The stretch armstrong dolls are selling up to $40 now and the monsters, which are more rare, are even higher. There are pictures of it at the link.

Answer 2

I remember it! My cousin had both that one and Stretch Armstrong. We wanted those so bad but my mom said they weren't for girls. However, we did manage to make the goop come out. It was great! My aunt and uncle were NOT thrilled but it was great fun!

Answer 3

YEs - I think it was the swamp thing or something. We broke its skin and the toxic purple stuff came out.
