1198ArticleVaporman87Did your school ever have games like bobbing for apples or the "mystery bag" fishing game where you drop your line behind an upright gym mat and somebody ties a bag on then pulls the string to let you know you've "caught" something?  Sep 03, 2014View
1197ArticleThatDudeintheHoodieSad part is that is slowly going to the wayside. You can't even bring in cupcakes without having someone complaining.TDitH goes Back to SchoolSep 03, 2014View
1196ArticleHoju KoolanderVery sweet story and vivid descriptions of your moments of childhood disappointment and elation. I wasn't the most competitive kid and didn't make much money in our school's Jog-A-Thon, but if a toy had been on the line I would have summoned "my speed of the puma".The Best Day EverSep 03, 2014View
1195ArticleHoju KoolanderVery cool topic. I totally remember one of my girl-friends (friend who was a girl) having a few of the aerobics themed C.U.T.I.E.S. figures. I never knew about the other varieties, but I got a good laugh out of the name "Leah Tard", totally not P.C. nowadays! Revisiting C.U.T.I.E.Sep 03, 2014View
1194ArticleVaporman87No doubt about it... Pizza Hut has had some really good promotional products to offer in the past. I don't know that they do much of that anymore though. I was reminded (by the article) that I too once owned a few of the Land Before Time vinyl puppets. They were really well done. I can't say I ever wore out a copy of the Coming Out Of Their Shells Tour cassette, but I did wear out my cassette of the Turtles movie soundtrack. I can still sing you entire songs from that album that have likely never been played anywhere outside of somebody's boom box. LOLPizza Hut PromotionsSep 03, 2014View
1193ArticleVaporman87Darn it! I don't know how many times now I have read about kids in school having cool parties (pajama parties, pizza parties, etc.). We never had parties in school. Maybe occasionally we would not have to actually do work in class, and instead sit and talk and snack, but we never had parties. We did have a Halloween celebration in elementary school though. It too had a Haunted House set up in one of the classrooms, and the gymnasium was littered with games, food, and contests. It was fun!TDitH goes Back to SchoolSep 03, 2014View
1192ArticleHoju KoolanderAwesome article. I totally remember Golden Girls. I was a fan of the G.L.O.W. TV show, so they always caught my eye as having a similar glittery 80's glamour and power. What I remember is that She-Ra could always be found at Toys R Us, but I only ever saw Golden Girls in the toy aisle of the local drug store. They never quite made it to the big stage in my area, I never even knew they had commericials, but then again, I wasn't watching much My Little Pony back then.Attack of the Warrior Women!Sep 02, 2014View
1191ArticleHoju Koolander"Heck, until recently I thought MOTU was a specialty line of toys for juvenile amputees", LOL, classic. Oh the moment of toy buying embarrassment, I know it all too well. Just replace Batman figure with Shannon Doherty from 90210 Barbie doll (totally a for real incident) and you've got my moment of shame. Oh no, I shouldn't have shared that, is your Dad going to have me deported? ;)Masters of the Toybox Sep 02, 2014View
1190ArticleHoju Koolander'95 was a huge year for my musical tastes as well, I can sing at least one line from each of the songs you listed and consider most of them to be essential for an Ultimate 90's playlist. The Power Rangers movie was a major even for me, but yeah, the movie continuity not mixing with the TV series kind of blew it for me. But I did like that song, "Trouble" from the soundtrack and Ivan Ooze was pretty hilarious.The Summer of 1995Sep 02, 2014View
1189ArticleVaporman87I think much of the reason that the She-Ra series seemed to benefit from better stories and backgrounds, was that the team at Filmation had lots of time to flesh out stuff and hone their development of the property first with He-Man. I could be wrong, but I've heard that said in "He-Man" circles for years. Also... Hordak may be a step up from Skeletor, but at least He-Man only had ONE annoying comic relief. In She-Ra we get anywhere for two to four of those (Madam Razz, her broom, Kowl, and Hordak's pet). LOLNew Eyes on He-Man and She-RaSep 02, 2014View
