    Also, that little hook on the base lifts up, and you pop the little black shackle on the figures into it to clip it onto the base.

    I love any Polly Pocket style toys, I still have so many of mine. Basically, any old or weird toys were always neat to me. I recently found out that most of my toys *were* old weird vintage toys to begin with. I grew up with toys from 10 & 20ish years before I was born, so now I know why I have such a love of 70s & 80s toys as well!
