He will save the human race...

 

[Zamial]

I have a few more but I will stop with this one for now...

 

[Dawnhulio]

does he have the one that's the battlestar that shoots out the foam fighters from like a rubber band powered shooter?- i think it had two triggers on it and you could shoot out two of the fighters at the same or separate times...
i really wish i would have done less drugs so i wouldn't need forums like this to remember my childhood...

I think so but believe a few pieces are missing / broken. Hubby was trying to explain how this toy worked but kept shaking his head lamenting over the loss. He didn't play with these as much as his Star Wars collection.

Also, his original Jabba the Hut figurine is missing a movable arm... if anyone finds it he'd be very appreciative of it...

 

[Dawnhulio]

Remember those?

fixed it.

Actually, Wonder Woman just made me think of Underoos....

 

[Zamial]

and this may age a few folks...

These were an EPIC fail with a childhood friend. This kid got the Superman Underoos. He got home 10 minutes before the babysitter got home from grade school 1 time, got in them, tied his blanket around his neck and climbed to the top of the silo. Babysitter pulls in and tries to "talk him down". He keeps telling her he will "fly down." That poor woman had to call his father home from the fire dept... I am pretty sure his dad had to climb up to get him...

But I only ever heard of 2...but I thought there were more "more popular" shows that had that dog at the end.

Dukes of Hazzard and The A-Team came to mind for me but obviously not on the list.

 

[JeepDiver]

I have a few more but I will stop with this one for now...

I wore two of those out playing with them.

 

[Pumbaa]

tried to see if this was already up but short on time this morning and 56 pages takes a bit . . .

 

[masonsjax]

My friend and I were just describing the high beam foot switch to a younger friend the other night that had never heard of such a thing.

I had that red telephone looking game too. Loved the jump the peg mode.

 

[machinelf]

Yes! Was just thinking about posting this one too.

Merlin!

Here is another sweet toy...

If you did not recognize my other 2, I will give the names and what they were...

Spectreman - Old TV show like Godzilla but more violent/more martial arts like fights with giant monsters...

The other pic was Chickenman. Chickenman actually was before my time but my father found a record (if you have to ask you are much to young) that was called Chickenman Returns. I played that record a LOT and will never forget it. It was originally a comedy radio show. If you ever get the chance to give it a listen it is worth the hour of your life I promise!

The TV of the day:

The scariest show on it:

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Took the kid to a A&W last night and got to explain these things to him . . . (it was next to a abandoned drive in)

Now do you know what it was for when it was mounted on the tranny tunnel in and old truck?

 

[glenn514]

^^^Yuppers! It was probably a Chevy truck...and it engaged the starter!

Jr College (1991) I had a 74 'Duster. A friend hooked me up with one of her buddies, that was a spoiled little rich girl, who had a brand new car. We were driving to dinner and I put my low beams on when a car passed.
Her: Wow, this car has automatic lights?
Me: What are you talking about?
Her: Your car's lights just changed and you didn't touch anything on the steering wheel.



I should have really messed with her and hit the manual foot operated windshield washer pump

[Revvy]
