I know of some stuff called "friendly plastic" which came in strips 7
inches long and about 1.5 inches wide, which sounds about the same as
polymorph. You can get what looks like the same stuff from here:

It also comes in pellets:

Friendly plastic could be softened in hot water. These may be the same
materials. An easy way to find out might be to request a Material Safety
Data Sheet?

Wow!  That seems like interesting stuff - I found a second link for it here:

But I can't find anyplace that sells it in the USA. (Both of those links are
to UK).

Maybe it's called something different here?  Does anyone know?  I have a
dozen uses for something like this!
