He's like a genie with no legs !! Mine is still in a box I haven't looked into
in about 25 years, even tho' it's been only two feet away from me every day,
(behind a fan).
WHAM-O was like a lab, spewing out clever enuff, scienterrific ideas, but in
a sort of crappy way. They weren't big on colors and fancy packaging.
They also came up with the Superball. (Think Flubber).
Their TV ad for this had kids trying to pull a Volkswagen, which we also had,
with about three of them. Of course we tried it, to little effect.
'Monsty' was stronger than yer average kid's magnet of the day. But,
certainly not as strong as the sorts of magnets you can get now from supply
catalogs or geek stores. Whaddaya expect from a genie with no legs?
