Toys

[Gohron]

Ghostbusters and Star Wars toys were my thing, I wasn't even born for the time period you mention unfortunately.

God, how l loved the Ghostbusters toys. So many great stories. If you had the Ghostbusters house, you were probably the coolest kid on your street. That thing was beyond awesome. It could also double as a TMNT building if you took out the ghost containment unit and GB sign. And the life size power packs. I think one of my best Christmas's ever was the one that I got the Ghostbusters house and Power Master Optimus prime. =D

True story, while moving, my mother put my little tubs of ghostbuster slime in with the cleaning things. One of the ladies who was on the moving staff was putting said box of things on top of a shelf in the future laundry room and the tub fell out. The slime fell all over her and scared her half to death. She felt sick all day.

I had the Ghostbusters house, my dad used to buy me the slime everynow and then that you would put on the top and it would leak through. I had the car and probably close to all of the toys, no idea what's happened to them though, I might still have them.

One of these days I'm going to make a fake recruitment video for Cobra with all of my Dad's army surplus stuff. Anyone want in? It really wouldn't be that hard. I'd just need lots of blue jogging suits with the cobra sig on them.

You know, If there is a way that I could jump in on this I would

I had stages of toys i loved.It started out with He-Man i wanted every one, then i transfomers, then TMNT, i wanted everyone as well.

However why no Thundercats.. I love that stuff. I even had the Thundercats Lair... the biggest toy i ever owned...

star wars was my main, but gi-joe and transforemrs were great too. One write in i miss from my slightly older childhood was "Battle beasts" monster/humanoid toys with really cool weapons, good value(pack of 2 for 5 bucks) and a cheesy paper/rock/scissors gimmick that nobody used.

I will never to speak to anybody that votes fucking Power Rangers.

I think i had some of those. They were slightly larger than MUSCLE men, multicolored and wore armor. They had the sticker that you needed to warm up to show which element they were under, water, fire, wood i think. Those were cool. maybe they have something to do with all the furries around now, they would be a furry's wet dream.

I was mostly into Transformers, but owned more He-Man due to having cheap parents that wouldn't buy me many transformers. Behind those were MASK, Thundercats, Voltron, and Silverhawks. TMNT was in my second wave of toy buying, and i ended up with a ton of those too, but that was a different era. I never got into GI Joe, I was never much of a military buff.

BY THE POWER OF BLUE RANGERS SKULL!




He-man and Transformers for me. But really, LEGO serves them all.


P.S. The plural of Lego is Lego, you arsehole yankees.

But I remember that the rangers came out with these big ones with around 27 or so points of articulation.....You could pose those suckas like a sunovagun.

Transformers is wheres it's at, and before that the orginal SWs toys. GI joe kicked the shit out of TMNT with it's huge playset might. The GI Joe shuttle was 4 times as big as the technodrome.

Word. The G.I. Joe headquarters and Coba Terrordome (sp?) were freakin' awesome.

But the aircraft carrier kicks EVERYTHING's ass.

What ever happenned to that? Toy lines used to get awesomely huge playsets. You don't see much of that now.
