| 1159 | Article | vkimo | Fun article! I picked up a classic Larami 100 about a year ago. More than 20 years old but works great. I just use it to play with the dogs now. | Jul 02, 2014 |  | |
| 1208 | Article | vkimo | That's hilarious about the TV set! I remember seeing the first Plasma TVs that came out with my parents at a high end electronics store. 10,000 dollars! It looked amazing then I bet a 200 Wal-Mart TV looks better now. It seems like the furniture market is dominated by a few large companies now. I remember back in California you could go downtown to San Francisco and get the cheap chinese furniture from various warehouse stores. I wish I had pictures of this stuff, the designs were outrageous. Zebra print couched, lamps with hydra like bulbs...it was great. | Retro Thrifting | Sep 07, 2014 | |
| 1214 | Article | vkimo | One of my favorite mini fig lines were Z Bots. They were made by Micro Machines and looked like little robots. There were tons of them and I think I have exactly 1 left from the dozens I had as a kid. | The Mini & The Mighty | Sep 08, 2014 | |
| 1216 | Article | vkimo | There's actually a Pound Puppy at the thrift store now haha it's been there a few days. I found one about 2 years ago still in the cardboard dog house, that was cool. | Retro Thrifting | Sep 08, 2014 | |
| 1262 | Article | vkimo | I have to agree as well. As much as I liked Goosebumps, AYAOTD was better executed. One of the major differences between the story lines is that AYAOTD usually had a "happy" ending where as Goosebumps always had a twist at the end. Both shows are enjoyable though because I was the same age as the kids when the shows came out so the look and feel hits home. | 90's Vs: Goosebumps vs Are You Afraid of the Dark | Sep 16, 2014 | |
| 1284 | Article | vkimo | I agree 110% on how modern horror lacks charisma and that right mix of 11 herbs and spices. If I want to get grossed out I'll just around looking for roadkill! | What to Watch on Halloween | Sep 20, 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 | |
| 1319 | Article | vkimo | Will Dr. Timewarp be a reoccurring alter ego of Hoju Koolander? Very fun article. And bonus points on the actual vintage shots inside a Toys R Us! It was always an idea of mine as a youngster to buy a Toys R Us and just lock it up for 15 years then reopen it as a museum. How cool would that be? I remember my Toys R us having all metal cages in the gaming section. It was maximum security there. I'm talking if you wanted a game the associate helping you had one key and the manager had the other. Both keys had to be inserted at precisely the right time and turned in sync. Maybe I over exaggerated that part... As for the Super Toy run, well that was a running fantasy all the way until I was almost a teen, which was replaced by fantasies of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, aherm. There was a really interesting AMA on Reddit from a guy who won it way back when, worth a read: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/zkc78/i_won_the_nickelodeon_super_toy_run_in_1995_when/ | Timewarp: Toys R Us 1987 | Sep 24, 2014 | |
| 1322 | Article | vkimo | @Vapor I was thinking the same thing. Of all the MOTU (And any toy line really) merchandising, it's the promo stuff that's the most valuable. Store displays, event promotional items, etc. | Timewarp: Toys R Us 1987 | Sep 24, 2014 | |
