Travel Game
I am looking for the Name and/or Maker of this travel game that my sister and I had growing up. I am just not sure of what it is called...I tried to "google" it and found nothing. It is a cylinder enclosed game (about the size of a 20oz pop bottle) that has either rings or a basketball hoop in it. You fill it up with water so the balls and rings float and you manually push a button on the bottom front of the cylinder that causes the rings/balls to move and get into the desired basket etc. Does anyone out there remember this game and what it is called or where I am able to purchase something similar?

Hello D.,
It is called Waterfuls. If you go on Amazon.com and type in Waterfuls....you should see a variety of them. Or you can type in Waterful by Tomy. I hope that this helps. I loved playing with it as a kid as well.
Have a great day.
H.

I don't remember the name but they do carry them usually at Cracker Barrel Restaurant. If you don't have one by you e-mail me and I can research it for you.

My brothers and I had those too! I also found TheFind.com listed a few similar a Basketball Water Challenge game from Target for $21.99 yikes, I doubt the version I remember cost that much, no way my mom would have bought it. The other one is a small party favor sized bowling theme one for $1.95 from BowlingShirt.com.

I think I am close in the names it is either Waterful Wonderful or Wonderful Waterful. I would check with Hasbro or maybe Matel for posible manufactures. My children had them I maybe I found them at Meijers, Target, K-mart, or something like that. A.
