I had a couple, but I never knew their names until many years later. I never really did D&D. My cousins and I played some of the Marvel role playing games from the mid-80s, but that was it.

Really? It was more of a girl's toy but they had them too. There was a mid-80s cartoon and even a in theaters movie if I recall around 1985 or 86.

Yep, I really don't. Oh yeah I could tell it was aimed at girls but I didn't know any of that trivia you just provided Me. I believe I have said it before. There was some girls toys that I kinda liked. For example: My Little Pony. Back in the day of the mid to late 80s I was liking them commercials and stuff but I never got into them nor got any figures despite they were made by Hasbro. I believe I said it in My 12" figure topic but I'm not sure if you saw it or not but I once had a Barbie with jeans. I remember I got her at the old Target in 88 or so, My Mom got her for Me while We were there and she did asked Me why I wanted her and I said I like her so she just got her for Me. I just liked her and I don't know what I did with her. I think of her often of where I put her, I'd like to find her one day :roll: She was the only one I got and perhaps what was considered a "girls toy". I believe she was My inspiration of liking 12" female figures come the 2000s & 2010s. I did almost get that MOTU She-Ra Polly Pocket set that Matty Collector had in the early days but they sold out right away. I have however really liked females in main boys/mens' toys lines however like examples Aliens, Joes, Star Wars and especially Star Trek. I never ever wanted skip ANY female figure in any series I collected. Not that I ever wanted to be one but I have always thought that Girls & Women have some edges over Boys & Men like the comfort of some clothing and especially bicycles...oh man whomever invented that concept should have made it the opposite if ya know what I mean..Ouch :!:

Oh boy spooky times ahead :blbat: :blbaf: :blaq: :blhal: :blmm: :blsm: :blsm: :blww: Mad Monster Lab, I had that and did it many times but unfortunately I have no idea what I did with it, shame about that too but really cool PB ;)

Yeah, Rainbow Brite was pretty popular. My sister had some of the dolls. It made a bit of a comeback in the 2000s. I think there was a Nickelodeon cartoon and I remember unboxing stuff when I worked at Walmart back then.
