My brother had all of these. Unfortunately one of our dogs ate them. I remember there were cartoons of this too.

I was such a tomboy! I had the big eyeball one and I had the gross green face w/boogers and stuff on it...but I always wanted the mummy face and my mom wouldn't buy it for me!

That was an AWESOME commercial-MADBALLS//////

My mom hated them!

I always wanted to have a Madball but for some reason my mom didn't want me to have one.

I remember this was the first toy that made me realize advertisors lied. I was 7-8 and saw the commercial where kids were playing with them, having fun scaring everyone. I just had to have one. I pestered my parents and they gave me extra chores to earn some money for it. After saving up enough I went out and bought one. I played with it for about a hour and realized it was no where near as fun as the commerical made it seem. I even brought it to school the next day and all my friends thought it was cool at first as well, but soon tired of it.

hey toys r us just released a new line of al the originals

My brother had the Freddy Krueger and Jason from Friday the Thirteenth.

I found one of my old ones recently and it looks to have fared as well as the SkullFace in the picture- it was seriously falling apart, practically disintegrating. I have the three "special" ones from the recent re-release.

i had the chopper and multiple foam and rubber ball characters

Wasn't there a version of these that had bodies? You put the head onto a peg and pressed a button and the head would fly off the body.

The comics that were part of the surge were so corny and full of puns that they literally dripped with humor. I still had good laughs reading them

i have a vintave one from the 70's and its squishy and rubber, and i have 6 of the real freakballs.

I love mad balls!!! I m so glad they are back!! Cant wait to get them all
