many kids of today wouldnt enjoy gonks. They prefer action toys, and let's face it have you ever seen an eagle eye gonk? or a mighty morphin' power gonk? Now there's an idea. Andy |

I had a gonk with black fur fabric for hair. It was cut in a Beatles mophead style. I called him Georgeous after George Harrison. I wonder what happened to him? Must go and look in the loft! Sue |

Hi Andy When I was a kid our dog had a gonk that it used to play with. It was a knitted affair that Mum got from a jumble sale - most delightful when covered in dog saliva! lol. As our dog was a cross Jack Russell and Yorkshire Terrier the gonk was nearly as big as her. Jeanette |

Just sitting in the computer room, and glancing towards the window there are three furbees sitting on the sill. They put me in mind of Gonks, anybody remember them? Andy |
