Whether it was Styx or Supertramp
This was one... at one time or another...

Had to have it
When I saw Kiss in 79, I bought this...
and of course...wore it for the next 28 days...
Now Playing...
Another book and record...
This was my younger brothers..
and here it is...
in all it's glory
Picked on in school...Reason 2
Yes...I owned one..Yes..
I wore it....
To school...once...
Only once...
Go fly a kite..
Kids really used to go outside once...
and when they did..
we flew kites..
and if you were awesome...
like me...You used this.
Now this was a frickin toy...
Shogun Warriors...
No idea what we did to deserve this type of awesomeness
We used him as Tonto...
Hartland were the earliest action figures my younger brother remembers...
Here are some we had
He might remember, he might not
My younger brother's toys were cutting edge at the time...
The digital electronic age was upon us and were reflected in his toys.
School sucked...But I survived
The Mead organizer...Wish I still had this...
and inside this one...a couple more memories...
okay...Not Truman though...
It happened again...
Looking through vintage toys sites...I came across this.
In all seriousness, as a child during the space race, I had no idea Ronald McDonald was wearing a space helmet until today.
Okay...an anti-hero of the 70s
Nothing was coller than a good bad guy
and for my younger brother it was the Hamburgular.
Popeye...My brother's hero of choice
My younger brother had two heros growing up,
The six Million Dollar Man, and Popeye.
He had this and carried everywhere
Strawberry was the flavor of the seventies...
One of my younger brother's favorite cereals.
And every child had a license plate that came out of a cereal box
in their lifetime.
Welcome to the basement...
The vehicle of choice in out basement...was the Krazy Kar.
This beast was mine....
What's in the bowl?
One of the best memories was morning breakfast.
Who didn't love grabbing the side of the box to examine the niacin levels.
I remember this prize...
It amused me, for about 20 minutes
Inside the box...
Cereal premiums were the best.
Best marketing tool ever invented.
It swayed our choices ALL the time
Wish I still had this....
My mom was into things that kept us quiet for days...
This item did the trick...for a little while at least
On the Fridge...
Once in a while as I look through images of collectables,
I find something that makes me smile. This is one of them.

He might not remember, But I do....
My younger brother had one of these....
I think between me and my older brother
we were able to 'retire' this sucker before
my brother was 4 years old.
