Hmmm...never heard of Socket Poppers. Interesting concept.

Huh, really Oh yes it was indeed

Oooooohhhhh boy, Ouija Boards We bought one at an old resale shop long ago (I may post that shop one day in My Odds & Ends) in the early mid 90s. Let Me tall ya, you can think what you want but believe Me when I say those things are real and not bum-steer. It actually moves with you having the absolute lightest touch. A lot of stuff has come true as to what it said long ago. I may elaborate on this later on

Damn. Gotta love those GI Joe commercials. That Snow Cat is awesome.

OK, I see we're getting back into the mist of things, I'll see about mustering up stuff later soon

I had some of those Joes but never could get the Snow Cat. Joes always did have some the best commercials. That SW Droid Factory was so sweet. I would have loved that but I wasn't even born when that one came out Cool stuff PB

That was one huge Transformers I remember how them She-Re figures were and people being like their girls toys and how even Mattel was aiming it as a series for girls but I never saw the cartoon that way and I still don't Many, many years later both MOTU & POP would be for both genders or at least that's how it was when MOTUC was on the Matty Board & He-Man.org cause there was female collectors on there back then so that stuff was thrown out the window that was said "aiming". Anyway I do not recall seeing the original POP figures in the stores but I know I would have wanted them if I saw them especially She-Ra & Cattra. By time the 200X She-Re was made for SDCC (Michael Crawford picked her up for Me about 20 years ago this year believe it or not) it was quite sweet cause she had real hair and all that and you could comb it with her included comb weapon. When the MOTUC versions finally came to be I was pretty excited for them cause figure wise they were new to Me since I didn't have the originals. I especially loved the concept version of NA She-Ra & Mermista with her ability to be a human & a mermaid. Nice PB

I was always jealous of kids in 80s toy commercials who ahd really cool places outside to play with their toys. I grew up in duplexes until I was 11 and the backyard was usually just a drab flat of grass and a busted-up driveway. No fun to be had anywhere.
