| 1638 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo I never knew you were such a Batman devotee. Did you attach this velcro bat-symbol or did you buy it that way? I am intrigued. @Vaporman87 glad you can back me up on this. Speaking of Batmania, there was a VHS that came out around this time called "Holy Batmania!" covering the phenomenon. My copy no longer plays, but I remember this segment of Adam West as Batman at some rinky-dink fan event giving it his all to entertain. It was sad and inspiring at the same time. Interesting that you had Mantis, he came at the end of the line when Kenner started throwing in lesser known characters, just because they had cool designs or making up new ones altogether. @thecrow174 Yeah, the return of Indiana Jones and Ghostbusters in '89 were just some the highlights, I wonder if we will get a year like that in the 21st century. | Dec 15, 2014 |  | |
| 1998 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo Oh, you got me! The funniest part was when I went to pick her up and mispronounced her name which had a very exotic, eastern European spelling. Her Mom just gave me this look like, "You're taking my daughter out and you can't even say her name right? Good luck!" just in case you were wondering she wasn't a high school girl or anything, with the living at home deal. It's not of THOSE Internet dating stories. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 13, 2015 | |
| 3585 | Article | mickyarber | @vkimo thanks for the compliment on the formatting. I put some time into the pics. And yes, my old man really is the genuine article. You could ask him about this stuff now, and he'd just brush it off. Hate to hear that you missed out on these awesome toys of the 80s. I just can't imagine there will be anything that could ever top G.I. Joe for versatile fun. | 1986: The Year That Santa Became Real | Dec 15, 2016 | |
| 1696 | Article | NLogan | @vkimo what is really impressive is that neither of my parents could afford the presents they got me. My dad is a postal carrier and my mom a secretary. Now that I am an adult I wonder just how much debt they went into for those smiles on Christmas morning. | NLogan's Retro Christmas | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 4513 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo Yeah, it's hard to grasp all the tropes being satirized as a kid, it just seems like a fun fantasy adventure. UPDATE #2: I finally got my interview completed with the gentleman who worked for Topps in the 90s and worked on the never released LAH comic book insert trading cards. It's a doozy, so stay tuned. | Last Action Hero Movie Merchandise | Aug 13, 2018 | |
| 4910 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @vkimo Yeah, Shelley Long can be an acquired taste, but her character in Troop Beverly Hills is a total 180 from Diane on Cheers. Much kinder and goofier, less self-seriousness. | 10 Best Cameos In Troop Beverly Hills | Apr 18, 2019 | |
| 3218 | Article | NLogan | @vkimo, mine were tattooed former airborne rangers at 6'6" and 6'4" respectively. One put us on his Harley Davidson motorcycle and wheelied scaring the crap out of me. The other had the nickname "Tree" and had his own slot machine one armed bandit that you could play. It never escalated beyond beating them at chess and losing to them in arm wrestles. By the time I could actually take them in high school I was heavily into martial arts and they were both in their late 50s. But I still remember the, "Say boy, c'mere lookit this". | Bah Humbug! | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 353 | Article | Vaporman87 | @vkimo: I agree. Too often we tend to look at the past from only our own point of view as males. It is a breath of fresh air to see how things looked from a female perspective. Thanks again pikachulover! | 1995 & 1996 Fashion Trends (90's Girl Fashion) | Feb 18, 2013 | |
| 5194 | Article | Vaporman87 | @vkimo: I don't think so. It's possible they've done it as a Rifftrax release, but I'm pretty sure it was never riffed on via MST3K. | The Wraith - An 80's Cult Classic | May 05, 2020 | |
| 5441 | Article | onipar | @vkimo: NEPA, Pocono Mountain region. Yeah, where I moved to is much more sprawled out with nothing super "local" for kids. Not like running across the street in Brooklyn. :-p @Benjanime, Oof that stinks, sorry to hear it. | The Corner Store | Jun 10, 2021 | |
