| 1282 | Article | Vaporman87 | Uhg. Jolt! Terrible stuff. Still, I have a feeling those of us who remember it would by a 12 pack of it just for the heck of it. Now Ecto-Cooler on the other hand, I could see it having staying power IF they kept the Slimer/Ecto-Cooler branding. People having been clamoring for it for years (None moreso than Matt at DinoDrac - I think he might actually cry if they ever brought it back). Crystal Pepsi was cool, but like you said... it was basically Pepsi with no color. Nothing to write home about, but a neat gimmick for it's time. I am reminded of SNL's parody of the Crystal Pepsi schtick when they did the commercial for "Clear Gravy". LOL. Something about that was so gross... and just wrong. | Sep 19, 2014 |  | |
| 1283 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Ha, I totally remember that Crystal Gravy parody commercial on SNL Vaporman. So wrong, but so hilarious. One of the few variation I tried back in the day was the Caffein Free version of Crystal Pepsi, because I wasn't allowed to have actual cola. It was pretty unique, but I wouldn't say good. | These Beverages Need to Join the ReSurgence | Sep 19, 2014 | |
| 1292 | Article | pikachulover | I liked Crystal Pepsi. I really miss Fruitopia a lot. I miss 5th Avenue Seltzer too. Snapple isn't as good as it used to be. There aren't as many varieties as there used to be in the 90s. My cousins use to drink Jolt when they worked as scare actors. I've never tried it. I prefer Mt Dew. | These Beverages Need to Join the ReSurgence | Sep 20, 2014 | |
| 1303 | Article | Vaporman87 | Wow. Just... wow. I LOVE this story. This is something special. I can't even come close to providing a similar moment in my own life, at least not as far as sharing a moment with a superstar. KIDS, Incorporated was a show that I caught on an on-and-off basis. There would be times that I would be flipping through channels and catch the show, watch it to it's conclusion, and mostly forget about it. I was not one of those kids who ever thought I would be anybody famous or working with anybody famous. Only my dad can say that in my family. He spent some time at a dinner with Ric Flair once, and once met Johnny Bench I believe. I... didn't LOL. I suppose if I were to pick an accomplishment in life that might have produced a similar feeling, it would be the work I did for the Masters of the Universe comic book. To actually be able to contribute even the smallest, goofiest thing for a property I grew up loving so much, was really special... even if Mattel said I had to go after 3 issues. LOL. I think those weeks/months I did that work, I felt like I was doing something pretty cool that transcended my otherwise quiet and unassuming life. Wonderful story Hoju. | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1304 | Article | NLogan | Whoa! Now that is a claim to fame! I totally forgot about Kids Incorporated until now. I so remember watching it. | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1307 | Article | NLogan | Waitaminute! I'm pretty sure I have seen articles from you here and on other retro sites for over six years. You have been sitting on this little gem for that long without a peep! Unbelievable. Why didn't you post the pics in your previous Pretenders article? On a somewhat related side-note. Martika's Toy Soldiers was the anthem/theme song to a crush I had at a summer camp at a ski resort when I was around 11-12. We listened to the tape in her room. For those who don't know Martika (Marta = Gloria on Kids Inc). <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/LvdLovAaYzM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1308 | Article | vkimo | Yeah I remember reading your Kids Inc article on RetroJunk years back and I don't remember you getting down with Fergie! Great article and definitely a cool facet of your youth. | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1309 | Article | vkimo | Just watched the videos, that was awesome! You definitely had the personality that shows look for. If I were on stage as soon as the music hit I'd lay down on stage crying, leaving the audience to wonder if my anxiety induced performance to Toni Braxton's Un Break My Heart is rehearsed or not. And man, Fergie was smoking! In a career ending act of sabotage you should have tilted her back and planted a kiss. Woulda been worth it | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1310 | Article | NLogan | I never made the connection between Ryan Lambert in kids inc and monster squad until now. | KIDS, Incorporated: Dreams Come True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
| 1311 | Article | Hoju 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 True | Sep 23, 2014 | |
