| 1346 | Article | Vaporman87 | In answer to that question, it could be worse. Stinkor. Great article! I myself enjoyed the Slime Pit, but aside from that I played very little with slime related toys. I think the down sides that you described here were all it took to make me NOT a slime fan. Silly Putty on the other hand... | Sep 30, 2014 |  | |
| 1347 | Article | pikachulover | I liked to play with the vending machine slime you could get for a quarter. I like silly putty too. When I was like 8 I made my own slime out of dried up playdoh and water. I was trying to revive it, but I made slime instead. I used to use it as baby food for my dolls and "food" in my play dishes. Some of the dishes are stained from the slime I made. Nickelodeon Floam was awful! It made a mess everywhere! Zand was better. | Slime Time! | Sep 30, 2014 | |
| 1348 | Article | Vaporman87 | @pikachulover: Somehow I am seeing that mixture of water and Playdoh as coming out looking like the dinner served in Better Off Dead... <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/heP3s725hSA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> | Slime Time! | Sep 30, 2014 | |
| 1349 | Article | pikachulover | My dolls weren't eating french fries and Perrier. It was more runny than slimy. | Slime Time! | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1350 | Article | Vaporman87 | I can recall the hours upon hours I spent collecting the images for the VHS Covers section of the site from VHS Wasteland (with the owner's permission, mind you) and having to sort out the really gruesome images from those that could safely be viewed here. I purposefully left out the horror section because they were just so horrific, some of them. That is a testament to the effectiveness of the VHS cover. As you said, you had only a few ways to attract a customer outside of giant ad campaigns and being viewed on thousands of movie screens. The thing is, after so many times renting that eye-catching film with the great VHS cover and being sorely disappointed with the actual film, you start to catch on. But apparently that didn't stop others from making the same mistake, because the market was FLOODED with cheap direct to video movies for SO LONG! But I really feel like the VHS cover was an art form unto itself. A really great cover could be all the difference between losing your hat or scoring big. | The Lost Art of VHS Boxes | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1351 | Video | Mr Magic | I was busy playing with a beloved member of my family: My Sega Genesis LOL. I had gotten it for my birthday that day. Mom and dad could pull off a nice surprise. :D | ABC Saturday Morning Commercials | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1352 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Pretty unique selections here. So are these box art examples from Greek releases? Is that why I've never seen this wrap-around style of VHS art before? I feel like trips to the video store would have been even cooler if the back of the box wasn't just text and 2-3 small photos, but part of a complete mural. | The Lost Art of VHS Boxes | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1353 | Article | Vaporman87 | Your right. The wrap around style is sweet. Not something you saw an awful lot of back in the day. | The Lost Art of VHS Boxes | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1354 | Article | jkatz | @Hoju Koolander I don't think the wraparound style was exclusively Greek. I can't think of any examples atm but I'm positive it's been done in the states too. Also, didn't know swearing was discouraged here. I'll try to tone it down next time. | The Lost Art of VHS Boxes | Oct 01, 2014 | |
| 1355 | Article | Vaporman87 | It's cool jkatz. I usually leave enough there so that it's obvious what the author wrote, but also keep it friendly to those who don't care for it. | The Lost Art of VHS Boxes | Oct 01, 2014 | |
