Nope, kids today have no idea hows cool & special that time was :) That's cool that Jakks is making Sonic the Hedgehog figures now, hopefully they'll keep up with it for years like they did the WWF figures and have like a complete lineup of characters. I'm a little surprised to see they made Mighty the Armadillo.

Here's Kenner's totally awesome Aliens series from 1992. This was a tremendous time as well. I recall it like it was yesterday when My Grandma got Me My first one at Venture which was The Scorpion Alien that you see at the climax of the this video. I was so thrilled when I saw them the first time...thank goodness I awoke in 2020 and got the ones that I needed that i couldn't get back in the day...one day I'll showcase My collection in time :)

Yes way, Acid. It took'em long enough, like I said, I'm surprised they made Mighty the Armadillo since he's still kinda obscure.

Oh I remember that Army Gear Commercial and the series by Galoob itself. While I have a ton of Micro Machines, I never got them, I really don't recall seeing them in stores.

Now this I recall in stores like it was yesterday. In 1995, Kenner made a really cool series of Superman figures that was based from The Death and Return of Superman comic which is is till one of the best comics ever IMO. This series is one of My big regrets of Me never wanting when I had the opportunity. Ah man I recall seeing the whole series at Venture in South Town with My Grandma and I just wasn't wanting them...years later I regretted it and I'm not sure why I ever wanted to get them and make up for that :smsmh: Here's this commercial :)



I got one more for tomorrow :smwink:

Never seen that one. I wasn't really watching cartoons around that time, so I didn't see those kinds of commecials.

That's great, I never knew that super fun looking Milton-Bradley Pac-Man Board Game before :) The other day I posted a very special showcase in My all-crucial Odds & Ends. It's of Imo's Pizza :!: I posted at least one commercial of them for Christmas last year. This special showcase I saved it all year as it I presented the 10th Anniversary of when I got their very special Baseball Card which I'm one of the very few people on this planet that has one. I introduced them, My memories & times and more. This also celebrates Imo's 60th Anniversary as well. When you have a chance, you can check it out here, it's a big one with bonus David Freese Commercials and a whole lot more ---> http://www.dctoyrevolution.org/post53240.html#p53240



This is setting up some Baseball Showcases coming soon for the postseason :)
