I’ve died and gone to heaven. Reminds me of the old joke “Why does Edward Woodward have 4 D’s in his name?”
“Because otherwise he’d be called Ewar Woowar”
GI Joe is great

Oh HELL YES! I had Gaiking (on left) and my neighbor had the one on the right (not actual pic or ours, mind you). I took the chest missle-launcher out (whole thing could be removed from the back) and put GI Joes in him. It was like a Trojan-Robot.
Honestly, that’s pretty much how I used all toys other than GI Joe. They had to some way be useful to the Joes (or Cobra, for that matter).[/quote]
Man I loved those things! That was back before all the safety crap came out. When you could actually put someone?s eye out with the missiles from across the room.

I downloaded all those not too long ago. I’m sure they’re all up on youtube.
This one kills me:
Anyone on here old enough to remember the 70’s GI Joe?

I got to play with my uncle’s a bit. He had two or three of the figures and the bubble copter. That thing was sweet.
I couldn’t get into them for too long, though. After playing with my mini-Joe’s those things just seemed like…well, dolls.

Still have mine somewhere. Far cooler than the little toys you kids got stuck with.

I had a Viewmaster 3D thingy. Where you put these round photo disks in to it and watched a sort of slide show. My fav disk was the UFO TV show one. I really loved that show. Here is a refresher on the theme song.
And the scary UFO sound. Always freaked me out.

Cooler than a Boombox that can turn into a badass giant robot? You must be kidding.
MicroMachines anyone?

Any one remember BIG TRAK. I could never program mine very well. I suppose this could be thought of as the very first Mars rover. Money says the guys that designed the Mars Rover each had a Big Trac as a kid.

What was the name of the RED Shogun Warrior? IT had points sticking out of it’s head.
One not mentioned: Battlestar Galactica. Had the Viper fighters and Cylon Raiders that shot small red pieces to simulate lazers…until some kid swallowed it and they made them not shoot out.
