Current Goal

"Soup Guy" wants to see the South Pole, or at the very least Antarctica. Make sure you take photos of him in exotic locales along the way (e.g. volcanoes, beaches, glaciers, etc.).  Any comments about toys from your youth and photographs of “Soup Guy” achieving his goals would be greatly appreciated.

About This Item

Soup Guy

Say hello to "Soup Guy”. He is a member of "Daddy's old toys".

Soup Guy is clearly an early American frontiersman. From his stance you can tell he had bad intentions on his mind for some unfortunate soul. But try explaining that to a two-year-old child. My oldest daughter loved to play with “Daddy’s old toys” when she was little. These toys largely consisted of plastic army men, Alamo soldiers, and Indians of every color in the rainbow. While she played with him (and several of his cohorts) in the bathtub one day I came up with this name. (I couldn’t actually tell her what his true intentions were, could I?) Thus it occurred to me that he needed a new career in life and since we had measuring cups that looked like cooking pots he became the guy that stirred the soup. (His musket makes a great ladle, don’t you think?) His friends – red, yellow, and orange Indians – became his fellow restaurant staff. So “Soup Guy”, “Bread Guy”, “Corn Guy” and the others got a new lease on play life.

I hope you enjoy the story behind “Soup Guy” and will help him along toward his destination. Again, any comments about toys from your youth and photographs of “Soup Guy” achieving his goals would be greatly appreciated.

found in a large map case. left a jeep in his place! I actually think he may be steering a raft with his rifle instead of swinging it as a club! I have tried to research this as it might be a historical occurence. will keep you informed... sorry for the late log...
