Removed this statement: "Len was sad, ultimately committing suicide." Looked like vandalism ENSSB ( talk) 23:06, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Removed information about Charles Steward and the toy being filled with packing peanuts.
If someone can cite these things then feel fgree to re-add them. But I think I read somewhere that the toy was actually filled with corn syrup. (even mentioned in the Plastic Man article) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Feddx ( talk • contribs) 15:31, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

The toy was filled with a thick corn starch and water or corn syrup mixture making a non newtonian fluid. When force is applied the fluid instantly hardens. Reports of injuries to children when struck with the toy. The toy when striking a child turned into a heavy rock hard club. Some reports speculated more injuries from the toy happened that weren't reported because children didn't report fearing the toy would be confiscated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.164.73.58 ( talk) 17:43, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
