is one cool toy.

How long ago were these toys made/sold?

Sorry if I missed it in the pics, but who makes the toy?
BTW, "pipe smoking bear" is off the mark....the toy is a dog.

However, I'm not going to Google either. You all have scared the curiosity right out of me!

I discovered a similar strain of that term when once researching Boswell grizzly pipes,

which landed me here...

That is fantastic - you will always have a buddy to share a pipe with - and I mean Mr MacPooch - not the whole Google thing.......

Learned long ago to be careful what you search for on Google. I will pass on this one.

Hey, and lets add alcoholic toys to the list...

I added this one, just because it makes me happy :lol:

 

[phil67]

It always amuses me with the odd and non-related pictures you get when doing a Google search for images. How the hell did Kevin qualify as a pipe smoking bear! :lol:

 

[pappymac]

Phil67, you really had to go there didn't you.

 

[shaintiques]

That toy is Aweome! Thise were the good old days.

Hmmm.... maybe it just means that he has great Search Engine Optimization skillz?

In this particular case having a great SEO doesn't seem to be very complimentary. Especially considering the fact that his picture came up first with your search! :lol:
