Was reminded of this in another thread. Been discussed before, but still a fun thing to reminisce about.

Some of my favorites from childhood...

The Starbird (Milton Bradley)

Didn't this emit sounds as you moved it up and down?

Though my Father was unhappy with the thought of me "playing with dolls", as he put it.

However my Sister's Barbies were always happy when "Joe" came home form a mission!

Yep, and it could get ear-piercingly high if you pushed it. They came out with a smaller version and an enemy ship too, if I recall correctly.

A couple of other favorites...

Micronauts (Mego)

I bugged the living daylights out of my mom to get me these things, especially after they came out with Godzilla.

      Ocho says Leggette is coming to see him

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      He was a raw receiver.  NFL average for receivers to come into their own is 3 years.  There is no doubt he has been a disappointment.  No reason to ship him off on his rookie contract.  He has the ability- and he has made some fantastic catches.    Color me 1 that is more than willing to see what he does next season.  Isn't going to cost the team anything to do so.

      Ocho says Leggette is coming to see him

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Is Ocho going to run routes for him and catch the ball too? Because that is the only way I can see this helping, but hey at least the dude is trying something because he just saw his stock drop heavily in yr2, from COKER balling in big spots and TMAC winning OROY hitting 1K in his 1st year in the NFL! (Oooooh that felt good typing!) I still think he may be a serviceable WR but honestly DM still needs to keep flooding the WR room with talent imo, so XL better try something and quick. Otherwise he will be another bust and washed out of league in 2-3 years.
