1293ArticleHoju KoolanderYeah, I totally forgot about ol' Icabod. That's a great one! Sep 20, 2014View
1311ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87-You're Dad met Ric Flair? All I can say is "Whooo!" Hey contributing to MOTU is way beyond my TV appearance, people actually have your work in their collections. @NLogan-That summer crush story is great. I didn't have the technical set-up to transfer VHS and do screen caps when I wrote the Great Pretenders article all those years back, so now that I do it seemed the perfect time to create a better version of that article with visual documentation. @vkimo-I look forward to your Toni Braxton cover album dropping soon.KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come TrueSep 23, 2014View
1317ArticleHoju KoolanderYeah, I think I'm going to order both those books from the points store as well. Fascinating story I'm sure. There's actually a documentary called Toy Masters this guy has been trying to put out for years featuring interviews with the major players in the MOTU story. The trailer (which apparently got taken down) has one of the creators referring to the other's claims as "Pure Barbarian Fiction".

1323ArticleHoju Koolander@vkimo: Yeah, that security cage for the games is a vivid memory for me as well. It was just so mysterious. It was actual dreams I've had of returning to Toys R Us in the 80's that inspired this article. And yes, the good Doctor has a few more adventures up his sleeve. @Vaporman87 Those costumes would be an amazing, if not stinky find. I used to manage a KB Toy Store and the highlight of my life was when Spider-Man came for an in-store (Barbie was OK too). It was in 2001, so I'm not sure if it qualifies for the site, but I took a lot of pictures with him. I even convinced him to pose in the storage room with the mask off as if he was Peter Parker doing a quick change. Yeah, I'm a little weird.Timewarp: Toys R Us 1987Sep 24, 2014View
1331ArticleHoju KoolanderKnott's Scary Farm is still on my to-do list. I grew up in Orange County and even worked as a character as Disneyland, but never made it over to a Halloween Haunt. I thought your description of the smell was very helpful in imagining myself getting terrorized by ghouls for hire. So what was your cousin dressed up as? @vkimo Those haunted attractions sound pretty kinky, uh yeah...A Haunting ExperienceSep 25, 2014View
1332ArticleHoju Koolander"...character AT Disneyland" Although a physical representation of the entire park would be a pretty awesome costume.A Haunting ExperienceSep 25, 2014View
1333ArticleHoju KoolanderMorning Funnies cereal was also for me one of the sugar cereals I was able to convince my parents to put in the shopping cart just once. To me the flavor was like amped-up Fruit Loops. I 100% agree on the old "McStyrofoam" containers. The designs were so iconic that they even made those transformer-like Happy Meal toys based on that classic look.Yesterdays 1: Foods Long GoneSep 25, 2014View
1334ArticleHoju Koolander@pikachulover Wow, That's awesome! The clearance aisle was a favorite of mine too. If I had lived that close to TRU I would have been there every day after school hassling the employees about the latest X-Men figures in person, rather than on the phone.Timewarp: Toys R Us 1987Sep 25, 2014View
1338ArticleHoju KoolanderIt's like even when you win, she wins. You should have just blamed the whole thing on your adamantium claws like, "yeah, I meant to do that." the fact that you planned to be Wolverine all day with no thought for a change of clothes is pretty great.Halloween 1995 Victory and Embarrassment Sep 27, 2014View
1339ArticleHoju Koolander@pikachulover I was Goofy, The Genie, Woody, Baloo, Brer Bear, Mr. Incredible, Kronk and my favorite, the Queen of Hearts. My version of the Queen was quite a diva.A Haunting ExperienceSep 27, 2014View
