| 5515 | Article | Benjanime | i actually didn't catch much of this show on TV airings, but i did watch various VHS tapes from my school classroom around 1996-1997, in total i think we all watched at least three of them throughout the school year, and it was the only time we saw them. i highly doubt we'll ever get a show like this ever again for a modern generation, though i don't count the netflix follow up. | Oct 03, 2021 |  | |
| 5467 | Article | twcfan92 | There's a toy that I've spent the last few years looking for with no leads. Which isn't too surprising considering that I only remember a few details. I got it for Christmas from my mom in 1989. It was my favorite present that year, and I remember taking it with me when we went to my grandparent's house later to celebrate Christmas with them. Anyway, whatever it was was in a grey box that looked like a briefcase. It had a white, plastic handle. What was inside? I have no idea! I believe it had something to do with cars, but that's just a good guess. I've done several Google searches. I also purchased and reviewed the Sears, JCPenney, Service Merchandise, and Radio Shack Christmas catalogs from that year. Nothing! At least nothing that made me think "that COULD be it." So it probably came from a local store that went out of business years ago. Damn. I did, however, find all of the Micro Machine light-up buildings and cars we got that year, but those were fairly easy to find. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5469 | Article | echidna64 | Great idea for an article and that is an awesome picture of you as a 90's kid. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5470 | Article | onipar | Thanks, echidna64! I've used that pic a couple times now, but I'm always finding something new in it I want to talk about. Like those cases of Micro Machines behind me. I still have those! I need to write about that one day too. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 11, 2021 | |
| 5468 | Article | onipar | @TWCFAN92 Ah, that's the hardest thing, when our own memories betray us. Your search sounds a lot like things I've done in the past to find lost things. I'll probably write an article about my search for a letter I wrote to a comic book in the 90s. The grey box thing sounds so familiar to me too. I'm going to think on it a while. It does feel like it could be a car type toy. Like maybe a little track with cars inside. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5464 | Article | onipar | @ Ben, Thanks! It's funny because it sounds like you and your brother had a similar age gap as me and mine. In 1994 I was 14, and Mike would have been 11. I vaguely remembering him enjoying the game, but maybe being a little impatient with it. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5460 | Article | onipar | @Vaporman, ah lost footage/pictures are always an incredible find. When you finally get to see the contents of those tapes, it will be a glorious day! I recently had a roll of film developed that I'd had since college, but the film was all but destroyed unfortunately. I have another story that fits into this category pretty well...maybe a future article. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5461 | Article | Benjanime | i feel like the omega virus was a board game that my older brother would have liked, in his early teens he was in this phase of buying action figures of robots and aliens among having posters in his room of them as well. i'm sure if i wasn't fueled by sugar candy back then i would have joined in with playing anyway. interesting to see some other obscure oddities here as well, i would have loved the spinjas! great article! | The Things We've Lost | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5466 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ahh man… that sucks about the college film. Who knows what might have been on it. More games to identify? | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5458 | Article | Vaporman87 | What a great idea for an article! Man, there are a wealth of things I’d like to have back. I still have cassette tapes that were meant to be used with the PXL2000, a low end video camera from Fisher-Price. It was my first video camera, and the video quality was black and white and pretty terrible. The version I got came with a small black and white TV that you could connect the camera to watch your videos. If I can find one online to buy someday, I can find out what is on those tapes. It would be the first time seeing their contents in over 3 decades. Other items I wish I still had… my Radio Shack Armatron, my programmable Big Trak, and my entire collection of Stomper vehicles and playset. There are several stuffed animals I wish I still had as well. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 07, 2021 | |
