    Not from America but has he-man and care bears.



    1978 star wars toys on the news.



    "star wars may become the next Disney and in 20 years might be celebration r2-d2s birthday the same as mickey mouse!"

    The irony of those words.

    They can give me that omega supreme boxed if they don't want it.



    I had a snoopy snow cone maker. It was so hard to crush the ice as a kid.

    Wow, that Kiddie City commercial has everything from the '80s: big hair, bright clothes, bad dancing and the worst music jingle that I won't be able to get out of my head the rest of this whole day.

    This thread is hitting me hard in the nostalgia department. I love seeing all those old ads Gaastra. :) 

    *looks at bottom of ad* "Nothing Ever Sold At List Price" and "Prices will be no higher through dec. 25th". While I miss TRU, I really miss the TRU from the 80s and early 90s. Before the nothing sold at list price meant above list price and prices on certain items would climb just after release (example: TRU MP-10 Prime was $99.99 regular price upon release then climbed to $130 regular price in a matter of a few months).

    Weird to see a full ad just for the Monsterbots.

    Hey, I see a Star Wars Power Droid!
    That’s the first action figure of any kind I remember getting. I started early with the robots :D 

    Hey, it’s Monchichis :D 

    I used to have that Baseball Kid pitching machine. I had totally forgotten about it until I saw that picture. Not surprisingly, it didn’t work very well.
