Toys of the 80's

[freedom78]

If I still had Snake Mountain and Castle Grayskull plus a few figures, I'm telling you I would break them out right now and become a Master of the Universe.

I had a few assorted figures here and there from other series/movies, but HE-Man was where it was at for me.

Oh, hell yes I had Castle Grayskull!  I loved He-Man, and also GI Joe.

Does anyone still remember The Crash Dummies?

They were the last toys I played with in the early nineties, and I loved them.

I still have Castle Greyskull stashed somewhere, but not Snake Mountain because my mom gave it away to one of my cousins (because I was 'too old' to play with them anymore, hah, like that'll happen). I'm still bitter about that.

The Finnish National Museum is actually looking for people who would donate them Masters of the Universe action figures (for the category "popular toys in the 80s"), but I don't want to just give them away... They're MINE, MINE I tell you!!!

Was Snake Mountain that huge fucking thing that had like the track that went around it, that some little vehicle went around on??  I remember I got this thing for Christmas when I was little and I still have the pictures, but this thing was HUGE!!!  It was probably 4 feet wide or something crazy. Which one had the little rubber hand puppet type monster that you could put on your hand and make it come out of a hole? I think the monster was green?? Was that Castle Greyskull??  I still have all of my He-man toys up in the attic.  How about Moss Man??  Now that was innovative for it's time!!!

EDIT:  By the way, my favorite GI Joe toys were Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Serpentor (Dressed like a snake), Croc Master, Golobulus (red eye patch, bottom half of body was a serpent), Hydro Viper, ROAD PIG (Big fucking dude with white hair\flat top!!!), SUPER TROOPER!!, Destro (Gold Head), Backblast, ALLEY VIPER, Gnawgahyde (bad guy with the warthog)!!!!! 

GO TO THIS SITE FOR GI JOE TOYS BY YEAR TO BRING BACK SOME MEMORIES!!!!!!!  http://joes.propadeutic.com/1989.html

I went through 3 or 4 years and picked my favorites from when I was a kid because there is no way I would remember any of their names except probably Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow and Road Pig.  I think 1987-1989 had the coolest Joe's from when I still played with them.  Really anyone after 1989 that came out I hardly remember at all.

Holy SHIT!!!  I forgot they had The Fridge as a GI Joe as well!!!  WTF!!!???

WHAT THE HELL KIND OF MOSS MAN IS THAT!!!!??  I remember my Moss Man was like a fucking lint trap. He picked up every piece of fuzz or hair in the house. But he was one of my favs...

You better lock your doors because that Moss Man could disappear one of these days!!!

Should I also mention that I got a bunch of MISB TRansformers from back in the day

Could you explain to me how the dl works? I wanna play Wave Racer 64

[bazgnr]

Explain it to all of us, please.     

[jabba2]

ok u download the game which is usually under 2mb. then search for a rom emulator thats for atari,  genesis, nintendo whatever. You load the game file inside the rom emulator, which is basically a program that plays the game. I used to play Pirates Gold on genesis alot. That game sells on ebay for $40 sometimes.

I still have all my old C.O.P.S. figures sitting somewhere in my dad's house.  The toys and the cartoon show were the shit.

Still got assloads of Lego over there too.

[bazgnr]

Got it...thanks for that.
