The Fetus Popple is a unique creation. What is a Fetus Popple you ask? Well let me explain. Lindsay Parker co-owner, of “Without A Pulse” (withoutapulse.com) made the “Fetus Popple” five years ago for embryology class.
She got the concept from Popples. Popples were little animals that could change into little balls of fluff. (Do you remember them?) If you don’t then check out this 1980’s Popple’s tv commercial. The Popples was a 30-minute cartoon based on a series of toys created by American Greeting Cards and Mattel in the 80’s.
Lindsay thought that the way Pobbles were created would be a useful way of illustrating the various pouch within the pouch structure of fetal membranes, therefore she created the Fetus Pobble.
Creative isn’t it? Does anyone else remember Popples?

Hmmm. Looks like Wal-Mart removed “midge” pretty quick. I think it may have been Ken’s child…

Sy Rumor has it Ken was gay. The baby belong to Midge’s husband Alan Sherwood. Alan and Midge are married. You are not implying that Midge had an affair with Ken now are you?
Have you not seen Earring Magic Ken?

Earing magic Ken? So if Ken was batting for the other team, and it isn’t Alans… I haven’t checked out Barbie since I was “old enough to know better”, but she isnt a Hermaphrodite was she?

I don’t think she is hermaphrodite. I believe G.I. Joe had feelings for barbie.

Ah Geez… G.I Joe? Didn’t he have a cross species illegal relationship with My Little Pony?
He has no sense of feeling for anyone does he. It is no wonder he was removed from the forces.

G.I Joe with my little pony? I know nothing about that and I don’t want to.
Anyhow, we should really be talking Fetus Popple.
