| 1037 | Article | Vaporman87 | M.U.S.C.L.E. and C.U.T.I.E. had to have been the most successful sets of immovable, tiny, plastic, monochromatic figures since the days of the little green army men. They somehow managed to capture the imaginations (and completist mentalities) of kids everywhere. I know I loved it when I was able to get a new addition to my collection. I think, to a certain extent, the same concept is big now with the "blind bag" mania that is happening at the moment. | Mar 12, 2014 |  | |
| 1036 | Article | pikachulover | I have some CUTIES actually I have the 2 sets you don't have. I liked the babies set. The gym set was pretty silly too. My mom also used to buy me the 4 packs, so I had some random figures from those. There seemed to be something about ballerinas. There was also a ballerina in the babies set. I didn't like that they were monochromatic, so I used to color on them with crayons and markers. I mostly colored their clothes. I remember coloring Mary Mee's bouquet with a blue crayon. I even brought some to art class in high school to draw for an assignment. We had to draw how the light was on plastic objects. The one punk girl in the class wanted to draw "these weird punk lady figures". | Revisiting C.U.T.I.E. | Mar 12, 2014 | |
| 1035 | Article | mickyarber | Good idea for an article, and well written. The Worst list, I fully agree. Slight rearrangement of the Best items for my personal taste, but the list as a whole I agree with. While I personally like the taste of the candy cigarettes, it's poor form to give them to kids. Good stuff. | Top 5 Best and Worst things to get in... | Mar 07, 2014 | |
| 1034 | Article | jrotunda | Nice read, good information! I played this game back in '96 before all the other games could sink their hooks - it always stayed with me through the years. It has the most diehard community of any online game I've seen (self included) and pretty intense pvp - always fascinated and kept me going on that aspect. Thanks for mentioning it's still around and free to play! | Meridian 59 Remembered | Mar 06, 2014 | |
| 1033 | Article | MissM | Such a fun article! I loved Dr. Pepper gum! It was so good. I am just having a blast looking at all these older foods. Really wonderful pictures and a very fun article. And Vaporman, you are so lucky to have McPizza near you! I feel like that was all a myth! lol | Yesterdays 1: Foods Long Gone | Mar 06, 2014 | |
| 1032 | Article | MissM | Yeah, he was a bit short changed with this article. I never had him and really all I knew of him from the vintage toy was the commercial. I liked the idea of him being created into all these parts. Glimmer was a fun toy and I loved reading about your memories with your sister. I liked rooted hair too, but I was never one for brushing it. I hated brushing doll hair and I love hair! I was always annoyed that the hair would never look the same as before. But there was something also realistic about rooted hair that made the toys seem more real. I don't know if that makes any sense. I am glad you posted this comment! | Guided by Light and Tales of a 1,000 Toys | Mar 06, 2014 | |
| 1031 | Article | MissM | Yeah, Rita did have an unusual sense of fashion. lol I guess that is what happens when one lives on the moon. They get a little behind on what works. The Evil Space Aliens were always kind of foolish, which is sad, because they do look fearsome. The sort of joke with Rita was that she would always have this mini meltdown towards those she thought were not doing their job of evil correctly. As for snarling kindly, I am not sure. But it certainly sounds like a fun sound to imagine. lol | Toy Talk with Miss M- Reunion Special | Mar 06, 2014 | |
| 1030 | Article | MissM | thecrow- Yes! I forgot about that with the Green Ranger. I think after all the circus of the Green Ranger coming out I kinda stopped watching as much as I would have liked. Benjanime- I had no idea that PR was the reason Sonic was cancelled. I really loved that show a lot. It was such a good show. I really miss good Sonic shows and toy lines. The stuff they have now feels like it is just the same Sonic figure over and over. Pikachulover- Kimberly was my favorite too! I forgot that the metallic ones did come from the movie. That was such a big deal too. My brother was so excited for the movie. Vaporman- Ya know, the Japanese invasion that followed PR was really something that did not capture my attention either. I liked PR and I liked Sailor Moon, but I didn't even really collect much SM. While I was still collecting and things like that, I was not invested in the Pokemon stuff and everything that followed. And these figures do scream mid 90's! I hate that the female bodies were the same as the males. It really does look really off. lol | Flipped Out for Power Rangers! | Mar 06, 2014 | |
| 1029 | Article | mickyarber | I also added a few things to this version of the article as an exclusive for RetroDaze. Didn't want to do just a straight repost. | Yesterdays 1: Foods Long Gone | Mar 05, 2014 | |
| 1028 | Article | Fulton4V | Morning funnies and chilitos were two of my favorites from this list. I wish Taco Bell had something like that today with all the same ingredents. I can still smell it now. The Mcdonalds in the town over from me serves chicken wings now and that is right beside a Kfc. | Yesterdays 1: Foods Long Gone | Mar 03, 2014 | |
