Vintage Tupperware Toys or TupperToys

Colorful interchangeable Tupperware animals
When we were kids, my mom bought us these awesome Tupperware toys. I believe these toys were released in 1979/1980. Did you have any of them? Above are the colorful animals you could mix and match middles, legs, heads, necks - kinda creepy if you think about it. 


Vintage orange Pick 'Em Up Truck
Tupperware pick-up truck for boys.
My brother owned this orange toy pick-up truck called the Pick 'Em Up Truck. Underneath the truck was a soft sponge-like material that allowed the truck to pick up little yellow toy blocks.

Vintage Tupperware party set plates, cups and small cake taker.
I think my cousins or friends had this vintage Tupperware party set. I love the earth tone colors - brown, yellow, avocado and orange. The kit included child size tiny cups, plates and even a cake taker. It was basically adult style Tupperware made smaller for us kids. So cool!

Vintage Tupperware Shape O Ball toy.
I know someone in my family had this vintage Tupperware Shape O Ball toy back in the 1980s. Maybe my cousin or my younger brother. It was a squared-off ball half red and half blue. The ball had cut-out shapes and yellow plastic blocks a child could pop into the cut-out. To remove the blocks, the ball would open in the center to release the yellow shapes.

My mom got me the party one but slightly different. I still have a mug, a bowl and a pitcher. It's adorable.

The shape ball was absolutely in my house growing up and man, the mix and match animals? I forgot those even existed. Well done referencing those.

My grandmother had all of these and all the family kids loved them!! I totally forgot about the Tupperware child's set until I saw it again. So cool!

Nope they were released in 1967-1973 unfortunate that when I outgrew those toys; Pops A Lot , the Ball of Shapes and Plastic Animals , they were sold at a yard sale in 1978-1979 or given away to charity
