1978ArticleNLoganMaybe we are so nostalgic because we needed toys and comic books to get through tough times. My parents are also divorced. I lived with my mom in apartment after apartment and went from school to school. I was perpetually the new kid. Now I always had my twin brother to play with but I was also jealous of those kids with the best friends they had known all of their lives. I had plenty of friends but never the life long kind. Three elementary schools, 3 Jr. Highs, and a high school later I relied heavily on my possessions that always came with me. I regret a few things that I did directed towards others as a kid. Being a new kid and a runt I had my share of being picked on, but we also knew well how to fight having ample opportunity. I had a fairly violent childhood. There was also two of us to tangle with and we weren't above blindsiding and dirty fighting. What did it matter we would probably be moving soon anyways. This article more than anything brings perspective on the changes now that we are adults and what we want our children to experience as they grow. Being The Fat KidFeb 12, 2015View
1977ArticleVaporman87LOL. Maybe, one day, that will be all anyone sees when they visit www.retrojunk.com. Scary.Remembering RetroJunkFeb 12, 2015View

1973vhsCoverVaporman87I love your description of this one. LOL. I didn't even realize Chuck Norris HAD a son... let alone did I know he tried his hand at acting. This looks amazingly hilarious. Perhaps we should skewer this one in the Theater some time.Survival GameFeb 12, 2015View
1972ArticlepikachuloverOk soda to my knowledge never came to my area. What did it taste like? I'm still holding old for Fruitopia to come back. Things Are Going To Be OKFeb 12, 2015View
1971ArticleVaporman87Mmmm... your description of OK makes me thirsty for some myself (if I was still allowing myself to drink soda, that is). This is a story I have lived through many times over. Some days I feel cursed that any food or drink product I enjoy will quickly disappear as soon as I proclaim it "good". The list is quite long... Oreo Cereal, Sugar Free Oreos, Snackwells mini chocolate chip cookies, Swordfish (though it's made a comeback everywhere now - FINALLY), etc. So you're certainly not alone in your affinity for things to consume that disappeared. Who knows... maybe one day everything WILL be "OK" again. :) P.S. Congrats on being the first to utilize the new "Color" background option. It looks great in white.Things Are Going To Be OKFeb 12, 2015View
1970ArticleVaporman87Now that you mention it... yes, that Iron Man does look like a alternate color Dead Pool. LOL. I'll never get over the shape shifting Punisher image though. The Curse of the VariantFeb 12, 2015View
1969VideoVaporman87I'm recalling an article here on useless variants... <a href="http://retro-daze.org/site/article/id/67">yeah, this one.</a> Slam Dunkin' Don? I wonder how many hapless kids made their parents buy that one? LOLTMNT MutationsFeb 12, 2015View
1968ArticleHoju Koolander@jkatz I always saw that one at the bookstore, but I opted for The Simpsons Family Album and Bart Simpson's Guide To Life. To your comment it definitely wasn't for kids, but anything animated will catch the eyes of a child, while adults don't give it a second glance. So it was inevitably going to be a favorite in the schoolyard.Simpsons Illustrated and 90's Magazine AdsFeb 11, 2015View
1967VideofuschniktSo true. I didn't go in for a lot of variants. Just undercover Don. I also had the Donatello from this line. I liked to make him pogo on his enemies. TMNT MutationsFeb 11, 2015View
