Upsy Downsys
"Mattel's Happidiculous New World!"
By Euphrates




Upys Downsys are another popular offering from Mattel.  Made in 1969, each 2 1/2 inch 
Kiddle-meets-Goofy Grape looking creature came with a playland mat, accessories and a 
nonsensical nursery-rhyme name.  All of the individual mats could be placed together to 
make an Upsy Downsy Happidiculous world.  There were also books sold for each Upsy (right
side up) and Downsy (upside down), that described their adventures.


Upsy Downsys and their accessories can be found today for $25 to $50 loose, and as much
as $100-$175 for boxed figures and playsets.  The books generally sell for $5-$15.
