Zombie Apocalypse Ducky

Name: Zombie Apocalypse Ducky

Interests: Biting, scratching and infecting everyone other rubber ducky.
Where to Find: Zydeco Gifts in Victoria BC
Brand: Oriental Trading Company
Price: $2.00 Cdn

I want to be on the Walking Dead TV show.

Zombie Apocalypse Ducky is part of a set of 4 with these duckies. He has pink hair and what appears to be vampire fangs but really they are the only two teeth that haven’t fallen out of his mouth yet. He got the star shaped tear in his shirt from walking through a bakery and running into a sharp cookie cutter. Yes, that is blood on his forehead.

For Halloween tonight, we went to the Qualicum Beach pumpkin walk and got to see fireworks and Trick or Treat at some businesses in the daylight (which is a great idea for a 2 year old and 4.5 month old who get tired fast). Happy 2013 Halloween everyone!

Alfie junior Ducky

Name: Alfie Junior Ducky

Interests: Jumping in maple leaves and mowing the lawn.
Where to Find: Shades of Green in Parksville, BC
Brand: HeveaTM
Price: $12.95 Cdn

I smell like a rubber band.

I was shopping in downtown Parksville today with my sister and mother-in-law when we came across and eco home decor store that I thought might sell rubber duckies. Sure enough, I found one and an eco friendly organic teething cloth for my son too.

Alfie junior ducky was made in Spain. He is called junior because there is also a king size Alfie version of him. He is BPA, phthalate and PVC free. He doesn’t squeak but also doesn’t collect water in the tub so you don’t have to worry about mould collecting in a hole in his bottom or through his mouth (like some ducky squirt toys). He is also made of 100% natural rubber as well. This ducky looks similar to a Lanco ducky or another style of ducky I have seen before.

Generic Munchkin Temperature Ducky

Name: Generic Munchkin Temperature Ducky

Interests: Flying with Canadian Geese and Eagles.
Where to Find: Kids Stuff Ecetera and my Favourite Aunt’s
Brand: Munchkin
Price: $2.00 Cdn (second hand)

I have many creative friends.

Generic Munchkin Temperature Ducky is labelled Generic because she comes in many other outfits and themes from a surfer to a firefighter. She has an orange tongue and ribbed wings with blue eyes and eyelashes. She loves flying with Canadian Geese and Eagles. She is about the size of a mouse to such large birds but they don’t mind her company and she can keep up.

Interests: Watching planes movies (including war movies)
Where to Find: Grocery Stores
Brand: Kinder Surprise
Price: $1.39 Cdn

I want to be a Disney Plane.

Plane Ducky from a Kinder Surprise toy loves flying over water and is thinking of getting fitted with pontoons so he can land on water. He loves catching his food mid-flight. I used to have a ducky on wheels kinder surprise toy that one of my friends saved for me from her son’s toys. However, my daughter took it to her day home with her one day and lost it.

Barbie Bird-Ducky from the Etretchy Family

Name: Barbie Bird-Ducky from the Etretchy Family

Interests: Travelling around the world and watching Twilight in French
Where to Find: With a Barbie
Brand: Barbie
Price: Unknown

Tweuack (half tweet have quack)

This half duck have birdy or maybe all birdy Barbie toy is from a little girl whose family we stayed with while travelling around the world in 2009. I know I did my last RTW ducky posts a few weeks ago, but I debated if I can count this ducky as a duck or if it is a bird. I have to blog it because I didn’t find any rubber ducks in France and it was very sweet that on our last day the family we stayed with for free gave me this toy for my collection. I’ll always have fond memories of the Etretchy Family. We enjoyed bonding with them over cheese from Normandy (the best cheese I’ve ever had). They taught us how to eat cheese with just a tiny sliver of French bread and a large glass of red wine.

