| 3934 | Article | jkatz | I remember my family had a Joe Camel bath towel when I was really young. No idea where it came from or what happened to it, but given that I was regularly in contact with it for a period of time and never got addicted to smoking, I think all that hysteria was largely unfounded. *reaches for e-cigarette* | Jun 08, 2017 |  | |
| 3936 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @OldSchool80s I actually owned a New Kids On The Block doll that had a similar cassette gimmick, though it just featured an interview with the group from what I recall. @Vaporman87 When I worked at Disneyland as a costumed character I actually met M.C. Hammer while dressed as Kronk. He was still rocking a Walkman and it was 2001! @jkatz Yeah, Joe Camel was the least of our concerns. All of our Hollywood heroes from Ghostbusters to Arnold were lighting one up back in the day. | Antique Store Finds: Reborn | Jun 09, 2017 | |
| 3961 | Article | mickyarber | Of course I had the GI Joe lunch box, and I remember the mad scientist line of toys. My cousin Stevie had them, and like so many of his toys, the rest of us weren't allowed to touch them. I still need to get around to writing that "Stevie the Tyrant" article. Great read as always my friend. | Antique Store Finds: Reborn | Jun 22, 2017 | |
| 3931 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ha! Laughable, these. You have to love Adam X. Seriously. Nothing screams "EXTREME!!!" more so than that guy. He makes every other "EXTREME!!!" style character look like Dick Tracy. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3933 | Article | jkatz | Disagree about Comix Zone. Sure, it's not a complex or deep game, but it still holds up pretty well all these years later...Sketch Turner's design aside. I never heard of Combo Man before, but when I was 9 or 10 I had the same exact idea-combine a bunch of superhero costume pieces into a new, "original" character. Goes to show you the level of creativity those 90s ad execs had. I probably don't need to tell you this, being a comics fan and all, but there was a lot of great series in the 90s too! I'd be interested in seeing your opinion on those as a follow up. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 08, 2017 | |
| 3938 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I remember being baffled by my friend's SuperPro comics because he seemed like the antithesis of every comic book nerd's desires. We're reading comics because we suck at sports, stop rubbing it in our faces! I recently played Comic Zone for the first time after seeing the ads for years and I'm with jkatz, it's actually a really innovative game. But the character designs are completely of the era. Morph was definitely a dud character on the show, but I enjoyed playing with his action figure that came with a decapitated Wolverine head. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 09, 2017 | |
| 3940 | Article | Benjanime | i believe sketch turner was intentionally a dorky hero. his lines were corny enough as they were. | My Five Favorite Super Losers of the 90's | Jun 09, 2017 | |
| 3944 | Article | Vaporman87 | I have a similar fondness for Showbiz Pizza. I read about your memories at DZ and I can feel myself back in Showbiz experiencing many of the same things. Also, I love this line: "...my dad, who could be mistaken for a full grown bear in jeans..." LOL | Discovery Zone: Memories of a Ball Pit | Jun 21, 2017 | |
| 3964 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I feel like I was just 1 year too old to have taken advantage of the fun promised by DZ. I remember the commercials, but it always struck me as a place for little kids, so I never gave it a chance. Probably missed out on a great time and settled for family fun center/arcade entertainment. | Discovery Zone: Memories of a Ball Pit | Jun 22, 2017 | |
| 4012 | Article | Superman | I've got plenty of fond memories of Discovery Zone. I loved those mazes as a kid. Like your family, mine never could have afforded a trip to Disneyland, so I guess Discovery Zone was in a way "my" Disneyland. | Discovery Zone: Memories of a Ball Pit | Jul 24, 2017 | |
