This is the first console I ever owned that was bought brand new at the store. It brought me hours of enjoyment for years. I still have mine to this day but it's in storage.

Ah Furby, I thought they were cool. I never had one though but they were like updated Teddy Ruxpin for the 90s in a way. Amazing how popular they were and their quite expensive as I speak.

By the way, I said it earlier and now it's finished, I just posted My NES Collection showcase, go check it out and I also showcased some great St. Louis books in My Odds & Ends topic as well, go check it all out when ya can ;)

Wow PB, there's some classic stuff here today :o

WCW/nWo Revenge - Oh man this was one of My most fave games ever :!: You saw earlier I showcased My strategy guide so yeah, this was kinda huge for Me back then. This is THQ's second major game for the N64 (WCW/nWo World tour was the first) and it's engine was new at the time and it helped make today's WWE 2K games. WWF would get them to do their games till they went went out of business hence 2K. EA would do WCW's final games. One day I gotta showcase My N64 WCW & WWF games!

I wasn't really familiar with that Micronauts by Mego but gosh that looked fun :)

The Millennium Falcon - oh man, that was so classic. This came out too early for Me as I wasn't even born yet :o So I didn't the figures till ROTJ with some ESB here and there. This was wonderful, Kenner did a great job there and the scale seemed nice. The compartments and stuff looked good too. I have Chewie & Solo but Mine are slightly different. I love how cool that commercial looks and how the kids are in the backyard with the trees, blue sky and all that :)

I'll do a bit for today ;)

Here is a cool commercial of a hint of what I got. I have that Solo, Storm Trooper & Biker Scout plus Wicket :) I do have Leia but she is Boushh.



Not sure if you knew about these, Kenner made Micro SW in the original lines as well and I have some of them and while I have misplaced a bit, their still great overall. The figures were actually METAL and heavy for their very small size :shock: The only one I have from this commercial in the Hoth Ion Cannon Base.



Now, I'm sure you knew Galoob did SW Micro Machines. They are actually much smaller than the Kenner micro ones if you can believe that :? :batconfused: :wwhuh: :smgasp: I have a big SW MM collection and I do have the Micro Machines Millennium Falcon, its a beauty. Really I had as much fun with them as I did with the Kenner & Hasbro figures. I stopped collecting them in 96 but off and on I think about getting some of the ones I missed before Hasbro took them over from like 96, 97, and 98.



I have all of these heads, they are awesome, I just loved the diorama and scene possibilities and the way they looked :)



I will showcase these in time :)

That's all from Me for today PB, hope you liked it ;)

That Hoth World looks familiar. I do kind of remember the smaller figures, though I was never a big fan. Even things like MASK, were too small for me.
