Crazy Bones Alkaline

gogo's crazy bones

My son came home from Nursery yesterday telling me all about these cool little men that his friend had brought in a special bag to show him, They were called Gogo’s he told me.  And he wanted some too.

I was stumped, I’ve never heard of Gogo’s. What are they? What do they do? Where do we even get them from? I really knew nothing about Gogos.

So we went off to the toyshop to search out some Gogo’s. I found out that there actually called Gogo’s CrazyBones and that there’s already 3 sets of them. We decided to start off with the Series one which come in red packets. 

There are 80 Gogo’s to collect from each collection. The good part is that they only cost £1.00 for a pack of 3, so you can easily build up a great collection with your pocket money. Shops up and down the country are also running Go gos swap shops as well, to help you complete your collection. You also get a sticker of each of your Gogo’s in each packet, that you can put into an album. Just another reason why they appeal to kids so much, all kids love collecting and sticker albums. Put them together and you’ve got a huge hit!

Here’s a bit of back history about Gogo’s Crazy Bones. Aparently this game of Crazy Bones has been played for hundreds of years, inspired by the ancient Greek game of Tabas. Tabas or also known as Astragals was originally played with sheep’s knuckle bones, hence the Crazy Bones name nice!

Thankfully the modern day Crazy Bones are made of plastic not bone. Each coming in 5 different colours, there are also 5 special rare Gogo’s which come in multicolour.

Here is a list of all the Gogo’s Crazy Bones – Series One
