+weston wanderer Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 A waterproof plastic one - no prizes for guessing what for! I have looked for a Kinder surprise but can't find any in the shops this year. I hope local cachers are not reading this Chris Quote Link to comment
+The Golem Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 My son's got a couple of these that I've been eyeing up, they're not waterproof but they're big enough to fit a small lock n' lock inside... Megablocks Dragons - you can get 'em at Woolies... Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 My local Somerfields supermarket has brightly coloured plastic Easter eggs (about 7" long x 4" diameter) called something like Marvel Heroes eggs. They "unscrew" to come apart in two halves and are filled with small novelties and packets of sweets. They are not waterproof, but you could put a small cliplock box inside one.

MrsB Thanks Mrs B but I need hen's egg size to fit into the appropriate receptacle. I'll try Woolies, check out the size. I'll have a fun time looking. Chris Quote Link to comment

+The Blorenges Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 You could always try one of these eggs. MrsB (just trying to help ) Quote Link to comment
+ryme-intrinseca Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 (edited) Just come down to Dorset, all the beaches are covered in little plastic eggs that came off of the grounded ship Napoli ! I assume you need it to be watertight though? The eggs I found on the beach have little air holes in. After floating round in the sea, the plastic toys were fine but the paper instructions had dissolved. You'd think it would be easy to put together a Kinder Egg toy with no instructions, wouldn't you?

+weston wanderer Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 I'd love to come down to Dorset! but it may be easier to email Lollybob. thanks all for your suggestions, Chris Quote Link to comment
+Alibags Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 The little plastic capsules out of kinder eggs are neither egg shaped nor waterproof. I know you have lots of them Lollybob, I encountered some of yours a while back! Shame I cannot post the pics. Quote Link to comment
