(Speaking of getting high)

So do kids still build plastic models, or is it only adults waxing nostalgic?
 
You ever inadvertently or on purpose get high on that stuff?

I wish I ever thought as a kit to see if it was flammable.

Yes, is was. Even the dried balloons burned nicely.

In Illinois, they passed a law limiting the size of glue tubes in models and off the shelf. Before the law, you could get 16 oz tubes of the stuff.
 
As an aside, I used to love putting my old ganster rap cassette tapes into Teddy Ruxpin and letting that mutha phucker get DOWN.

ME TOO! Nothing like seeing a teddy bear go "YEEEEEEAAAAH BOOOIIIIII"
 
I've bought and built a few snap-tite kits with my boy. A few Estes Rockets too.

Had to show ID to buy the friggin glue.

I put together the models that require the glue. Usually do the war planes/tanks and then paint them. Thoroughly enjoy it!

My boys are 5 and 3. I sit with them to "help" them assemble the kits.










And then glue them together later that night (or they will be in pieces again the next day). I do the same with the Lego kits.

Otherwise I am in a constant state of rebuilding the toys.
 
I loved He-Man, had all of the action figures and even made my cat growing up as a kid my personal Battlecat.

I still have that (and play with it) and my 13 year old LOVES it. I have the additional dragon but always wished I had gotten the guard towers way back then..


Of course, my brother and I souped up the catapults so that they fired the things at a thousand miles per hour.

Awesome!!!

I remember a buddy and I finding a case of Mickey's malt liquor in a field by our house when I was 9 or 10. Nothing like malt liquor warmed by the sun!
 
Wisconsin people will remember the Two Fisted Slopper.

(For the rest, at the old Milwaukee Brewers stadium, they had the amber screen scoreboard where they could display all sorts of animation. [It's featured in Major League.] Anyway, one of the animations was a cartoon drunk guy staggering around with a beer in each hand and they'd tell us "Don't be the two-fisted slobber!")

You mean this guy?:

Before "bullying", bicycle helmets and the general pussifacation of today's youth, there were these gems.

I love the term "pussification"! Almost as much as I love the term "jackassery"! Thanks WW for a laugh out loud!
 
Speaking of the Brewers, remember the old Bernie Chalet?

(Bernie's avatar............;) )

Yep, it's at Lakefront Brewery. It has taps in it now (or are the taps under it? :drunk:) and the big mug has the Lakefront logo on it. They used to let you slide down the slide but someone decided that mixing drunks and a big slide isn't a good idea.

I hear Attanasio wanted to buy it back and Lakefront said sure, as long as you keep our logo on it. The Brewers declined.

For the love of God will someone post a picture of the Garbage Pail Kids for me?! I HATE my computer!!
