Professional Ducks
Ducks don’t have to be the same Quacking, swimming, eating, mating birds. If the Makers can get the Chinese workers to imagine a bit, and if the buyers are suckers for cute things, then you can make Ducks that are Tennis players or Station Masters or even Pirates. The following picture is the proof:

It is amazing to see how much creativity goes into such little things, by paying 0.5 cents to a Chinese factory worker for a toy that might cost 5 cents to manufacture and gets sold for 97 cents in the US.
PS: 0.5 and 5 cents are not actual numbers, They are mere exaggeration. 97 cents is naked truth though.








Awwww so cute!!!
Mickey, minnie, donalt, daizy, goofy etc. also came from the same imagination!
lol they look cute..but don’t Chinese stuff,they are supposed to contain some bad stuff…
Pirate is lovely
@vishesh

Reema
Awwww so cute!!!
Aye! Cute is the key marketing word.
Sakhi
They look sooooooo cute
Indeed.
And the price factor is a reality you will have to accept!!
Yes, I have come to!
Mickey, minnie, donalt, daizy, goofy etc. also came from the same imagination!
Exactly, This applies to all those toys and goods.
Vishesh
lol they look cute
Yes
..but don’t Chinese stuff,they are supposed to contain some bad stuff…
Not always, whenever they feel like ripping off the Americans they paint the toy with Lead paint. If they usually have bad stuff, they get recalled after someone finds it.

Pirate is lovely
Yeah, I thought so too.
Where were these when I was 2 years old. Not fair, I want to go back and do it all over again today.
Really really cute.
Yeah…really cute.. Your kid’s bath toys? The number of such cute things in the market, I used to think I am gonna be bankrupt getting it all.
Guess I liked these more than my son even

True, Although I used to enjoy the live ones in a huge bath tub called the Vaigai River.
Not fair, I want to go back and do it all over again today.
You can still do it. Just don’t tell anyone
Really really cute.
I think so too!
Apar
Yeah…really cute.. Your kid’s bath toys?
Cute yes, and yeah it is a bath toy.
The number of such cute things in the market
Only car spare parts are ugly
I used to think I am gonna be bankrupt getting it all.
Only if you fill the house with atleast several thousand ducks.
Guess I liked these more than my son even
Sometimes I get a toy for the daughter so that we can play together. Like the Radio Controlled car I bought the other day.
I did not mean just the cute ducks…in general all those toys!!
The child in me I suppose. These days every time I head out, I end up getting a car for my son or expanding his geotrax set (pity they don’t have much of those stuff here in Chennai…but each time there is a new one, it ends up at home!
)The said set entertains the whole family! 
Car spare parts?! cute? why must they be?! just wondering!
I sometimes wonder how large might the market be for all these Chinese Nic-Nacs & Toys,the world over. Some one should do a Research report on this. Would b interesting.
cute things no comment, me allergic…
I liek the new theme tough, besh!
Apar
I did not mean just the cute ducks…in general all those toys!!
Yes, I knew that. I just wanted my reply to sound funny
The child in me I suppose.
Of course. Everyone has a child in them. It is a common misconception that only pregnant ladies have child(ren) in them.
These days every time I head out, I end up getting a car for my son
just kidding!
Whoa, a Car everytime! I hope it is just a Toy Car
or expanding his geotrax set
Waiting to get that, once my daughter passes the “choking hazard” age.
The said set entertains the whole family!
Agreed, some of the said toys are awesome for the whole family.
Car spare parts?! cute? why must they be?! just wondering!
Never mind, Just a bad attempt at a Chandler-Seinfeld-like humour. I just meant that there are so many cute things, the only things that you will find not cute is Car Spare parts.

I am glad you asked this, everyone else fell for the cute duck including me.
Some one should do a Research report on this.
That would a great post to do for Nita.

Wait till you get married and have a kid, You will have to overcome your allergy like how Batman faces his fear of Bats.
I liek the new theme tough, besh!
Thank you, I like it too. Plain, simple and neat.
Cute but they are poisonous
i like the new theme..
nice one…
these days creativity is getting better and better..
Whacky
Cute but they are poisonous
I think snakes and octopuses are poisonous. Cute ducks from China are only sometimes poisonous when they coat it with lead paint.
i like the new theme..
So do I.
Thank you
Arvind
nice one…
Thanks
these days creativity is getting better and better..
But not sure if it is for the better
I once used to think whether people can be obsessed with rubber ducks. Now I find the answer.

Well, it is not just ducks, it is cute toys in general.
Funny thing was, I got the first starter set of the geotrax series when my son was in the “choking hazard” age!! Well, I got it in his name
and played with it
Finding it tough to expand the set in India
guess that has curbed my shopping spree for that set!
Apar

That’s brave or probably normal in India. Did u do this in US? I did buy an RC car that says 8+ age that also have choking hazard. We play with that together.
Finding it tough to expand the set in India
Surprised, not even Bangalore has it ?
guess that has curbed my shopping spree for that set
Probably a good thing then
