THIS?!

It would be the best xmas evar if this showed up under my tree! Perfect coffee table toy!

 

Haha that thing looks like fun.
I remember a childhood toy of some glow worm... its face glowed, I think? But had a stuffed/soft body, that had batteries in it.

That's how old I am. I believe this toy can be used to estimate my age.

 

Yeah I had the glow worm too. I miss Voltron.... And stone washed jeans

 

I bet your wife would love that. LOL

sure you guys don't have any grandkids floating around you don't know about?

 

I used to play with Lincoln logs and old *** hot wheels......the one that were steel and were heavy. Do any of you remember "Pickles" it was a series of kids books.

hiwords......your such a dik!

 

there are some companies that bought some of the old toys and are making them again, although the quality is not as good. I got my kids rock'em sock'em robots last year. (the one where the robots are in a ring and you move them around with a connected handle with thumb buttons to punch)
Anybody remember the Whirlybird chopper that was on a stiff wire that you controlled with a joystick to move up and down and back and forth?

 

i have a glow worm....no....wait....are we talking about the same toy???

 

Naughty, naughty, Ms. Kelly

My dream toy was the Radio Shack TRS-80 computer with the 8" (true) "floppy" discs, was the size of a microwave oven and required you to program it every time you turned it on... but hey! back in '79 that was cutting edge sheet then!

Now I carry an iPhone 100x more computing power a 10000x more memory storage than that thing ever had in the palm of my hand! Boy how 30 years can change things...

and damn! I feel old - thanks ya farker!

 

yeah, i think this is one of those sting operations where they lure the criminals in then bust em on the spot.

i think somebody is trying to lure all the old people into this "remember when" thread, then knock us over the head and steal our wallets.

i'm not buying it.
i'm 16 so don't mess with me!!!
