| 5345 | Article | Julie | I had a wealthy childhood during the 70s and 80s until my country started to be destroyed and my parents became more and more impoverished. My toys were mostly battery powered, many robots, the fashion toys that were advertised during the 80s TV ads. I had them all. The vast list of toys I had was very memorable and unforgettable. I just got rid of them because even if used with care and zeal, their engines started to stop working in the late 90s. It was very sad to see so many toys having to be sold. I had a wardrobe just for them due to the space they took in my room. Good times. | Nov 16, 2020 |  | |
| 3564 | Article | mickyarber | I had a very similar experience (without the divorce) when I got my Super Nintendo for Christmas one year. I begged for it for months, and on Christmas morning, I opened an SNES game first. My parents played it off, saying it was a mistake and it was for my brother. (He already had and SNES since he was working). But at the end of the morning, there was the SNES in the last package. I seem to recall having a very similar, if not the exact same, remote controlled fighter jet once upon a time too. But good read, and you really triggered some old memories for me. | A Very Sega Christmas | Dec 12, 2016 | |
| 1858 | Article | echidna64 | I had a similar experience when my parents bought the movie Excalibur for me because I was into medieval times and mythology, BOY was I surprised after the first ten minutes of the movie! | Movie Misunderstandings | Jan 30, 2015 | |
| 3967 | Article | OldSchool80s | I had a similar experience and similar memories of seeing E.T. for the first time. It left quite an impression on me, too. It will always hold a special place for me and still holds up for me in a lot of ways, too. It is one of the iconic films of the decade and of my lifetime in my opinion. | Seeing E.T.

| 2776 | Article | massreality | I had a Michelangelo and Batman costume like that. I agree with Vaporman, those masks were hot and very uncomfortable. I also remember how thin the vinyl was. I'm pretty sure I ripped one of my costumes before he end of the night. | Halloween Night In The 80's | Oct 05, 2015 | |
| 4623 | Article | fuschnikt | I had a Lion-O dress up kit. It came with the weirdest mask with hair molded into the plastic. I dug it. | 80's Toy Dress-Up Kits | Oct 11, 2018 | |
| 71 | Video | Fulton4V | I had a few of the toys. I was a pretty big fan of the show also. | Centurions Intro | Dec 17, 2012 | |
| 304 | Article | Vaporman87 | I had a few of the Iron Man line from Toy Biz in the mid 90's, though they were the 10" scale figures. I believe one was called "Steel Tech Iron Man" and the armor was a slightly different design than that which he wore at that time. I can't agree more with the idea that variants water down a line with poorly designed or executed products. It's discouraging at times. The 200X MOTU line suffered from this. Just google "Disco Skeletor" and you'll see what I mean. Ugh. | The Curse of the Variant | Feb 12, 2013 | |
| 1377 | Article | Fulton4V | I had a few costumes like those when I was a child. I still have two of them but one is missing the mask. Really nice collection of things from your childhood. I wish I kept more of my own. Your really good at makeup for Halloween. I like the skeleton face the most of all. | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 05, 2014 | |
| 3963 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I had a feeling this would hit close to home for a lot of us. My story is far from unique as there are many great "Divorced Dads" out there. My Dad just happens to be the best ;) @Vaporman87 It's awesome that you got a new brother you liked out of the divorce. Is he the one in that hilarious video series of you trying to assassinate your younger brother and​ vice versa? @RickAceRhodes That is the dream of so many kids of divorced​ parents, what a story. @NLogan Your Dad story of video store drama is one of my favorites an his quote is such a "Dadism". Apparently Tarantula has one money pose and he's sticking with it. | Divorced Dad Memories | Jun 22, 2017 | |
