When I first put these toys online back in 1994, this woman kept emailing me that she WAS the Spuz. Guess she got the term from some private joke in her own life. For me though, he's a disco worm.

FAKE HISTORY: A plush worm that was originally sold in discotheques in the mid seventies, the Spuz was "the cool man's fuzzy dice" to hang in cars. No one knows who created it, but being a product of the disco years, The Spuz has resurfaced as a highly collectible symbol of an era gone by. Still sold in various "hip shops", over ten thousand Spuz worms were sold this year already.
