And those little suction cup/spring/plastic base thingies that when you press
down and wait an indeterminate length of time then shout with glee when they pop
up!

Spring tractor? Not sure what you mean.
Would pull-back/wind-up toys be considered spring toys?
And, I keep thinking about those dogs you can pull around with a Slinky for a
body. I guess those are just Slinkys, also.

Well, if they use a clock spring...like the one in the video, sure. Actually a
lot of the "antique toys" at that show (and I mean Antique versus whatever
people pulled from their basements) are spring driven toys like those.

I love them. I don't know what it is, but they're great. I usually hate Canada
too, except during the Olympics, when I'm in the States, or when I'm travelling
abroad.
I'm considering ordering the DVD, but I haven't found anyone nuts enough who'd
want the DVD too.
