| 1333 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Morning 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. | Sep 25, 2014 |  | |
| 1334 | Article | Hoju 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 1987 | Sep 25, 2014 | |
| 1338 | Article | Hoju Koolander | It'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, 2014 | |
| 1339 | Article | Hoju 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 Experience | Sep 27, 2014 | |
| 1340 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Very universal and true on the best list, though spider-rings never did it for me. On the worst list I would add money. Not because free money is bad, but the houses that did this usually gave out nickels. Maybe you could get a piece of Bazooka Joe gum at 7-11 for that price, but the disappointment of getting 5 cents that wasn't even enough for a vending machine was pretty major for a kid who watched Scrooge McDuck swimming in the stuff every afternoon. | Top 5 Best and Worst things to get in... | Sep 27, 2014 | |
| 1345 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @NLogan I thought I remembered that being part of the deal. Still, as incompetent as Beast-Man was, would he really be your first choice of evil minion? | Slime Time! | Sep 29, 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 | |
| 1357 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @NLogan That is an awesome story. I assume the clerk was being a punk to your Dad? If not, I feel bad for the kid that was just reporting what the computer said. Either way he learned a lesson in "common sense" that day. | Timewarp: Blockbuster Video 1996 | Oct 02, 2014 | |
| 1368 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Packed to the gills with Halloween goodness, the Creature would approve! Your love ofnthe holiday ismplain to see. Thanks for that odyssey of great costumes and memorabilia. I would have loved to have enjoyed classic Monster Movies in 3-D on TV, instead all we got were John Wayne films. But I was there at 7-11 to get my Hondo glasses nonetheless. Loved those spooky LPs. I had a Haunted Mansion record growing up that dramatized the ride, I can still hear the Raven's eery caw. Those orange monster books were a favorite for me as well, the one for Murders at the Rue Morgue was the only one I considered boring, so it only got one check out from the school library. Happiest of Halloweens to you and your family! | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 04, 2014 | |
| 1369 | Article | Hoju Koolander | You are as always the king of mood setting layouts, the 8 bit monsters in the borders were great. Poor Steve, it was always special to me when the adults handing out candy were dressed up, it really amplified the spirit of the night. The soda displays were always epic, especially when Elvira and the Universal Monsters were involved thanks to Pepsi and Doritos. Good stuff! | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 04, 2014 | |
