Had a few slinkyes.

Oh, Jiffy Pop!

Thanks for the memories!

How about Major Matt Mason ???

Status: offline 		Greetings Zap,
I had all of these toys except frogman and fuzzy Joe. Those playsets: Knights w/Castle, Fort Apache, Bootcamp & Cape Kennedy gave very many hours of fun.
I remember my first GI Joe and several others that I got as a kid. Loved the Jiffy pop and Cracker Jack w/prize in box. Local supermarket now carries both.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I have gotten some of the slinkys for my 3 year old grandson along w/GLJoe and Jiffy Pop.

Status: offline 		I had Fort Apache, and Hot Wheels, but my fav was the fuzzy G.I.Joe, had the helo and the Secret of the Mummy´s Tomb. I had all the Action G.I.Joes except the redhead LOL!

Remember the Pop Corn pan, and the Cracker Jacks, I still remember a nasty song we sang in school about the Cracker Jacks

Then as a older teen, Estes Rockets and HO train sets

Thanks for the flashback, when I saw the mummy GI kit at the end of the video I freaked out! Thought I would never see that again!

And Force Commander. And let's not forget the mecha-horses, Andromeda and Oberon. You could combine a Micronaut with his horse and obtain a mecha-centaur.

Here in Italy they were so successful that two more of them were produced basically for the Italian market: King Atlas (red) and Green Baron (er... green).



...And the mega-badass Emperor!



I still have Baron Karza and Force Commander with their horses somewhere in my attic. Time for a trip up there...