Earring and Charm Duckies

Name: Earring and Charm Duckies

Interests: Attending fashion show and staying up to date on the latest styles.
Where to Find: Claire’s for the charm
Brand: Claire’s for the charm
Price: $2.00 Cdn for the charm

Fashionable

I am not sure where I got these little tiny yellow plastic ducky earrings from. They aren’t as nice as my Etsy ducky earrings, but I might wear them with my Etsy earrings or give them to my daughter (if she decides to get her ears pierced). The charm is from Claire’s and this is also where I got my really cool Calendar Ducky. You never know what kind of duckies you can find in an accessory or home decor store.

Black Ninja Ducky

Name: Black Ninja Ducky 

Interests: Engineering and scrabble.
Where to Find: Zydeco Gifts
Brand: Oriental Trading Company
Price: $2.00 Cdn

Ninja by night - desk job by day.

Black Ninja Ducky loves to exercise. He teaches boot camp by the ocean on the weekends. His favourite workout is to have groups of 3 carry driftwood logs up and down the beach, stairs and part way up a mountain. He is an engineer and loves playing Words with Friends on his ipad and Scrabble.

Ducky Coaster

Name: Ducky Coaster

Interests: Sticking onto the bottom of glasses.
Where to Find: cafepress.ca
Brand: Cafe Press
Price: $15.00 Cdn

I’m stuck on you.

I think Ducky Coaster was taken from a picture of a myriad of duckies floating in a pond. The coaster is a ceramic tile. The only down side is when I put a glass of ice water on the coaster and forget to unstick it before I pick it up my glass. This results in the coaster crashing back onto my desk and nearly breaking. This can be quite the wake up call. The coaster is tough because it’s still in one piece.

Thimon Thez Ducky Cards

Name: Thimon Thez Ducky Cards

Interests: Saying things and watching people do them.
Where to Find: Carlton Cards
Brand: Thimon Thez
Price: $1.50 Cdn on sale

Do as Thimon Thez

Thimon Thez is a ducky who is featured on many cards for various occasions. I bought all these cards when they were on clearance. I also have the Thimon Thez square stack of note paper too. My favourite card in this set is the Thimon Thez in the bottle on the beach. I have a few of these cards that were purchased for me too. An entire series of rubber ducky cards would be cool too.

Purple Soap Ducky from Avon

Name: Purple Soap Ducky from Avon

Interests: Anything that does not involve water.
Where to Find: Avon
Brand: Avon
Price: Unknown

Don’t get me wet. I don’t want to die.

Purple Soap Ducky has a fear of water. She does not want to get wet, slippery and then disintegrate and die. She wants to remain a display soap for as long as she can. She’ll happily sit near your bathroom but not in your bathroom. If she is in the bathroom, there is a constant fear that she could accidentally slip into the tub or the sink and meet her demise.

Car Antenna Ducky

Name: Car Antenna Ducky

Interests: Listening to music.
Where to Find: On someone’s car antenna
Brand: Unknown
Price: Free

Enjoy the view.

My husband found me Car Antenna Ducky a few years ago. He was out and saw this styrofoam/stress ball material ducky stuck through the antenna on a car. He explained my passion for rubber duckies to the car’s owner and the car owner donated to the cause. I thought about putting his ducky on my car, but I didn’t want to lose him. This ducky has been through a lot. My daughter accidentally tore his head off twice (you can see the hot glue gun marks around his neck).

Bubble Necklace Duckies

Name: Bubble Necklace Duckies

Interests: Blowing bubbles in the wind.
Where to Find: Carlton Cards or dollar stores
Brand: American Greetings
Price: $2.99 Cdn

“One little two little three little bubbles... go pop pop pop.”-song from the library playgroup

Bubble Necklace Duckies all look the same. The ducky bubbles still in the package are from Carlton Cards. They are part of an Easter set with the chick and egg stickers inside. These bubbles don’t work very well but my 2.5 year old daughter enjoys pouring them out all over the sidewalk and wearing just the wand part of the necklace. The necklace is attached to the wand instead of the bubble container on most of these. You can thank me later for getting the annoying bubble song stuck in your head. It has been stuck in my head all day.
