Some more non historical figures, these are called Mini Boglins.
Released in 1991 by Ideal toys which are rubbery plastic figures about one and a half inches high.
The Mini Boglins were organized in tribes. In 1991 there were 6 tribes with 6 members each: a chief and 5 ordinary tribe members. The figures had six regular colors: yellow, blue, brown, gray, light orange, olive green. Chiefs could also be silver, which made them more rare. The tribes were:
The Clumsies,The Greedies, The Army Guys, The Jokers
The Disgustings, The Rude Dudes, The Tough Guys
The Medievals, The Prehistorics, The Samurai.
