    Yeah! I remember those! I actually have seen a few around, but they are cheaply made using plastic. In fact, the one that I seen was only about a month old, and the mallet handle was already bent and jacked up.

    I believe I had one when I was little, (about 23 years ago). Not sure what it was made of though.

    I like the design. Simple and bear-y beautiful.

    Kinda reminds me of my childhood, but my kids would say that I probably hammered Saber Tooth tiger teeth in to a rock or something.

    Very nice! I love the idea... but now I'm thinking round pegs for the nieces and nephews I like... and square ones for the ones who annoy me. (Did i say that outloud???) Of course I like them all the same.......

    I never had toys like that when I was a little kid, But I do remember My Dad handing me a 16 oz claw hammer, a bag of nails,
    and telling me to build a fence around my mothers garden to keep the rabbits out --- if I wanted vegetables on the table come dinner time.
