This group of GLO FRIENDS items is the two portable carrying cases for transporting Glo Friends finger puppets, or simply displaying them. Both were made by the Tara Toy Corp & Hasbro.

1.   1985 GLO FRIENDS Collectors Case - Holds 12 finger puppets. This is a fairly easy item to find when collecting glo friends. There are also two versions. Most are with Yellow trim, others are White. Also, if you are looking to purchase one, check for any damage to the snaps, handle, crease in the top of the case (where the Moon's hat gets bent) and cracks in the inner tray that holds the dolls.     ----- $ -----

2.   1986 GLO FRIENDS Collectors Showcase - Holds 8 finger puppets. This is a very hard to find item. Especially the box and all of the pieces that go with it. For the handful I have seen sold, most are missing the pieces. Sometimes the feet too. Your set should be complete with the two feet, and 10 pegs. The case only holds 8 finger puppets, so two are extra.     ----- $$ -----

If you didn't know, in a different post about Lunch Boxes, I show another case. Because it's sealed without any information on it about what it is, I assume it's a lunch box. It has a carrying strap, and the depth of the box is wide enough to hold finger puppets, but not a thermos. So, it could be a Carrying Case. Check out my other post for more details!

Here's a group of two GLO FRIENDS Lunch Boxes. Well, at least I'm pretty sure the yellow one is. Since it's sealed in shrink, and has no item description on it, I can only assume it is a lunch box. But, it isn't wide enough for a thermos to fit in there. So, I guess I'll just have to wait to find one loose, or someone to tell me what the heck it is! Until then, I'm calling it a lunch box!! ;) 

1.   1986 Hasbro GLO FRIENDS Lunch Box with Thermos. I think this was only sold to the US market, but don't know for sure. They are fairly common. You should be able to pick one up cheap. Also, you should know that I have seen at least 2 different thermos designs. One is a lighter shade of pink (or white) and is square shaped instead of round.      ***** $ *****

2.   1986 Hasbro GLO FRIENDS Lunch Box? Item is sealed in shrink. Only type of advertising decal on it is the sticker on the front that says "See us glow in the dark". Most of the design (on both sides) glows. There is a plastic handle on top, as well as a yellow nylon shoulder strap. So, it could be a purse or small overnite bag. The depth of the box would also allow it to be a carrying case for the small dolls. I'm not sure where this was made or sold.      ***** $$ - $$$ *****
