My latest piece covers the Dino Magic Volcano Playset which features "magic" eggs that you can dissolve in the volcano to reveal the surprise dinosaurs within. Oh the suspense!

Holy shit, those eggs remind me from these "Mutant bags" or whatever, which I used to collect when I was a kid! Basically you just bought a bag that needed to be dropped into hot water so that the mutant would appear. Wouldn't be surprised if they'd were from the same company, because I recall that they also had common, rare and ultra-rare ones.

Anyways, great piece you got there Rog.

Hrm, I remember those too but they weren't called Mutant Bags. Do you happen to know what they were actually called? But yeah, there have been a lot of "dissolving" toys in the past, and I've almost always liked 'em.

I like that it wasn't the same boring dinosaurs that're always used in toys. The archaeopteryx was pretty sweet.

Well, took a while to search, but I finally managed to find out the name! They were called: Trash Bag Bunch

I even found a site dedicated to the toy line: http://www.toyarchive.com/TrashBagBunch.html

Quote:
Trash Bag Bunch were produced by Galoob in 1991. This toyline was about recycling and the enviroment. This idea also spawned another toyline in 1991, Captain Planet. Around 1991, the whole planet was getting geared up for ecology and issues about ozone.
This line's gimmick was that each figure was bought in a bag. You could'nt tell which figure it was. The bag would be dropped into water and begin to fizzle. The bag would break open, and turn into mush. The water turns green and this mush floats to the top. The figure falls to the bottom of the glass. The idea was the bag was Bio-Degradeable! This line has some very colorful figures. They ranged from mutant monsters, killer robots, armored humans with huge guns.
There was no cartoon or comic follow up, just a small paragraph which I add into each section. The toy line faired well, and did have a follow-up second series which was never produced. The good guys are called the Disposers, while the bad guys are called the Trashors. Each figure is around 1 inch tall and they do not have any poseable arms or legs.
Ah, I always found those toys really cool back then, although I only bought 4 of them. I was even able to recall all the four figures I got!( Thank god they were all mutants/robots, not lame ass humans)

My ultimate favorite was the mutant I got from the very first bag I bought:



MUCKOID!!!!!

I also recall having Trash Blaster, Slobber and Sewer Rat.

EDIT: Lol @ story lines
