Me, too. I always saw the ads in comic books and really wanted them.

Remember Lazer Tag Academy? I'm sure most people don't, lol.



They have similar toy out now called Laser X, and my kids have a set, and they're fun for ten minutes, but not much longer, either one gets mad because the other is hiding their target, or the laser isn't picking up a hit, and they get frsutrated and quit. The technology doesn't seem to have gotten much better in 30 years. At least for the home edition.

I had a neon green one of these and I can't tell you how many times I got it stuck on my grandma's roof. She lived in a single-story house so you could see it laying there on the roof, laughing, mocking you until it got windy enough that it got blown off.

I can still feel that damn foam thing in my hands and visualize it turning the wrong way and landing on the roof. It's like Charlie Brown and the kite eating tree. If it's "Nerf or nothing", most days it was nothing.
