The Save Blinky Bart was only available from sending off a mail-in form along with proof of purchase of three other 4" Mattel Simpsons Figurines purchased between the dates of December 1, 1990 and March 31, 1991. The figure was a repainted version of the Bart Mattel figure featuring a white shirt with a picture of Blinky the three-eyed fish and the text "Save Blinky" on it. Due to the limited way to get the figure, and the poor sales of the Mattel figures, this particular figure was very scarce. As of July 2020, only three were known to be in the hands of collectors around the world.[1]
