18 Variants

Mini Boglins were Ideal's pocket money spin-off from 1991: solid little rubbery figures sold in blind packs, mostly in the UK and Italy. Every one belongs to a tribe with a Chief, Scout, Spy and Messenger, and new tribes kept coming until 1994.
Complete checklist of 108 Mini Boglins figures across 13 series by Ideal, 1991-1994. Updated 27 October 2026.
















One of the six tribes from 1991, led by Chief Trog. Scout Trek joined in 1992 and Messenger Talk in 1994, and Chief Trog turns up in more colours than almost anyone.
Head of the Clumsies, found in a whopping 18 colours, more than almost any other Mini Boglin.
18 Variants
The Clumsies' spy, which seems a risky job for a tribe named after falling over things.
14 Variants
A Clumsy that only came in bright neon, so it's easy to spot even when it trips over.
6 Variants
Shares its name with British slang for cheap junk, though collectors would beg to differ.
12 Variants
An original 1991 Clumsy that came in plain sand and blue as well as a run of neon shades.
8 Variants
A Clumsy called Trap, which feels like asking for trouble in a tribe this accident prone.
13 Variants
A grumbly sounding name for a 1991 Clumsy, which came in a dozen different colours.
12 Variants
Sixteen colours of this Clumsy exist, from mustard to neon blue, so completists have work to do.

A fitting name for a scout, joining the Clumsies in 1992 in glow in the dark green or purple.
2 Variants
Joined in 1994 to carry the Clumsies' news, and it's hard to think of a better name for the job.
5 Variants
A first wave tribe under Chief Bug, with Blarf, Blurp, Bog, Boik and Burg. Scout Blink, a glow in the dark extra, came along in 1992.
Pretty much the noise you'd make after eating something dodgy, on a first wave Freak.
11 Variants
Somewhere between a burp and a blurt, this 1991 Freak came in ten colours.

10 Variants
The Freaks' chief, fittingly called Bug, and made in silver and gold as well as the usual shades.
14 Variants
A glow in the dark extra for the Freaks in 1992, and a scout named Blink had better not miss anything.
